Abstract

Pronunciation assessment is a crucial component of language teaching and learning. Nonetheless, there seems to be a lack of consensus on the best methods and criteria for evaluating learners’ pronunciation. This review provides an overview of the traditional and modern modes of pronunciation assessment, highlighting their strengths and limitations and their approaches to assessing pronunciation. Traditional modes solely rely on human raters’ judgments and linguistic knowledge and may be encroached upon on various grounds. Modern modes often use artificial intelligence, automatic speech recognition, and complicated programs to measure and score pronunciation features. The review concludes with some implications and future directions for modern modes of pronunciation assessment.

发音评估:传统与现代模式
语音评价是语言教学的重要组成部分。然而,对于评估学习者发音的最佳方法和标准似乎缺乏共识。本文综述了传统的和现代的语音评估模式,突出了它们的优势和局限性以及它们的语音评估方法。传统模式完全依赖于人类的判断和语言知识,并可能受到各种理由的侵犯。现代模式通常使用人工智能、自动语音识别和复杂的程序来测量和评分发音特征。最后,对现代语音评价模式的发展提出了建议和展望。
