METHOD OF LEARNING PRONUNCIATION OF ENGLISH VOWEL

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve such a problem that since in the past phonetics, when pronouncing vowels, it is explained with the size of mouth opening, the position of a used tongue portion in utterance, and the operation of rounding the mouth, it was extremely difficult for a normal person (especially, a Japanese person) learning pronunciation of English for the fist time to master the pronunciation.;SOLUTION: In this learning method, fourteen vowel pronunciations frequently used in English and American English are mastered with the combination of five "positions of a jaw" and three "lateral widths of a lip at mouth opening".;COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
