  1. PhoneticsChapter 1 Perry C. Hanavan, Au.D.

  2. Branches of Phonetics • Experimental • Research methods and laboratory techniques • Articulatory (physiological) • Speech-sound production • Acoustic • Waveform properties of speech sounds • Perceptual • Discrimination and intelligibility of speech sounds • Applied • Practical application of phonetic knowledge

  3. Applied Branches of Phonetics 1. Normative phonetics: Setting good speech standards 2. Clinical phonetics: Remediation of speech disorders 3. Linguistic phonetics (phonology): Analysis of the sounds of language a. Historical (diachronic) phonetics: The development of the speech sounds of a language over time b. Descriptive (synchronic) phonetics: The study of the speech sounds of a language at one point in time c. Comparative (contrastive) phonetics: Comparison of the speech sound' of two or more languages d. Dialectology (linguistic geography): The study of the language variations causing speech-sound differences e. Pragmatic phonetics: The study of purposeful changes in speech, dependent on the situation f. Transcriptional phonetics: Development and application of phonetic alphabets

  4. Question What is a “phone”? • Sound variant • A particular sound • Sound produced by the vocal tract • Any sound

  5. Sound Terminology • Phonetics • Study of speech sounds • Phonetician • Person who studies speech sounds • Phone • Any sound that can be produced by the vocal tract • Phoneme • Phone in a language • Allophone • Phoneme variant

  6. Letter Terminology • Graph • Letter that could be used in alphabet • Grapheme • Alphabet letter in a language • Allograph • Variant grapheme • Graphemics • Study of letters in writing and spelling • Orthography • Study of the spelling and writing system of a language

  7. Speech is Dynamic • Assimilation • Backward assimilation • Ink • Congress • Forward assimilation • Cooked/bagged • Cubs/cups • Reciprocal assimilation • Rental/planter
