This manual of Experimental Acoustic Phonetics is conceived for Undergraduate and Graduate classes on areas such as Acoustic Phonetics, Phonology, Communications Engineering, Music, Acoustic Physics, Speech Theraphy, among others. Starting with a theoretical and methodological presentation of Acoustic Phonetics Theory and Techniques in five chapters, including a chapter on experimental methods, the book follows with detailed acoustic analysis of all classes of sounds using audio files from both European and Brazilian Portuguese as data. All analyses are explained step by step using Praat. The audiofiles are available on the book web site and can be downloaded. All techniques can be applied to any language, of course. Proposed exercices at the end of each chapter allow the teacher o evaluate the student progress.
