Learning Objectives

The goal of the course is the development of native-like spoken French, through intense practice in correct production of the sounds of the language. Emphasis will be placed on intonation patterns, rhythm, liaison, etc. Oral practice is given within a communicative and cultural context, with attention to features of current usage referring to standard French. The course will also address issues in theoretical phonetics, particularly articulatory description and phonetic transcriptions using the International Phonetic Alphabet.
