ABSTRACT

Oral English teaching has become an indispensable part of English education in China. The contradiction between traditional teaching methods and the needs of oral English teaching has become increasingly prominent. The development of corpus technology will help solve such contradictions. The purpose of this paper is to study the design of spoken English pronunciation learning system based on corpus. This paper introduces the main technologies designed by this system, including corpus technology, system development technology Visual Studio 2008 and C# language, and introduces the environment used in the system implementation process. This paper proposes an intelligent oral English pronunciation learning teaching solution for both teachers and students. It combines speech recognition, image retrieval, oral evaluation and other functions with oral English teaching, and uses the system to promote the solution of traditional teaching methods and modern oral English conflict between teaching needs. According to the application of corpus in English teaching, the system is designed, and the participants are organized to conduct oral language evaluation experiments. The reasonable rate of model scoring can reach 98%.
