"In the field of second language (L2) acquisition, the number of studies focusing on L2 pronunciation instruction and perceptual/production training has increased as new classroom methodologies have been proposed and new goals for L2 pronunciation have been set. This book brings together different approaches to L2 pronunciation research in the classroom or in the language laboratory. 13 chapters, written by well-known researchers focusing on a variety of first and target languages, are divided into four parts: Pronunciation development and intelligibility: implications for teaching and training studies; L2 pronunciation teaching; L2 pronunciation training: implications for the classroom; and Pronunciation in the laboratory: High Variability Phonetic Training. Intended for researchers in the fields of second language acquisition, phonetics, phonology, psycholinguistics, speech therapies, speech technology, as well as second language teaching, this book not only summarizes the current research questions on L2 pronunciation teaching and training, but also predicts future scenarios for both researchers and practitioners in the field." (Book Cover) "Dans le domaine de l’acquisition de la langue seconde (L2), le nombre d’études axées sur l’enseignement de la prononciation L2 et la formation perceptive / production a augmenté à mesure que de nouvelles méthodologies de classe ont été proposées et que de nouveaux objectifs pour la prononciation L2 ont été fixés. Ce livre rassemble différentes approches de la recherche en prononciation L2 en classe ou au laboratoire de langue. 13 chapitres, rédigés par des chercheurs renommés et axés sur une variété de langues premières et cibles, sont divisés en quatre parties: développement de la prononciation et intelligibilité : implications pour les études d’enseignement et de formation; enseignement de la prononciation L2; Formation en prononciation L2 : implications pour la classe; et Prononciation en laboratoire : Formation phonétique à haute variabilité. Destiné aux chercheurs dans les domaines de l’acquisition de la langue seconde, de la phonétique, de la phonologie, de la psycholinguistique, de l’orthophonie, de la technologie de la parole, ainsi que de l’enseignement de la langue seconde, Ce livre résume non seulement les questions de recherche actuelles sur l’enseignement et la formation en prononciation L2, mais prédit également des scénarios futurs pour les chercheurs et les praticiens du domaine."

Intended for researchers in the fields of second language acquisition, phonetics, phonology, psycholinguistics, speech therapies, speech technology, as well as second language teaching.
