One day, the letters begin to disagree about their sounds. The first letter in the alphabet, A, decides to start his own club. His name is Anthony and claims that his sound should be "aaahhh." He chooses his color to be that of the amazing avocado. Feeling lonely, Anthony asks E, whose name is Ethel, to join his club. Her sound is "eugh," and her color is the elegant eggshell. Later, I or Ignatius, joins the club with his sound, "i-i-i." The color he picks is the incredible indigo. Then the curious O follows Ignatius. Her sound is "aw-w-w," and opulent bronze becomes her color. The last one to join the club is U with his sound "uh-uh-uh." His favorite color is unbelievable umber. The five members-A, E, I, O, U-call their club the Vowel Club. How the Short Vowel Club Got Started may be of interest to parents and educators who want to teach their children vowel sounds.

Assuming little or no background knowledge and using original examples and exercises (with answers supplied), Understanding Phonetics provides you with an accessible introduction to the basics of phonetics and a comprehensive analysis of traditional phonetic theory - the articulation and physical characteristics of speech sounds. Examples from a wide range of languages are presented throughout using symbols of the International Phonetic Alphabet. To help you develop your skills in this alphabet, Understanding Phonetics includes ear-training exercises that are freely available online, along with audio files of authentic listening material, for you to download from www.routledge.com/cw/ashby. Understanding Phonetics outlines the production of consonants, vowels, phonation types, pitch and intonation, and aspects of connected speech. Reading through chapter by chapter, you will see your knowledge develop as you engage in the step-by-step phonetic study of a selected word. Understanding Phonetics is designed to be used not only as a class textbook but also for self-study. It can be read systematically or used for reference purposes.
