Cards (20)

  • Phonology
    Deals with how speech sounds are organized into systems for each individual language
  • Phonetics
    Deals with speech sounds themselves, how they are made (articulatory phonetics), how they are perceived (auditory phonetics), and the physics involved (acoustic phonetics)
  • Phonetics and phonology are related fields
  • Tlectualization
    • Tlaxcala /tlɑːsˈkɑːlə/
    • Tlapanec /ˈtlæpənɛk/
    • Tlingit /ˈklɪŋkɪt/
  • Phonology
    The abstract system organizing the surface sounds and gestures
  • Phonetics
    The surface manifestation of spoken language
  • Grammar
    Rules of a language governing the sounds, words, sentences, and other elements, as well as their combination and interpretation
  • Generative grammar
    Used to describe linguistic theories or models which are based on the idea that a single set of rules can explain how all the possible sentences of a language are formed
  • Competence
    The idealized unconscious knowledge a speaker has of the organization of his or her language
  • Performance
    The actual use of language
  • Bottom-up approach to linguistic analysis

  • Major aspects of speech production
    • Airstream mechanism
    • Vocal cords
    • Velum
    • Oral tract
    • Manner of articulation
    • Place of Articulation
  • Airstream mechanism
    Where the air used in speech starts from, and which direction it is travelling to
  • Vocal cords
    Whether or not the vocal cords are vibrating, which determines voicing
  • Velum
    Whether it is raised or lowered, which determines whether a sound is oral or nasal
  • Place and manner of articulation
    The horizontal and vertical positions of the tongue and lips
  • Types of airstream mechanism
    • Pulmonic egressive
    • Pulmonic ingressive
    • Velaric egressive
    • Velaric ingressive
    • Glottalic egressive
    • Glottalic ingressive
  • Manners of articulation
  • Sagittal section
