This paper reviews literature of experts on the field who highlight the relevance of teaching pronunciation. In order to provide the readers with a theoretical basis the paper first presents a review of recent discussions on the necessity to teach pronunciation. Then it offers a description of the features of pronunciation, influential factors, problems such as merging and substitution caused by the differences between the First and Second Language phonological system, and teaching methodologies. Out of this context, we have favored one of the approaches which shed light on the development of pronunciation awareness. Finally some activities which aim to help learners pronounce unknown sounds in a clear and intelligible way are proposed. 2018 artículo científico 2477-9024 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=737880633004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=7378 Innova research journal application/pdf Universidad Internacional del Ecuador Innova research journal (Ecuador) Num.4 Vol.3 |
