This is an introductory course on analytical and practical study of contemporary Portuguese pronunciation (phonetics and phonology). The overall objective of this course is to understand the phonetic features of Portuguese sounds in comparison to English and other languages, and how these sounds operate (phonological processes) when they form syllables, words, sentences and discourse.
