Phonetic Transcription of Disordered Speech: A Book of Readings introduces the main systems used to transcribe atypical speech, covering segmental and suprasegmental features as well as conversation. Linguist-phoneticians Nicole Müller, Joan Rahilly, and Martin J. Ball explain how these systems developed and look ahead to the role of automatic speech transcription.Aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students, and at researchers and clinicians in speech-language pathology, this collection will be greatly beneficial for readers who are familiar with basic phonetic transcription but are looking to apply it more widely to the many types of atypical speech seen in clinical work, including in natural conversation. Chapters show how to use impressionistic phonetic transcription to describe a wide range of speech disorders, integrating segmental and prosodic aspects in multilayered transcriptions. This book also introduces the transcription of conversations involving people with speech and language disorders, linking transcription practice to communicative competence and interaction. Seminal articles chart the development of clinical transcription, while new chapters update extIPA, VoQS, and add newer symbols and conventions, and discuss acoustic analysis, clinical databases, and emerging automatic transcription technologies.
