Meeting at night
Task A - Transcription Reading
'Translate' the phonemic transcription of the poem
we provide below into its normal written form (to help you, we have included
gaps between the words, the lineation and the written punctuation marks
in our transcription, as you probably cannot accurately deduce these from
a standard phonemic transcription).
When you have completed your written version you
can access the correct translation by clicking on the button below but
remember you will learn more by trying the task yourself first.
