| Inhalt | Sociophonetics is a field with a growing research agenda and diverse directions. It focuses on the relationship between phonetic/phonological form and social and interactional factors. Beside the variationist interest in speech production, recent socio-phonetic studies have also been concerned with the effects of variation on speech perception, phonological categorization, acquisition, speaker and self-identification, and speech accommodation. This research seminar will deal with different dimensions of sociophonetic variation, perceptual dialectology, accent recognition, and speaker judgments about the indexical properties of variation in the speech signal. In the practical research part you will be introduced to experimental techniques and will conduct a small research project on a topic of your choice from the areas of production, perception or evaluation. |
| Lernziele | Overview over theoretical, methodological, and practical aspects of sociophonetics. Insight into the complex relation between social factors and language behaviour in production, perception, and attitudinal evaluation. Awareness of the social relevance of linguistic variation in everyday life. |
