The Functional Phonetics Workbook, now in its fourth edition, emphasizes the basics of learning the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) in a simplified, useful manner so students can be successful and confident at IPA transcription. It meets the need for undergraduate students majoring in communication sciences and disorders who require one semester of training in phonetics.

The workbook includes clear diagrams illustrating how sounds are produced and transcription exercises to provide ample opportunities to develop command of the IPA. Ancillaries include audio files and phoneme study cards to help students strengthen their phonemic awareness skills and learn the symbol/sound associations of the IPA. This new edition includes updated examples, definitions, and activities throughout the text.
