Customer Reviews:
At last we got it!
By Alberto M. Mioni - April 19, 2000This is a much needed and superb book. It is a must for all the specialists and beginners in phonetic transcription. At last, we have a general and compact presentation of the current version of IPA, also throwing new light on the rationale of some choices that were not clear or explicit enough in the papers appeared in the Journal of the IPA. A new symbol (for the retroflex implosive of Sindhi) is also added, together with some proposals for a wider usage of little apex letters. I would have appreciated still more details on the (clumsy and much debatable) solutions proposed by present IPA for tonal notations: I feel definitely more at ease on Yuanren Chao's side! The choice of sample languages is quite balanced as for families and geographical distribution. In my opinion, however, the languages should also have been chosen also because of their sociolinguistic relevance. Might we hope, e.g., for something on Spanish and Italian in the next edition?
What you'd expect
By Julie Peters Akey "kabuka1" - April 22, 2003This book is exactly what one would expect it to be: a thorough explanation of the International Phonetic Alphabet. It has a beginning section on the description of consonant and vowel sounds and thier places of articulation. The best part about the book is it analyzes the phonetic alphabet of most of the world's languages including many lesser used ones such as Bulgarian, Catalan, and Igbo, for example. The back has a description of each of the symbols so one can figure out what sound an unfamiliar symbol represents. This is a good reference book for all linguistics.
"Introduction to Phonetics"
By Grady O'Rourke "Grady O'Rourke" - May 6, 2007I have taken up linguistics as a hobby and I am finding the IPA Handbook a very useful guide to the phonetic alphabet and phonetic transcription. The best part is a phonetic guide to 28 languages such as Cantonese, American English and Arabic. The sound examples can be downloaded and the IPA charts are included in a form that allows easy duplication and enlargement. There is a succinct introduction to phonetics and phonology. All in all this would probably be a handy reference for people on any level.
