Pronunciation Practice: The 44 sounds of English
In an attempt to take some of the pain out of learning the kind of clear English pronunciation that prevents communication problems, I have here devised a set of memorable sentences as practice drills. The full range of English sounds is gone through systematically and spoon-fed in a form overseas students will want to repeat to themselves and then to the world. They might think it's just a form of entertainment, but before they know it they'll be speaking like a native!

Saving the Audio Files to Your PC
- Start by creating a new folder
with a simple name like "Pronunciation" or "Drills".
- Right-click any MP3 you wish to
keep, select "Save target as..." or "Save link as..."
from the drop-down menu and direct the download to your designated folder.
- Once you're done, go back to
your new folder to confirm the downloaded files are all there.
- Go up one level and right-click
the folder itself.
- Select the "Play with
Windows Media Player" option from the drop-down menu, just as you
might do with a music album. (If this option is missing, you have skipped
step 3 and the PC hasn't detected any MP3s!)
- With the Windows Music Player
open in full-screen format, left-click the "Now Playing" tab
followed by the small arrow underneath it to access a new drop-down
menu.
- Under
"Visualizations" select "Album Art" to display the
phonetic symbol of each sound being practised.
- On your keyboard you can press
Ctrl+Shift+C to activate (or deactivate) the hidden captions feature. When
selected, the full text of each pronunciation drill will display during
playback like a movie subtitle.
Inglese: i 30 errori più comuni degli italiani
“Dopo quasi un decennio all’estero (ebbene sì questo
settembre segnerà i 9 anni della mia permanenza all’estero) posso con sicurezza
elencare i dieci più comuni errori che gli italiani fanno quando tentano di
parlare l’inglese. “ Esordisce così il blogger Fabristol presentando le liste,
cresciute nel tempo, dei più frequenti errori commessi dagli italiani parlando in
inglese. Una carrellata utile e
godibilissima dei nostri difetti linguistici. Buon divertimento.
Parts of a Tree
Structure
of a tree
The tree is
composed of an underground part, the roots, and two aboveground parts, the
trunk and the crown.
bole
Part of the
tree trunk extending between the stump and the first lower limbs; it has no
offshoots.
limb
Offshoot
growing directly out of a tree trunk, subsequently dividing into branches and
twigs.
twig
The most
slender offshoot of a tree branch.
crown
Part of the
tree above the trunk, including the branches and the foliage.
radicle
The most
slender offshoot of a tree root.
shallow
root
Root, often
having many offshoots, growing somewhat horizontally into the rich moist
topsoil.
taproot
First root
growing out of the seed that grows vertically into the soil; it usually has few
offshoots, its main function being to anchor the tree in the ground.
branch
Offshoot of
one of the tree’s limbs.
top
Apex of the
tree’s crown.
branches
The
aggregate of larger and smaller branches that provide support for the tree’s
leaves, flowers and fruit.
foliage
The
aggregate of the leaves on a tree; it is especially adapted to capture light
and perform photosynthesis.
root-hair
zone
Part of the
radicle covered in small absorbent hairs that ensure the tree is supplied with
mineral salts and water.
Cross
section of a trunk
Moving from
the center to the periphery there are six parts: the pith, the heartwood, the
sapwood, the cambium, the phloem and the bark.
heartwood
Hard
dark-colored wood layer made of dead sapwood; it encircles the pith and
supports the trunk and branches.
pith
Central
part of the trunk, composed of soft tissue that contains nutrients essential
for sapling growth.
bark
Tree’s
external protective layer; its texture and color vary depending on the species.
phloem
Tissue
located immediately below the bark, whose main function is to transport sap
transformed by photosynthesis from the leaves throughout the rest of the tree.
cambium
Growth
tissue that simultaneously produces the external phloem and the internal
sapwood, thereby enabling the tree to increase in diameter.
sapwood
Relatively
new layer of wood that is generally pale in color; it transports raw sap,
composed of water and nutrient minerals, from the roots to the leaves.
annual ring
Each of the
concentric circles representing the layer of wood produced in one year; the age
of the tree can be determined by the number of rings.
wood ray
Conduit
connecting the pith to the core and circulating nutrients horizontally within
the trunk.
