Source:Phonology - Critical Concepts in Linguistics by Charles W. Kreidler Branches of Phonology 1. Segmental phonology :- It analyses speech into discrete segments, such as phonemes. 2. Supra- segmental phonology :- It analyses those features which extend over more than one segment such as intonation , stress. 3. Diachonic phonology :- It studies the patterns of sound system through the history of language. 4. Synchronic phonology :- It studies the patterns of sound regardless of the process of historical change. Phonetics & phonology • Phonetics is the study of sound in speech; phonology is the study (and use) of sound patterns to create meaning. • Phonetics focuses on how speech is physically created and received, including study of the human vocal and auditory tracts, acoustics, and neurology. • Phonology relies on phonetic information for its practice, but focuses on how patterns in both speech and non-verbal communication create meaning, and how such patterns are interpreted. • Phonology includes comparative linguistic studies of how cognates, sounds, and meaning are transmitted among and between human communities and languages. • Source;http://www.chegg.com/homework-help/definitions/phonetics-andphonology-51 More….. Phonology is concerned with the functional properties of speech sounds Phonetics is concerned with the physical aspects of speech sounds Three stages in speech chain • The production of the message • The transmission of the message • The reception of the message – Articulatory phonetics – Acoustic phonetics – Auditory phonetics The Speech Organs • • • • • • • • • • • Pharynx Oral Cavity Nasal Cavity Uvula Tongue (tip/blade/front/ middle/back/root) Hard Palate Soft Palate (Velum) Alveolar Ridge (teeth-ridge) Teeth (upper &lower) Lips (upper &lower) Epiglottis Process of Producing Speech The air breathed in → lungs → the air pressed out → mouth cavity windpipe (trachea) → larynx → pharynx → ↘ nasal cavity Voice Production •organs of speech - in the mouth and throat. • air pushed out from the lungs through the larynx and epiglottis vibrates the vocal cords• producing a continuous tone whose pitch can be changed by varying the shape of the larynx. • Consonants - modified by the tongue and lips, are formed when air is emitted suddenly or when it is cut off firmly. • Voice production occurs in the larynx •During breathing the vocal cords are held apart, but as speech commences, the cartilages of the larynx are drawn together by the action of muscles and a "chink" is created. • The tension of the vibrating cords, changed by the tilting of the cartilages, alters the pitch of the spoken sound. High notes are produced by the vibration of tight vocal cords and low notes are produced by vibrating loose cords. Definition of Consonants &Vowels Consonants: the sounds in the production of which there is an obstruction of the air- stream at some point of the vocal tract . Vowels: the sounds in the production of which no articulators come very close together and the air-stream passes through the vocal tract without obstruction. Place of Articulation • When describing the place of articulation, what we usually consider is the place within the vocal tract where the articulators form a stricture The place of articulation Bilabial e.g. [p], [m]. Labio-dental e.g. [f]. Dental e.g.[ð] Alveolar e.g. [t] Palatal e.g..[j]. Palato-alveolar e.g. [ʃ] Velar e.g. [k]. Glottal e.g. [h] Retroflex . Uvular, Pharyngeal Consonant Articulation  Places – lips (labial) – teeth (dental) – alveolar ridge (alveolar) – hard palate (palatal) – soft palate (velar) – uvula (uvular) – pharynx (pharngeal) – larynx/glottis (glottal) Manners stop/plosive fricative nasal lateral glide/approximant trill tap/flap Give the IPA symbol for each of the consonants described below • 1) voiced bilabial plosive • 2) voiceless alveolar plosive • 3) voiceless dental fricative b t Ѳ • 4) voiced bilabial nasal • 5) voiceless labio-dental fricative m f A Diagram of English Vowels
