Some practice with phonetics

If you want to practise your own phonetic transcription, there's a series of exercises in my Toolbox which I created for my academic students. You'll find them via this page:

and then click on the Phonetics link.

There are some downloadable worksheets, a series of sound files, and some answers. One of the exercises has some of Michael Rosen's modern tongue-twisters, like this one:

A car wash washes cars. I wish I was washed like a car wash washes cars.
