What are phonetics?!• Phonetics = is a branch of linguistics that
comprises the study of the sounds of human
speech.
• Phonology = The sound system of a language.

Spelling System!• The English spelling system can be extremely
difficult to learn.
• There are more sounds than letters.
• Twenty-six (26) letters exist in the
alphabet
• There are over forty (40)sounds.
![Page 17: An Introduction to Phonetics - PROFESSOR ARCE'S ESLprofessorarce.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/9/0/13906478/intro_to_phonetics.pdf · Alphabet! • Consonant = a speech sound that is articulated](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042809/5f8c9b0a8abdf6224116c6c0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

the same but have
different sounds.

Alphabet!• Consonant = a speech sound that is
articulated with complete or partial closure of
the vocal tract.
• Vowel = is a sound in spoken language,
pronounced with an open vocal tract so that
there is no build-up of air pressure at any
point above the glottis.

Consonants!• When making consonant sounds we have to
take into consideration three factors:
• How sound is produced?
• Place of Articulation
• Manner of Articulation
![Page 24: An Introduction to Phonetics - PROFESSOR ARCE'S ESLprofessorarce.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/9/0/13906478/intro_to_phonetics.pdf · Alphabet! • Consonant = a speech sound that is articulated](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042809/5f8c9b0a8abdf6224116c6c0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Consonants!• In phonetics, we have two ways of
pronouncing consonants.
• Voiced = there is vibration of the vocal
chords when pronouncing these sounds.
• Voiceless = there is NO vibration of the
vocal chords when pronouncing these
sounds.

Manner of Articulation!• Manner of Articulation = In linguistics, how
the speech organs of lips, tongue, and vocal
cords must be arranged in order to produce a
particular sound.
• For example,
• Nasal
• Stop
• Fricative
![Page 27: An Introduction to Phonetics - PROFESSOR ARCE'S ESLprofessorarce.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/9/0/13906478/intro_to_phonetics.pdf · Alphabet! • Consonant = a speech sound that is articulated](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042809/5f8c9b0a8abdf6224116c6c0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Manner of Articulation!• Stop = that you make by stopping the flow of
air completely and then suddenly letting it out
of your mouth.
• Fricative = produced by the forcing of breath
through a constricted passage.
• Affricate = A complex speech sound consisting
of a stop consonant followed by a fricative; for
example, the initial sounds of child and joy.
![Page 28: An Introduction to Phonetics - PROFESSOR ARCE'S ESLprofessorarce.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/9/0/13906478/intro_to_phonetics.pdf · Alphabet! • Consonant = a speech sound that is articulated](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042809/5f8c9b0a8abdf6224116c6c0/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Manner of Articulation!• Nasal = Articulated by lowering the soft palate
so that air resonates in the nasal cavities and
passes out the nose.
• Liquid = A consonant articulated without
friction and capable of being prolonged like a
vowel.
• Glide = The transitional sound produced by
passing from the articulatory position of one
speech sound to that of another.

Place of Articulation!• Bilabial = is a consonant that is articulated
using both lips.
• Example,
• [p] = peanut = voiceless bilabial stop
• [b] = butter = voiced bilabial stop
• [m] = man = voiced bilabial nasal
• [w] = woman = voiced bilabial glide

Place of Articulation!• Labiodental = a consonant whose articulation
involves the lips and teeth.
• Example,
• [f] = fear = voiceless labiodental
fricative
• [v] = vinegar = voiced labiodental
fricative
![Page 32: An Introduction to Phonetics - PROFESSOR ARCE'S ESLprofessorarce.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/9/0/13906478/intro_to_phonetics.pdf · Alphabet! • Consonant = a speech sound that is articulated](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042809/5f8c9b0a8abdf6224116c6c0/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Place of Articulation!• Interdental = Pertaining to the space between
the teeth; Pronounced with the tongue
between the top and bottom teeth.
• For example,
• [Ɵ] = thin = voiceless interdental fricative
• [ð] = the = voiced interdental fricative
![Page 33: An Introduction to Phonetics - PROFESSOR ARCE'S ESLprofessorarce.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/9/0/13906478/intro_to_phonetics.pdf · Alphabet! • Consonant = a speech sound that is articulated](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042809/5f8c9b0a8abdf6224116c6c0/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Place of Articulation!• Alveolar = a consonant articulated with the tip
of the tongue near the gum ridge.
• For example,
• [t] = touch = voiceless alveolar stop
• [d] = down = voiced alveolar stop
• [s] = sick = voiceless alveolar fricative
• [z] = zoo = voiced alveolar fricative
• [n] = no = voiced alveolar nasal
• [l] = lamb = voiced alveolar lateral

Place of Articulation!• Palatal = consonants articulated with the body
of the tongue raised against the hard palate
(the middle part of the roof of the mouth).
• For example,
• [ʃ] = sheet = voiceless palatal fricative
• [ʒ] = measure = voiced palatal fricative
• [ʧ] = chair = voiceless palatal affricate
• [ʤ] = jail = voiced palatal affricate

touching or near the soft palate.
• For example,
• [k] = king = voiceless velar stop
• [g] = gang = voiced velar stop
• [ŋ] = ring = voiced velar nasal
