REMARKS ON VERBO-TONAL PHONETICS FOR A COMMUNICATIVE CONTEXT

Resumen

The aim of this paper is to make phonetic correction techniques available to foreign language teachers, especially to those who work in a communicative context (Arnold et al. 2005) and are not familiar with pronunciation class. This paper is divided into two sections: firstly, we will introduce the verbo-tonal method’s more general contributions (Asp 2006; Berré (ed.), 2005; Billières, 2002, 2014; Calvo and Murillo, 2012; Dalmau et al., 1985; Guberina, 1956, 1961; Guberina and Murillo 2008; Murillo, 2002; Intravaia, 2002; Renard, 1971, 1979, 2010; Renard and van Vlasselaer 1976; Roberge, 2002; etc.); secondly, we will propose some techniques to practice phonetic correction in Spanish. This proposal, however, can be applied to other languages as well.
