In this unit I have learnt pronunciation and phonology. Phonology is the study, science, analysis and classification of the physical properties of sounds. This unit is emphasizing the areas of stress , rhythm, intonation as well as international phonetic alphabet and its use in helping students to come to an understanding of pronunciation of English. I have learnt about the individual sounds in connected speech, stress within words and stress within whole utterances. In the classroom there should be time given to pronunciation, stress, and intonation practice so as to make students aware of the importance of accuracy and clarity of communication. Intonation is the variation in the volume and pitch in a whole sentence. Whereas stress is more concerned with individual words. I have learnt Phonemic symbols, articulation that uses speech organs. There is a place of articulation and the manner of articulation. I have also learnt the teaching techniques for the pronunciation of individual sounds and when to teach pronunciation.
