| Jul 17, 2015 at 15:46 | comment | added | jlawler | You need to understand phonology before you can understand second-language phonology. Like you need ordinary calculus before you get to differential equations. Take a look at the English tense/lax vowel sets: sheep/ship, lace/less, row/raw, lewd/wood, for instance; speakers of Spanish (and many other languages) have trouble with words containing these vowels, both in hearing them and in pronouncing them. Because English has a dozen vowels (at least), while Spanish has only five. | |
