Phonetic Characteristics of English Loanwords

Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This article explores the phonetic features of English loanwords, focusing on how English adapts foreign words to fit its own phonological system. It highlights key phonetic modifications such as vowel changes, consonantal adaptations, stress shifts, and syllabic adjustments, using examples from languages like French, German, Spanish, and Japanese. The article explains how English speakers modify foreign sounds, such as nasal vowels, trilled consonants, and unfamiliar syllable structures, to make the words more pronounceable within the English framework.
