  • Learn to pronounce German words correctly with the IPA in 45 min! I’m not talking about India Pale Ale, but about the International Phonetic Alphabet. This alphabet is used in most dictionaries and linguistic books and shows you how to pronounce words and sentences correctly. Knowledge of the IPA can make you aware of small differences in phonetics and can get you get rid of your accent. Knowing the right pronunciation can do wonders for your speaking and listening skills.
    In this workshop I will only focus on the sounds used in the German language. Who says German is a hard language?
    Ellen de Visser is from the Netherlands but has studied German and French linguistics and literature in Berlin, Bristol and Prague and is a freelance translator working with the languages Dutch, German and English. She has been fascinated by Germanic languages since her studies and enjoys giving talks and workshops at conferences.

    34:56 as a Ukrainian I've started learning English in my 5th grade. Our teacher taught us IPA right after introducing the alphabet and both were used in parallel for quite a while. I just didn't know back then that the "transcription" we were learning is universal and that it's a subset of IPA.
    Nice talk and a sense of humour, thanks for sharing!

    Thank you so much, you did a great job Ellen. I think you were a bit nervous, but you nailed it 🙂
    I'm studying German on my own and every bit of information is super helpful. Take care!

    Although Standard German is clearly based on the East Middle German dialects, it is not identical with any one of them; it has accepted and standardized many forms from other areas, notably the Upper German sound pf (Pfund, Apfel) and also large numbers of individual words in the forms of other dialect areas. Because it is the only type of German taught in schools, its spoken form is based to a large extent on its written form; and the spoken form that carries the greatest prestige (that of stage, screen, radio, and so on) uses a largely Low German pronunciation of this written form. As a result, the spoken form of modern Standard German has often been aptly described as “High German with Low German sounds.”

      Can you compare the Dutch phonetic and German. I wonder wich makes English with Dutch and German background so interesting and different.
