Here is the revised set of word lists for the exam, this coming Monday.
Remember that when there are two alternatives, either is okay. The main thing I'm looking for is that you have an idea how transcription works and some of the range of possible pronunciations of words.
See you at the exam!
Today you'll need two things.
The first is dialogue 15 in horrible traditional spelling.
The second is the word lists for the upcoming (Monday, June 16, 2025) exam!
See y'all in class!
As mentioned earlier, I am leaving town in the morning for a conference and so there will be no class this week.
With any luck... I will have all the materials you will need for the exam by next Tuesday.
Enjoy your short lasting freedom!
See y'all next week.
There aren't going to be any. There's no sense in doing an hour with one group and then nothing with the second, so I'll be doing office hours (from 13.00-15.00) instead.
Look for me in my office (216B). If I'm not there I'll leave a note about where I can be found.
More information will be provided early next week (at the latest).
Enjoy your... Youvenalia? Jouvenileia? Whatever the hell it is, enjoy it.
For this week, you'll need:
Dialogue 14 in traditional orthography.
Dialogue 15 inphonemictranscription.
We'll also discuss some regional differences in the US as well as differences between GAE and RP.
See y'all in class!
This week, we will:
Relive the excitement of Dialogue 13! (fonetikaly!)
Relive the excietment of Dialogue 13 yet again! (tradishunul spellin')
Experience, for the first time, the splendor of Dialogue 14!
We will also continue discussing regional variation in American English!
See y'all in class!
For this week, you'll need....
Dialogue 13 in convenient peonhtic trnsarcpition!
This week's edition of Poetry Slam 2025!
See y'all in class!
