After decades of improving language learning methods, English
as a Foreign Language (hereafter EFL) still makes Spanish and
Japanese learners struggle with the correct pronunciation. Each
country focused on its own lack of phonemes in relation to the target
language and, despite years, of research the problem is as present as
ever.
This article approaches this border-crossing problem by means
of the moderate version of the contrastive analysis hypothesis
(henceforth CAH) and compares and analyses the phonetic problems
of both languages against the target language, English.
By expanding the focus, the resulting data could serve as a
starting point for further studies that down the way could facilitate
EFL learning all around the world. [-]
