Abstract

This descriptive-comparative research focuses on acoustic aspects in the field of phonological studies on sound production by L2 English learners in pronouncing words that contain diphthongs and have two syllables. The PRAAT application is used as an approach to describe and compare intensity patterns from digital voice recordings and L2 English learners. This research shows that of the eight diphthong words that were uttered, only two sound recordings from L2 whose intensity patterns were close to digital sound recordings. This research shows that PRAAT can be used as an approach to measure fluency, where further research can be directed to other aspects such as formant and pitch, as well as the use of L1 English sounds as a benchmark.
