In adulthood, language learners often struggle to produce and perceive the sounds of a foreign language. In this interactive workshop, Danilo A. Lombardo, a phonetics researcher, will help you understand how the sounds of languages are articulated in the mouth and perceived by the ear and brain. Come discover effective ways to improve your pronunciation, such as visualizing articulatory positions and linking them simply to the International Phonetic Alphabet. A variety of examples will guide you through the pronunciation of consonants, vowels and tones of different languages.
