The aim of the project is to conduct research in the field of acquisition of second language phonology. The research questions are: Is it possible to predict the differences in pronunciation of Czech by Vietnamese speakers, by comparing the phonological plans of both languages? Is it possible to compile a typology of these differences? What is the impact of these differences in the perception of a native Czech speaker? The main methods are analysis using a spectrogram, and a perception test.
