| Abstract: | This article introduces a few of the diverse languages and dialects of the Asian Pacific area and describes the specific phonetic features that exist in these selected languages. It also delineates the speech characteristics of the English spoken by those individuals whose English has been influenced by their local or native tongues. As speech-language pathologists become more involved in providing services to enhance the English communication skills of nonnative speakers, they will need to be cognizant of these speech characteristics. Finally, some clinical challenges in transcription and beyond transcription are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
