1.1 The following words can post challenges with pronunciation. Based on your knowledge of
English as an alphabetic language, write the phonemic transcription of each word.

Question 2
2.1 Languages are known for borrowing words from one another.
i) In your own words, explain what you understand by the process of borrowing words from one
language to another.
The process of borrowing words from one language to another involves taking words from one
language and incorporating them into another language. This typically occurs when a concept or
object doesn't have an existing word in the borrowing language, so a word from another language is
used instead. This can happen for various reasons, such as cultural exchange, trade, or historical
conquest. When a word is borrowed, it is often adapted to fit the phonological and grammatical
rules of the borrowing language. Over time, borrowed words can become fully integrated and widely
used in the borrowing language.
ii) Provide three words which illustrate the effect of borrowing on pronunciation. For example, in
the word ‘buffet’ which has been borrowed from French, the final ‘t’ is silent in French, yet most
people tend to pronounce the ‘t’ in English. (3 marks)
1. Lingerie (borrowed from French) - in English, the pronunciation emphasizes the ‘n’ sound,
whereas in French, the emphasis is on the final ‘ie’ sound.
2. Croissant (borrowed from French) - in English, the emphasis is typically placed on the first syllable
"cruh-SAHNT," whereas in French, the emphasis is on the final syllable "kwah-SAHN."
3. Fiesta (borrowed from Spanish) - the pronunciation in English often uses a long 'e' sound for the
first vowel, whereas in Spanish, the 'ie' diphthong is pronounced as a single vowel sound.
