-
Sound awareness, sound interpretation (discrimination)
Perceptual Phonetics
-
Application, the study of speech disorders
Clinical Phonetics
-
A category of sounds
Phoneme
-
Minimal meaningful unit of sound
Morpheme
-
A morpheme that has meaning on its own
Free Morpheme
-
A morpheme that is connected to something else
Bound Morpheme
-
Study of sound differences in a language
Phonemics
-
Variation within a phonemic class
Allophone
-
Letters and letter combos that represent the same sound
Allographs
-
Enclosed in virgules / / also known as phonemic transciption
Broad Phonetic Transcription
-
Sounds that individuals actually produce; Consists of allophone and phones and enclosed in brackets [ ]
Narrow Phonetic Transcription
-
Indicate additional modifications of the sound
Diacritic Markings
-
Oral, nasal, and pharyngeal
Cavities
-
Tongue, lips, velum, and mandible
Moveable Articulators
-
Hard palate, teeth, and alveolar ridge
Immoveable Articulators
-
Breathing; Air necessary for speech
Respiration
-
Some narrowing or closing of the vocal tract
Consonants
-
Consonants produced side by side with no vowel between
Consonant Clusters
-
Prevocalic, postvocalic, intervocalic, initial, medial, final, releasing, and arresting
Positional Terminology
-
The ability to define the number of syllables in a word
Syllabication
-
-
Vowels of changing resonance and have an onglide or offglide
Diphthong
-
(L,M,N) Text includes /r/ but its not usually used
Syllabics
-
Open vocal folds, specific position of lips, tongue, and pharynx, lips, lengthened, shorten, vocal tract, tongue position: enlarges or clears the side of the vocal tract, maybe described as tense: longer duration, more muscle tension or lax: shorten duration, appear only in closed syllables, presence or absence of lip rounding and stress
Vowel Production Characteristics
-
Phonemic; lengthening the vowel into diphthong changes the meaning (phonemic difference)
Contrastive
-
Nonphonemic; lengthening the vowel into a diphthong doesn't change the meaning (phonetic difference)
Noncontrastive
-
Classified according to manner, place, and voice
Consonant Articulation
-
Same manner and place but different in voice
Cognant Pairs
-
Bilabial, labiodental, lingua dental, lingua alveolar, lingua palatal, lingua velar, and glottal
Places of articulation
-
Stop, fricatives, affricates, nasals, liquids, glides,
Manners of articulation
-
Oral cavity is sealed at some point
Burst of noise
Short duration
Occur in cognate pairs
p,b,t,d,k,g
Obstruent
Stops
-
Velopharyx closed
High air pressure
Narrow constriction
Fricatives
-
Subclass of fricatives- Obstruents
Sibilants
-
Stop followed by a fricative
Obstructed airway followed by a quick release- velo port closed
Obstruent
Affricates
-
Velum is lowered and nasal resonance takes place
Nasal radiation
Velopharynx closed and the vocal tract is lengthened
sonorant
Nasal
-
Vocal tract is open (semi vowel) a graduation: Gliding transition
May be called approximates or sonorants
Glides
-
Two classes: rhotic and lateral
Semi vowel
Rhotic: /r/ allophones: bunched and retroflex
Lateral /l/ is the only sound in english requiring lateral airflow
Approximants, sonorants
Liquids
-
Sound inventory of a language
Allowable sound combinations
Acceptable allophonic variations
