Teaching Pronunciation: Is Explicit Phonetics Instruction Beneficial For Fl Learners?, Elizabeth M. Kissling Oct 2013

Teaching Pronunciation: Is Explicit Phonetics Instruction Beneficial For Fl Learners?, Elizabeth M. Kissling

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

Pronunciation instruction has been shown to improve learners’ L2 accent in some, though certainly not all, cases. A core component of traditional pronunciation instruction is explicit lessons in L2 phonetics. Studies suggest that Spanish FL learners improve their pronunciation after receiving instruction, but the effect of phonetics instruction has not been directly compared with other pedagogical alternatives. This study reports on the pronunciation gains that first, second, and third year learners (n = 95) made after receiving either explicit instruction in Spanish phonetics or a more implicit treatment with similar input, practice, and feedback. The target phones included a …

Understanding Mood Selection For Nominal Clauses Headed By El Hecho De Que In Spanish, George P. Myers, Dr. Jeffrey S. Turley Sep 2013

Understanding Mood Selection For Nominal Clauses Headed By El Hecho De Que In Spanish, George P. Myers, Dr. Jeffrey S. Turley

Journal of Undergraduate Research

In A Dictionary of Linguistics and Phonetics, David Crystal semantically defines the mood of a verb as the “attitudes on the part of a speaker towards the factual content of the utterance, e.g. uncertainty, definiteness, vagueness, possibility.”1 While Crystal’s definition may give the mood of a verb an orderly appearance, more than one grammarian has appropriately compared understanding the factors leading up to mood selection to untangling a large ball of knotted string. With considerable credibility, most grammarians claim to have organized much of the tangle; however, few can explain how to separate the subjunctive mood from the indicative …

Relating Linguistic Competence To Culture : How Bilingual Spanish-English Social Workers Who Speak English As A First Language Experience And Conceptualize Culture In Their Practice With Spanish Speaking Clients, Audra T. Winn Sep 2013

Relating Linguistic Competence To Culture : How Bilingual Spanish-English Social Workers Who Speak English As A First Language Experience And Conceptualize Culture In Their Practice With Spanish Speaking Clients, Audra T. Winn

Theses, Dissertations, and Projects

Cultural experiences and conceptualizations of native English bilingual social workers have not been dominant in the ongoing discussion of bilingualism and cultural competence in social work practice, education, and literature. This exploratory study examined practice based cultural experiences of bilingual Spanish-English social workers native to English who work with Spanish speaking clients. Specifically, the focus of the study was centered on how these social workers conceptualize their experiences through a cultural lens in their Spanish language work. Through eleven qualitative interviews with Master's level social workers who use their non-native Spanish in social work practice, this study looked at how …
