BBC learning English : web site for practice

Dear students
The following BBC web site will help you learn more about English ponunciation.


http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/grammar/pron/


There is a system of symbols for writing the sounds of English. There is a guide to these symbols and also videos to show how to pronounce each of the sounds.

There are also activities to practise identifiying the difference between certain sounds which may sound similar.


Furthermore, you will find information about different elements of English pronunciation together with interactive and downloadable exercises to help you build your understanding of these areas.

Have fun.
