Speaking English like truly native speakers is the dream of the English
learners. However, there are many pronunciation problems the English
learners faced such as consonants, vowels, stress.etc. Vietnamese learning
English also make the same mistakes because of some differences and
similarities in pronouncing consonants between English and Vietnamese.
During English learning at HPU, I myself have encountered great difficulties
in learning English pronunciation especially consonants pronunciation. If we
can understand and practice consonants pronunciation clearly, judiciously, the
English pronunciation problems will be overcome and improved.
The above reasons have inspired me to carry out the study with the title ―A
contrastive analysis of consonants in English and Vietnamese‖.
