Homework:  Broad Transcription of English

Linguistics 103
UCLA

Click here to obtain the text of the problem in PDF format (if you didn't pick it up in class)

Click here to obtain the sound files all in one zipped bundle

Please don't try this if you're at all uneasy about computers--just go on to the next section.

The idea is to save you a little time downloading.  You download all the files at once as a zipped file, unzip them into a new folder, then access them by clicking on the individual files.

The files have fairly obvious file names.  For example, 3_2.wav is the second word in the third part of the problem.  Files with p in them are practice files.  These file names will make sense if you have the printed problem set in front of you.

The Individual Sound Files

Just click on them.  If they don't play, read the directions on the problem set.
