Dr Sarah Cooper
Lecturer
Research
My primary research interests are in Welsh phonetics, bilingualism and language technologies for lesser resourced languages. In particular, I am working on how adults learn the sounds of Welsh when they are learning Welsh.
I work closely with the Language Technologies Unit in Canolfan Bedwyr, Bangor University. Follow the link to read about and download the Paldaruo Speech Corpus of Welsh. I am the Course Lead for the MSc Language Technologies.
Teaching and Supervision
I teach a range of modules on phonetics and bilingualism. The subjects I teach include introductory and intermediate phonetics, aspects of bilingualism, and the phonetics and phonology of second language acquisition (for further details, please consult the current timetable).
