520			_a"Second language acquisition has rapidly grown as a field over the past decade, as our knowledge of the ways in which children and adults learn and use a second language has become crucial for effective language teaching. In addition to this important 'applied' function, research into second language acquisition has also informed the fields of linguistics and psychology in general, as it has shed light on the differences between native and non-native models of human language and cognition. The focus of this accessible new textbook is second language speech - that is, how speakers perceive, process, understand and pronounce the sounds of a second language. Each chapter includes a 'tutorial' section with practical exercises based on the University of Toronto Romance Phonetics Database (available online for free), and suggestions for further reading. The book also has a companion website, containing further exercises and audio examples"-- _cProvided by publisher.
520			_aDrawing on research from applied linguistics, linguistics, psychology and the speech sciences, this textbook focuses particularly on second language speech - how individuals perceive and produce the sounds of their second language. Each chapter includes illustrative case studies, review questions, and a tutorial section with practical exercises.
