ON THE IMPORTANCE OF TEACHING PHONETIC INTONATION SKILLS TO STUDENTS OF NON-LINGUISTIC UNIVERSITIES

Abstract

The article studies the influence of phonetic intonation skills on the successful mastery of certain types of speech activity, in particular, reading and listening. The main phonological causes of communicative failures associated with insufficient mastery of the orthoepic norm of the studied (English) language are studied, the most frequent pronouncing intonation errors are systematized and a system of exercises for correcting established errors is developed. The main part of the article contains an analysis of the results of experimental teaching phonetic intonation skills to students of a non-linguistic university. The connection of communicative errors with the incorrect choice of intonation model is theoretically substantiated. Based on the results of the auditory analysis, the influence of phonological competence on the creation of a positive socio-cultural image of the linguistic personality of the future specialist is proved. The proposed system of teaching intonation skills will be useful in non-linguistic groups of students studying a foreign language in conditions of limited academic time.
