It adopts a unique perspective, viewing language as a cornerstone for describing and discussing other social and regional variants within that speaking register. The book caters to speakers of Spanish interested in learning Portuguese and speakers of Portuguese who want to learn Spanish, as well as language specialists interested in bilingualism, heritage languages, and the teaching of typologically similar languages. It employs innovative approaches, such as the reinterpretation of traditional concepts in Phonetics and the use of speech prosodies and speech melodies, to provide a user-friendly strategy for describing speech prosody in languages and speech melody in music through musical notation.
