  2. OVERVIEW What is Phonetics and Phonology ? Phonetics vs. Phonology Branches of Phonetics Voiced and voiceless Place of articulation Manner of articulation

  3. PHONETICS •  Phonetics is about the physical production • and perception of sounds of speech •  It is the study of physical aspects of speech. • It studies all possible speech sounds •  Phonetics is all about studying the sounds • we make when we talk

  4. PHONOLOGY  Phonology deals with the system and pattern of speech sounds in a language.  It describes the way sounds function – within a given language or across languages.  Phonology is the study of how sounds are organized and used in natural languages.

  5. PHONOLOGY VS PHONETICS •  Analyzes the sound • pattern of a particular • language by • determining which • phonetic sounds are • significant and • explaining how these • sound are interpreted • by the native speaker •  Analyzes the • production of all human • speech sounds, • regardless of language.

  6. PHONETICS VS PHONOLOGY •  Phonology is the study of • how sounds are • organized and used in • natural languages. •  The phonological system • of a language includes an • inventory of sounds and • their features, and • pragmatic rules which • specify how sounds • interact with each other. •  Phonetics is the study • of human speech • sounds. •  Phonetics studies • which sounds are • present in a • language.

  7. PHONOLOGY VS PHONETICS •  Phonology studies how • these sounds combine • and how they change in • combination, as well as • which sound can contrast • to produce difference in • meaning •  Phonetics simply • describes the • articulatory and • acoustic properties of • speech sounds

  8. BRANCHES OF PHONETICS  Acoustic Phonetics This is the study of the sound waves made by the human vocal organs for communication and how the sounds are transmitted. The sound travels through from the speaker's mouth through the air to the hearer's ear, through the form of vibrations in the air. Acoustic phonetics also looks at how articulatory and auditory phonetics link to the acoustic properties.

  9.  Auditory Phonetics This is how we perceive and hear sounds and how the ear, brain and auditory nerve perceives the sounds. This branch deals with the physiological processes involved in the reception of speech  Articulatory Phonetics Articulatory phonetics is interested in the movement of various parts of the vocal tract during speech. The vocal tract is the passages above the larynx where air passes in the production of speech

  10. ARTICULATION Articulation  Voiceless: When the vocal folds are spread apart, the air from the lungs passes between them without obstruction. Sounds produced in this way are described as voiceless. Sounds such as S-S-S-S or F-F-F-F are voiceless.  Voiced: When the vocal folds are drawn together, the air from the lungs repeatedly pushes them apart as it passes through, creating a vibration effect. Sounds produced in this way are described as voiced. Sounds such as Z-Z-Z-Z or V-V-V-V.

  11. PLACE OF ARTICULATION  The point where a sound is produced is referred to as its place of articulation. Symbols are enclosed with square brackets [ ]

  12. BILABIALS  These are sounds formed using both upper and lower lips. The initial sounds in the words pat, bat, way and mat are all bilabials. They are represented by the symbols [p] [b] [m] and [w].

  13. Labiodentals • Labiodentals •  These are sounds formed • with the upper teeth and the • lower lip. The initial sounds • of the words fat and vat and • the final sounds of safe and • save are labiodentals. • Symbols are [f] [v]. The final • sound in the word cough, • and the initial sound in • photo, despite the spelling • differences, are both • pronounced as [f].

  14. Dentals Dentals  These sounds are formed with the tongue tip behind the upper front teeth. The initial sound of thin and the final sound of bath are both dentals. The symbol used for these sounds are [θ], [d], e.g the, there, then &thus
