Course objectives
After completing this seminar the students will be able to analyze German written and spoken text from the phonetic point of view. The students are supposed to master German pronunciation, as well as the methodology of avoiding the typical pronunciation mistakes of Czech native speakers. They master phonetic transcription of a German text.
Learning outcomes
After the course completion students will be able to - characterize differences in the German and Czech articulation in the area of suprasegmental features and assimilation - apply principles of the standard German articulation in their own pronunciation as well as the methodology of removing typical pronunciation mistakes of Czech native speakers in teaching - choose appropriate supplementary texts for teaching and practising the correct German pronunciation - they will become certain in the phonetic transcription - they will make progress in working with their own errors. During the semester, students will continuously work on their own phonetic vocabulary and submit a seminar work in which they will analyse a text from the phonetic point of view.
