Elementary Phonetics : English, French, German; Their Theory and Practical Application in the Classroom (Classic Reprint) by W Scholle
Excerpt from Elementary Phonetics: English, French, German; Their Theory and Practical Application in the Classroom
This treatise forms part of a series of hooks dealing with the teaching of modern languages according to the so-called "New Method" or "Reform," two of which have already appeared, viz., First Steps in German, and A German Grammar.
The present volume is intended to serve as an introduction to the study of English, French, and German phonetics. It gives in the first place the necessary phonetic explanations and hints for the use of the English, French and German Sound Charts which we have drawn up, and which are intended for classroom purposes. Though not infrequently going beyond these explanations and hints, it remains elementary in treatment and substance, giving merely a good working knowledge of the subject; and the student who is desirous of increasing that knowledge, is strongly recommended to study one or more of the books mentioned on page 162 ff.
The chief features in the arrangement of the subject-matter are the following: -
(1) The description of the speech organs and their functions contains only what is essential and simple.
(2) With regard to the speech sounds, i.e., vowels and consonants, we have in the first place tried to give a clear idea of their production and nature.
