Recent dissertations on L2 pronunciation

This editorial summarizes 40 recent dissertations (2018–2023) on L2 pronunciation topics. Although it was nearly impossible to pigeonhole dissertations into single sub-categories (e.g., pronunciation training studies often also address questions of intelligibility), we have organized them into six main topic areas: Teachers and Learners; Special Contexts; Prosody and Fluency; Technology; Pronunciation Training; and Intelligibility, Comprehensibility and Accentedness. The wide range of dissertations from around the world indicates a bright future for the field.
