Intelligibility-Oriented Strategies for Teaching English Pronunciation
This paper explores the framework for establishing teaching priorities in intelligibility-based pronunciation instruction for English as a Foreign Language(EFL)learners.Pronunciation plays a vital role in communicative competence,but limited classroom time necessitates the strategic focus on key features that significantly affect intelligibility.This paper reviews key concepts such as intelligibility,comprehensibility,and accentedness,as well as research supporting intelligibility-based teaching.It introduces six guidelines that provide a structured approach to identifying pronunciation priorities:focusing on communication-related features,addressing errors that hinder comprehension,prioritizing important lexical items,emphasizing high functional load errors,targeting frequent errors,and focusing on learnable features.
