Why is the use of the IPA necessary?
• IPA makes the learning of pronunciation easier
• IPA allows learners to work autonomously on pronunciation
• IPA makes the association of words with the same pronunciation easier: to, two, too /tu/
• IPA allows the differenciation of words with similar endings: thought /θɔt/ though/ðoʊ/, tough/tʌf/ y through/θru/
![Page 18: OPEN TUTORING SESSION PRONUNCIATION: USING IPA EFFECTIVELY](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681305c550346895d961f33/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Suggestions
• Identify the sound and the phonetic symbol that represents it.
• Practice the pronunciation of the sounds whose symbols are different from the alphabet letters.
• Use the IPA every day to prepare the new vocabulary you may encounter in the following lesson. Choose at least 5 words daily.
![Page 19: OPEN TUTORING SESSION PRONUNCIATION: USING IPA EFFECTIVELY](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681305c550346895d961f33/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
By learning to use the IPA I will understand that:
• As I learn new vocabulary it is important that I get familiar with its pronunciation.
• Minor changes in pronunciation can alter meanings significantly.
• There are sounds especially difficult for Hispanics since they are not present in their native language.
• I can find patterns that can help me understand how to pronounce certain words.
• This strategy is there to help you. Using the on-line tools will facilitate understanding of it.
