English Phonetics and Phonology
One of my former students spends her vacation studying for an exam.
I know what she is going through because some years ago, while in college, we used to study the same subject.
Having to study Makarenko was a nuisance.It is difficult to learn a language theoretically and not through practice.
Exams require definitions. Reading books like this becomes a mathematical problem or a jigsaw.
But in the end, I must admit that it was interesting.
Romanic languages as mine and Anglo-Saxon ones are so different! Thus,I tend to believe that books like the one below, offer the posibility to gain a new perspective upon the world. Simply by knowing that your way of naming the things is not unique or less poetic than the other's way of doing this. To me learning a new language is a lesson of tolerance and respect.
I still have lots of things to learn but I want to share what I know so far with you.
