Phonetics is often found in the practical exam of different communities and it tends to be worth 1 point out of 10.
We can be asked to transcribe a few words or a paragraph! So, let's review.
How do you practise transcription? Do you have a routine?
In my community, we have to transcribe a paragraph. I tend to transcribe one paragraph a week at least, and I increase the number of paragraphs as time goes by. From April onwards, I transcribe every day.
1) I set a timer to do the transcription.
2) I do the transcription
3) I check mistakes using a different colour.
4) I take 2 mistakes as objectives for my following practice which I have a look
before practising the following time.
Additional tips!
I also create study cards with spellings phonemes correspondence.
I like following Instagram accounts which share messages written in Phonetic transcription (as I am doing now these days).
Share with us how do you practise!
