Have you been learning English for a long time but feel that you still don’t understand English people properly or, what’s worse, you can’t make yourself understood? This is a rather common problem among Spanish speakers, who have spent many years of their life attending English classes, have a good command of English grammar and vocabulary, yet still have serious difficulties when it comes to speaking English. Most of these problems could be overcome if Spanish speakers were better acquainted with English pronunciation since this is an area in which English and Spanish differ most.
This book is aimed at helping Spanish speakers to overcome their communication problems in English by introducing the most relevant issues of English pronunciation and comparing them with those of Spanish pronunciation. It covers not only vowels and consonants but also other aspects such as stress, rhythm, intonation, words in company, combinations of sounds and accent placement.
The book is accompanied by a CD-ROM with audio material and interactive exercises.
