When you wants to learn a foreign language, for example English, you will have to
speak it. You have to try to speak in the way the native speakers speak the
language. They also have to be able to discriminate the contrastive sounds units,
that distinguish one utterance from another, the production level and on the
recognition level.
Imitation alone is sometimes not sufficient. People who learns a foreign language
should know a theory of phonetics, which tell them about the general mechanism of
producing the foreign speech sounds by means of their speech organs

3. Language a system of
conventional spoken,
manual (signed), or
written symbols by
means of which human
beings, as members of a
social group and
participants in its
culture, express
themselves. The
functions of language
include communication,
the expression of identity,
play imaginative
expression, and
emotional release.
Language’s also an
arbitrary vocal symbols
used as a means of
communication.

4. phonetics, the study of
speech sounds and their
physiological production
and acoustic qualities also
without regard to their
function. It deals with the
configurations of the vocal
tract used to produce
speech sounds (articulatory
phonetics)and the acoustic
properties of speech sounds
(acoustic phonetics).

5. Articulatory phonetics is the branch of phonetics concerned with describing the speech sounds of
the world's languages in terms of their articulations, that is, the movements and/or positions of
the vocal organs (articulators). The most influential system of articulatory description and
transcription of speech sounds has been that of the International Phonetic Association (IPA),
which aims to provide a phonetic symbol for every phoneme for every language. In the IPA
tradition, speech is characterized as sequences of separate speech segments (consonants and
vowels), and each sound is defined as a combination of articulatory phonetic properties. Several
laboratory techniques are used to obtain knowledge about the articulations of speech sounds,
which in turn is used in modeling of speech production itself, and of articulatory-acoustic
relations. Basically, articulatory phoneticians make a study on the interaction of various organs
of speech and their role in producing different sounds. These parts are also known as
Articulators.
The main articulators are the tongue, the upper lip, the lower lip, the upper teeth, the upper gum
ridge (alveolar ridge), the hard palate, the velum (soft palate), the uvula (free-hanging end of the
soft palate), the pharyngeal wall, and the glottis (space between the vocal cords)

6. Acoustic phonetics is the study of the physical properties of speech, and aims
to analyse sound wave signals that occur within speech through varying
frequencies, amplitudes and durations. acoustic phoneticsnounthe branch of
science dealing with the sounds of speech in terms of their frequency,
duration, intensity, etc., especially as analyzed by means of instruments like
the sound spectrograph and the oscillograph.Compare articulatory phonetics.a
composite branch of physics and linguistics that treats sound proper as it
relates to speech.the branch of phonetics dealing with the transmission of
sounds to the ear and the reception of them by the ear prior to neurological
processing.
For example, you may well hear the thumping of the bass drum before all else.
This is because a sound produced at one place, say a loudspeaker, sets up a
sound wave that travels through the acoustic medium.

8. BE A GOOD LISTENER
Before learning to speak you must learn to listen. English words are sometimes
very difficult to hear such as sleep and slip, chin and shin, and many more. If
you can tell the difference, it will make it easier for you to pronounce.You can
learn to listen through Youtube, Podcasts , or other content on the internet
that is in English. Don't forget not to use subtitles so you can develop your
listening and pronunciation skills .

9. To improve your
pronunciation skills , you
can learn phonetic symbols.
Phonetic symbols are
symbols that are useful in
explaining how sounds are
formed. Why is there a
phonetic symbol? More
specifically, the phonetics of
symbols are used to
determine how to read a
word. With the phonetics of
symbols we can know
exactly how the sound of a
word.

10. English accents are very diverse and in each dialect has a different pronunciation,
word, and even slang . So before you decide to learn English, determine one of the
accents you want to master so that your journey in learning is easier and more
structured.The most common English accents are American English and British
English . These two accents have an influence on your journey to learn English. In
the American accent the R produced at the end of a word is louder than the famous
English accent with the silent R. Choose an accent that suits you whether it's
American, British, Australian or something else, it doesn't matter. However, this is
not the same as removing your original accent, yes. Slang and accent have different
meanings. You can use an American accent with a Javanese accent, you know. So,
be proud of your natural accent!

11. As in the English term "Practice makes perfect" which means the best way to hone
a skill is to practice without stopping. Find a partner to practice pronunciation.
Make sure your partner has the same interests so you can grow together.
