Indispensable
Listening to Eric and Phil talk about Phonetics is like going back to graduate school in the best possible way. Mssrs. Armstrong and Thompson manage to walk the very fine line between detail and accesability. Their in-depth exploration of the various sounds, phonetic markers, and language history is invaluable to my personal studies and to my classroom teaching. As Phil mentions in episode 5, there is a tendency for Speech teachers to use the IPA as some kind of stentorian authority; or, in other words, as a way of saying "this is the right and only way to make this sound". Glossonomia's thoughtful and intelligent discussion of sound action inspires a meaningful exploration on the many ways a sound can be produced, allowing for greater freedom in choosing sound actions. I look forward to this every week, as do many of my students.
