For this unit it is so important to notice about the
sounds which give more emphasis to pronunciation according to the phonemic
chart of each letter. In this case consonant and vowel sounds of English
language. That´s why this unit is more focused on the spoken use of English
than written use of the foreign language.
For that reason, we were able to learn many about
phonology because this topic is related about distinguishing the sounds of the english alphabet that can be produced by the mouth. On the other hand, letters can be added to words
and change their parts of speech and the pronunciation, too. Besides, another thing that we understood was that
the smallest unit of a sound is called phoneme and how a word can be pronounced
appropriately. Additionally, we could notice the pronunciation of each letter
according to the phonemic chart which can vary the way of speaking. For that reason, there are diphthongs, vowels, consonants, etc. These are employed
for the speaking part of the language. In addition, in the phonemic chart there
are voiced sounds and unvoiced sounds that are pronounced and mispronounced
because of the lack of practicing because it topic is so complex to pay attention. However, voiced and unvoiced sounds are the most important part in phonology.
It is clear that, we as teachers have got to find solutions in teaching of English language in which we will have got to model some of the most common words used in the class and
make our students to listen the intonation and the stress not just for words. It is
also referred to sentences and where it can be placed the main stress and
secondary stress. That´s why, we will have to use activities and strategies to understand clearly unvoiced and voiced sounds that are going to be applied into the class to
give more clarification to the students.
