The Dutch phonology part can be used by both researchers and teachers. Both groups, however, might be confused by certain transcription conventions, because underlying principles are not explained. Language variation and social connotations also deserve more attention. In general, explanations might be added, so that pronunciation theory and actual usage become less conflated. %U https://www.aup-online.com/content/journals/10.5117/NEDTAA2018.2.003.SMAK
