Phonetic transcription:
• there is no punctuation in phonetic transcription (no capital letters, etc.)
• there may be symbols that look like punctuation, but they have a new (symbolic) meaning…
How's it going?

'' (an apostrophe)
IPA symbol for WORD STRESS
:: (a colon)
used in the IPA to indicate a LONG VOWEL

To master this complex system, you need:
• to understand a little bit about vowels
• to learn the sounds (and the symbols)
• to PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!

What is a vowel?
• How do you make a vowel sound?
• What do you do (with your mouth) to change from one vowel sound to another?
EXPERIMENT, and TELL ME (in English, obviously!)

Hilton
English Pronunciation
A vowel sound:• a reverberation of air in the mouth cavity
• vocal chords "on" (always) = "voiced" sound
1. the degree to which your mouth is open
2. the position of your tongue
determine which vowel you produce.

Homework:
• Study all the "long" vowels: booklet, pages 11, 15 (CAR), 16, 17 (MOON).
• For each vowel, try pronouncing the words.
• Look up any words you don't know in the dictionary (unilingual, preferably).
• Notice how many different ways each sound can be spelled!!
