Abstract
The author reports on experiments aiming to instrumentally
capture the deviations on the segmental and prosodic level
observed with L2 learners. An on-going project at Beuth
University is dedicated to the development of a computer-assisted
pronunciation training system for German learners of Mandarin.
Another recent study looked at Chinese and Russian learners of
German.
