What kinds of factors cause people to have a ‘foreign accent’ when they speak a second language? Mention at least one factor that has to do with phonetics and at least one that has to do with phonology. Give at least one specific example of a phonetic or phonological characteristic of a person’s speech that makes their speech seem foreign.  Do you think that teaching people phonetics and phonology as part of second language instruction might be helpful? Why (not)?

Be sure to represent sounds using the IPA. (If you want to refer to a non-English sound, you can describe it as best you can and you could consult the full IPA. We haven’t covered non-English sounds, so it’s fine it you guess the symbol or email us to ask.)

You can access IPA symbols on your computer, but how it’s done depends on what system you’re using. If you don’t know how it works on your computer, you can use this link: Type IPA phonetic symbols – online keyboard
