 Why is phonology so important for someone who wants to become a teacher of English? And what are the special aspects about English phonology German students have to understand before they start teaching English? These questions constitute the focus of this unit. In the virtual session we will start with a famous quotation that relates phonetics to phonology before we then look at the two central levels of phonology. Segmental phonology that is what you say and suprasegmental phonology that is how you say something. Use the question sheet as default guide if you do not know where to go. The worksheet is a dynamic multiple choice task about basic concepts in phonology. It should be quite easy after the virtual session. And the practical confronts you with sound units from English and German and wants you to find out the relevance of the sounds in these languages. Difficult but with the virtual session content in your mind manageable.
