In doing so it provides a much-needed update to the existing RP-based descriptions by which the sound system of British English is still known to many around the world..The book opens with an account of the rise and fall of RP, before turning to a systematic analysis of the phonetic developments between RP and contemporary Standard Southern British (SSB) in vowels, consonants, stress, connected speech and intonation. Topics covered include the anti-clockwise vowel shift, the use of glottal stops, ‘intrusive r‘, vocal fry and Uptalk. It concludes with a Mini Dictionary of well over 100 words illustrating the changes described throughout the book, and provides a chart of updated IPA vowel symbols..This book is an essentialresource for anyone interested in British pronunciation and sound change, including academics in phonetics, phonology, applied linguistics and English language; trainers of English teachers; English teachers themselves; teachers of voice and accent coaches | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | pronunciation; British English; accents; dialects; dialectology; sociophonetics; language variation; vowel | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-04357-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-04356-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-04357-5 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2019 |
