Realisation of r sound in the Speech of Czech Learners of English
Hodková, Barbora ; Červinková Poesová, Kristýna (advisor) ; Jančovičová, Ivana (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on the differences between realisations of English and Czech /r/ sounds and the possible negative transfer from the mother tongue on the Czech speaker's pronunciation of /r/ in English. To evaluate the aforementioned phenomenon, a method using a pronunciation test and a questionnaire were used. The test consisted of a reading part and a picture description, where the second part provided semi-spontaneous talk. The questionnaire was designed so that the questions about the individual pronunciation-affecting factors were answered. The final analysis investigated whether the level of English and the age at which the speakers started to learn English directly affects the degree of native-like pronunciation of /r/ in English.
