The
Phonology of English as an International Language This book advocates a new
approach to pronunciation teaching, in which the goal is mutual
intelligibility among non-native speakers, rather than imitating
native speakers. It will be of interest to all teachers of
English as an International Language, especially Business
English. It proposes a basic core of phonologic teaching,
with controversial suggestions for what should be included.
