The proceedings of the IX International Round Table “Current Trends in Phonetic Studies”, held at Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute on 24 April 2026, are now available.
The contributions address the sound structure of language and speech; cognitive, cultural, pragmatic and energetic approaches to the phonetic study of discourse; phonosemantic and phonostylistic features of texts across genres; the effects of emotional state on speech prosody; speaker identification through phonetic characteristics; constancy and variation in sociophonetic parameters; paralinguistic features of emotional speech; contrastive studies of Ukrainian and foreign-language phonetic systems; and methods of teaching foreign-language phonetics.
The collection will be of interest to researchers, lecturers and postgraduate students.
