Pronunciation is in the Brain, not in the Mouth: A Cognitive Approach to Teaching it

This book introduces language as an infinite code of communication that is exclusively confined to human beings. More specifically, it investigates the cognitive roots of pronunciation in children and adults and the emergence of accent with adults when learning a second language (L2). Subsequently, any teaching of L2 pronunciation to adults should be premised on a multisensory and multicognitive approach covering a wide selection of teaching and learning strategies that are in line with the cognitive roots.
