Sociophonetics: a student’s guide provides a practical ‘how-to’ manual that will give students a clear understanding of the technical and theoretical advances in acoustic phonetics, speech perception, and recording technology which is essential for sociolinguistic research.
Balancing theory, practical information and research protocol, this book:
  • Covers the key methodological, technical and procedural information needed to undertake sociophonetic research
  • Includes contributions from key academics and ground-breaking researchers
  • Incorporates exercises and projects in each chapter
  • Has a companion website that provides additional materials for students and professors, featuring exercises, links to on-line sources for specific tools and includes a large selection of audio and video clips.

Recenzii

'This book is a rich source of information on methodologies of sociophontic analysis, with information ranging from the basic of data collection to the most advanced computational techniques. The editors have done a remarkable job... This gives a new perspective to phonetics analysis for both fresh researchers and veterans in the field.' LINGUIST List
"This exquisite student's guide takes the beginner from the first steps in fieldwork and acoustics to the more advanced topics of sociophonetics. It is written by leading scholars known for their student-friendly stance at workshops at international conferences. I will be using it for years to come as a set text for advanced undergraduates and graduate students, and in fine-tuning my own work in this fast-growing research area." Rajend Mesthrie, University of Cape Town, South Africa.
 "The book is a rich source of information on methodologies of sociophonetic analysis, with information ranging from the basics of data collection to the most advanced computational techniques. The editors have done a remarkable job of putting together a variety of papers on phonetic, acoustic, and statistical analyses and linking them effectively to social factors such as speaker, age, purpose (i.e. normal speech or formal interviews), role, and context." -- Seetha Jayaraman, Dhofar University, LINGUIST List
