Overview Between Phonetics And Phonology
At the very beginning, I want to sheds the light on the definition of both Phonetics and Phonology. Phonetics is considered the study of sounds of any
language, it relates to the mechanism of how sounds are produced and the way of speech sounds production. Phonology studies how those sounds are
put together to create meaning. It studies the rules of language that govern how those phonemes are combined to create meaningful words. Hereunder
detailed features of each branch of linguistics are explained.
On one hand, Phonetics is talking about the physical aspect of sounds; it studies the production and the perception of sounds, called phones. Phonetics
is the term for the description and classification of speech sounds. Sounds within phonetics are divided into vowels and consonants. Vowels are
embodied in the letters (i–e–o–a–u). Whereas, consonants letters are embodied in the rest set of English language alphabets. Vowels and consonants
describe the articulation of English language. Whereas there is another branch of phonetics called Acoustic phonetics that is related to the study of how
the sounds are transmitted, in other words the journey of sound from the mouth of the speaker tills the ear of the ... Show more content on

However, the combinations of these sources are present. There are different examples of sounds that are generated with each of these source
categories are seen in the word "shop," where the "sh" "o" and "p" are generated from a noisy, periodic, and impulsive source. The reader should
speak the word "shop" slowly and determine where each sound source is occurring, i.e., at the larynx or at a constriction within the vocal tract. There is
difference between phonemes and allophones. Aphoneme, is the smallest contrastive unit in the sound system of a certain language. A phoneme is the
smallest part of an utterance that cannot be changed if we want to retain the meaning. For

Contemporary Indonesian Phonology and Morphology: Some Evidence of Language Change and Innovations
The Roundtable Meeting, Leiden University, Leiden, 26' 28 March 2008

Abstract
For almost half a century Indonesian cannot refrain from having to bear with the mass and rapid influx of English loanwords. Since 1970s there has
been a strong pressure, initiated by Pusat Bahasa (the Language Center), for the change from Dutch–soundlike loanwords, such as tradisionil, universil,
komersiil, into English–soundlike loanwords, such as tradisional, universal, komersial, respectively. Although some Dutch–based forms like riel are
much more likely to be used than the more English–soundlike ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
except when they are palatal. It is also possible to have closed syllable ending in nasals (e.g. malam, bukan, yang) or lateral (e.g. nakal 'naughty').
The comparison between the loanwords in (1) to those in (2) may tempt one to arrive at the following explanation. The loanwords in (1) is accepted to
have a CVC structure because they share the conditions as described in the previous paragraph. When the loanwords end with final voiced consonants,
the CVC structure is not accepted and is to be modified into open syllables.
(1) bel, cek, gang, lem, ras, ton
(2)a. periode [pГ©riodД•] ( period b. metode [mД•todД•] ( method c. dekade [dГ©kadД•] ( decade [dikeid] d. tube [tubД•] ( tube [tju:b]
The same explanation underlies the reason for a form like imej 'image' to be rejected in standard Indonesian and, for a reason discussed in 2.2.3, such
a form is accepted in standard Malay.
2.2 The Advent of Consonant Cluster
Two types of consonant clusters under discussion here: initial and final.
2.2.1 Initial Consonant Cluster
Lauder's (1995b) counting of consonant clusters in the 1993 dictionary (KBBI 1993) reveals that syllables with CC amounts only 3.65%. Small though

Features And Features Of Phhonology
Introduction :
Phonology is the study of sound patterns in a language ,which sounds precede or follow which others or begin or end words; what kinds of sounds
make up syllables; how the occurrence of one sound in a particular word affects the other sounds around it; how suprasegmentals such as stress affect
the segmental sound with which they occur; and so forth.
The central concept in phonology is the phoneme, which is a distinctive category of sounds that all the native speakers of a language or dialect
perceive as more or less the same. Phoneme is the smallest element which words in a language can be broken down into. Phonologists point out that
phoneme can be broken down into smaller constituents which are the features. Features become the centre focus in phonological analysis. ... Show more

Distinctive feature are set of phonetic properties, as voicing, place of articulation or manner of articulation, serving to characterize and distinguish
between the particular sounds or phonemes in a language.
This paper aims to discuss the distinctive features in English phonology. The work consists of three parts. The first part discusses the notion of
distinctive features with focusing on distinctive features composition and label, types of features , functions of features and approaches to define

Children With Suspected Childhood Apraxia Of Speech
Introduction
Child hood Apraxia of Speech is a motor speech disorder that affects children's ability to say sounds, syllables, and words. The brain has trouble
coordinating muscle movements that are needed for speech. The child knows exactly what to speak, but the brain has trouble coordinating the muscle
movements. It is different for every person that has this type of disorder. In some other cases, it can be an unknown cause, meaning it can happen out
of the blue, or by mutations. One of the articles is based off of reliability and validity testing and scoring by the Dynamic Evaluation of Motor Speech
Skills, while the other has different assessments that were tested and transcribed.
First Summary of Article One
In the article, "Differential Diagnosis of Children with Suspected Childhood Apraxia of Speech", the authors describe the signs of a child having
Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS). If a child is suspected of having CAS, here are a few symptoms that can occur, shifting errors on consonants and
vowels in repetitive syllables and sounds, incorrect prosody, and interrupted articulatory between sounds and syllables. (Murray, McCabe, Heard, &
Ballard, 2015, p.44). A tool that is used to identify CAS is a Strands 10 point checklist. (Shriberg, Potter, & Strand, 2012). This is a checklist that
contains 10 segmental and suprasegmental structures. Authors say that this checklist doesn't lead to an exact assessment, but authors rely on it (Strand,

Phonology Of Grammar And Syntax
Grammar and syntax are in common because with syntax you are also using grammar. Knowing the parts of speech in grammar goes hand and hand
with syntax. The parts of speech are: Nouns (person, place, thing, or idea), Verbs (action or being), Prepositions (time, place, or position), Adjectives
(describes nouns and pronouns), Adverbs (describes verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs), Conjunctions (join words, phrases, or sentences), Interjections
(express emotion or are fillers in sentences), and Pronouns (take the place of nouns) are very important in both syntax and grammar (Lunsford, 2013,
pp.294–302). In the tree diagram, there are also functional categories and syntactic categories that are both grammar and syntax related.
Phonetics and Phonology Analysis Phonetics is the study of speech sounds and everything can be measured in phonetics. "The science of phonetics
attempts to describe all of the sounds used in all languages" (Fromkin, 2014, p.192). Articulatory, acoustic, and auditory are all part of speech sounds.
Articulatory phonetics is the way that sounds of language are produced through the vocal tract. Acoustic phonetics is how sound waves of the sounds
that we make, and auditory phonetics is the sound waves that are received when we hear sounds. Orthography is the way that words are spelled and
not necessarily how they are pronounced. In orthography, there can be many words spelled different, but the sounds may sound the same. The sound of
these letters can all

The Beneficial and Detrimental Effects of Phonology Essay
For years, phonology has been incorporated into language education. Young children are introduced to phonics as educators take them through visual
flash cards, teaching them the sounds of the alphabet. Children learn to connect sounds into words, using what they learned from the alphabet to apply
a system of sounds into a word. Controversy regarding this reading education method has additionally been popular. Although researchers have found
negative effects in learning to read phonologically, teachers can still strategically incorporate it into the classroom as long as they are aware of its
potential negative effects. According to Bentin S. (1991), phonological awareness is "the ability to recognize the internal phonetic structure... Show

This is partially because the English language is sometimes difficult to phonetically learn since some rules do not apply and it becomes confusing for
the learner and difficult for the educator. Although semantics appear to be a beneficial method, there are many scholars who argue otherwise.
Dewhurst, S. and Robinson, C. (2004) discuss some of the negative effects among children whose education focuses more on semantics than phonetics.
The study was conducted on 5,8, and 11–year old children and "children from each age group falsely recalled nonpresented items related to the study
lists" (782). Although the study varied depending on the age group, it was clear that the focus of semantics has caused children to have "memory
illusions" as they read (782). Many scholars argue that phonetics is the most effective way to teach reading skills because it makes the individual a
better reader in the long run. Once a child can phonetically read, they have the capability to pick any book up and "sound out" its contents. Children
who learn semantically are unable to do this because they learn to memorize certain words as they go. A positive element to learning semantically,
however, is the child's ability to read quickly. Once a child has established a memorization and recognition to words, they are able to read very
quickly. Children who learn phonetically are often slower since they are sometimes required to stop and "sound it out". However

Reading Achievement Of Deaf And Hard Of Hearing
I.В¬Introduction This chapter provides an overview of the present study. First, reading achievement and difficulties of students who are d/Deaf and
hard of hearing (d/Dhh) are discussed. Second, it justifies the theoretical framework of the study with three primary sources: Simple View of Reading
(Gough & Tunmer, 1986; Hoover & Gough, 1990), the National Reading Panel (NRP, 2000), and the Qualitative Similarity Hypothesis (QSH) (Paul,
Wang, & Williams, 2013). Next, Visual Phonics is explained. Then this chapter introduces the purpose of the study and proposes three research
questions. It also briefly discusses the research methodology for gathering data relevant to the questions. The last part of the chapter provides details
about the key terms of the study.
a.Reading Achievement of d/Dhh Students Reading is an essential skill for social life and academic success. Learning to read is a complex process.
Some students learn to read effortlessly, but others find it difficult. Reading difficulties of d/Dhh students are well documented. Most students with
severe to profound hearing loss graduate from a high school with approximately a fourth–grade reading level (Paul, 2009; Paul, Wang, & Williams,
2013; Traxler, 2000; Wurst, Jones, & Luckner, 2005). Fourth grade reading level is considered functionally illiterate because the literate reading level
is a 5th or 6th grade (Paul, 1997), and the majority of students who graduate from a high school are functionally illiterate.

Syllable structure
Hierarchical Structure of the Syllable
Most of modern phonological theories agree that the syllable has constituent or hierarchical rather than linear structure. The syllable (conventionally
marked as small Greek sigma: σ) has two immediate constituents (it "branches" into two elements, to put it in another way) В– the Onset (O),
which includes any consonants that precede the nuclear element (the vowel), and the Rhyme (R), which includes the nuclear element (the vowel) as
well as any marginal elements (consonants) that might follow it. The Rhyme, in turn, branches into Peak (P), also known as Nucleus (N), and Coda
(Co). The Peak (Nucleus), as the designation suggests, represents the "nuclear" or most sonorous

Phonology : Phonology And Phonological Development
Phonology and phonological development are important to language acquisition. In researching Hebrew phonology and its development; we
learned how it is perceived, interpreted. The common theme across the articles was Hebrew language, like other languages, involves many levels of
acquisition. In our research we observed different aspects of the language such as its stress patterns, acoustics, bilingual acquisition and its
development along with learning how old Yiddish became Modern Hebrew; a language that borrows lexical terms and phrases. There is a link
between all that we studied. Perceptions can be manipulated by prosody and intonation in one's voice and as a result, we interpret the acoustic signal
and infer its message. Bilingual acquisition is related here as well. We receive acoustic cues that determine how we acquire language in that we record
pitch, stress and intonation and link to memory how the word should be used. Lastly, as dominant as a language can be it can be changed or modified.
Modern Hebrew is combined of Yiddish and, the ancient languages, Sephardic and Ashkenazi Hebrew. It also incorporates the languages and phrases
from outside influences. Due to the assimilation of languages, the stress and pronunciation of words have changed the original lexical representations
and phonological rules thereby creating a modern language. Hebrew language is fascinating and it is growing in the United States. It is ranked the 14th

Language Expquisition : The Study Of Language Acquisition
Language acquisition is the study of how language is learned. There are two different ways to study language acquisition: by observing and describing.
There is a clear difference in the way that adults and children speak. "Children do not perfect their native pronunciation for several years, but they
establish crucial phonological patterns in the early months that serve them for life" (Herschensohn 29). Phonology is the study of the sound patterns
that occur within languages. By studying phonology, you can pinpoint patterns within speech to understand the processes a child uses when
speaking. For this project, we were given four different sound files of child named Lyra. In each file, the child was recorded in her normal home
environment, each at a different age. We were required to translate her utterances into IPA and then identify the processes that she used in her speech.
Next, we were to connect the work completed on the files with concepts we learned in class. This paper will attempt to demonstrate the sounds Lyra
made in each file, the processes she used and why.
Lyra's productive sound inventory is consistent with many children's inventory. She does not drastically change sounds, but just tends to tweak them.
She does not appear to have much trouble with vowels, but consonants do seem to give her trouble. At one–year–old, she appears to have the most
trouble with trills. She turns the trill [r] into the labial velar approximant [w]. She also changes velar

The Status Of Onset Of Somali Syllable Structure
THE STATUS OF ONSET IN SOMALI SYLLABLE STRUCTURE: AN OPTIMALITY THEORETIC STUDY
Abstract:
The onset in Somali syllable structure provokes considerable argument among scholars who are interested in the syllable structure in this language.
Owrin (1996) and Saeed (1999) agree that onset is mandatory in this language whereas Zetterholm and Tronnier (2012) state onsets are as optional as
codas in this language. Therefore, this research is to investigate whether onsets in Somali syllable structure are mandatory or optional in light of
Optimality Theory (OT), as a framework. This study primarily depends on data taken from extant literature including books, articles, and theses.
Furthermore, 10 Somali native speakers were consulted about the fact of data. This study concludes that consonant epenthesis as well as resyllbification
manifest the importance of onsets in Somali. Consonant epenthesis occurs initially when a monosyllable word begins with a vowel (onsetless syllable),
e.g., /ГЁj/в†’ [К”ГЁj] 'dog'. Likewise, this type of epenthesis is found in the intervocalic position when syllables of the form CV are associated with
vowel–initial suffixes, e.g. /ma–a:n/в†’ [ma.ЙЃa:n] 'not I'. The process of resyllabification in Somali is motivated by syllable types CVC and CVVC
that are associated with vowel–initial suffixes, e.g. /na:ЙЎ–i/в†’[na:.ЙЎi] 'woman', /war.qad–u:/в†’ [war.qa.du:] formal letters'.

Essay On Phonetics And Phonology
This paper investigates the contribution of early Arab scholars in general phonetics and phonology and its impact on modern phonetics. It is important
to note that phonetics and phonology were not independent disciplines. Rather, they were part of other disciplines. Therefore, in terms of early Arab
contribution to phonetics and phonology, their scholarship can be derived from three major areas:
(i) Arabic linguistics whose pioneers are AlkhalД«l Al–FarДЃhД«di through his book Al'ain, Sibawayh through his book Al–KitДЃb, and Ibn Jinni
through his book Sir SМҐina'at Ali'rДЃb.

According to this phonological rule, he classifies sounds into consonants and vowels (sДЃit and sДЃmit). Based on his own statistics, Al–Kindi makes
a universal conclusion that consonants are more frequent than vowels in all languages. Then, he divides vowels into long and short. Moreover, he
establishes more than one hundred phonological rules of euphony and cacophony. Al–Kindi has also written another book of applied phonetics
(Allathghah (lisping)) in which he tackles speech defects. In the introduction of the book, he gives a detailed description of the speech mechanisms of
various languages. Then he discusses the reasons of lisping and the description of places of articulation with an anatomical analysis. Al–Kindi is the
first Arabic physician who discusses acoustic phonetics, dynamics of air, air stream mechanism, and auditory perception of linguistic and

Identity is formed through the mutual trends of a group through slang and is used as identification for users who have these lexical features in
common. The shortening of the lexeme whatever to "whatevz" or the reduplication and shortening of "crazy" to "cray cray" are words that have
appealed to young Australian teenagers. Through use of diminutives, identity can be further formed as they are uniquely Australian, where lexemes are
shortened to a syllable and the suffix of –ie, –y or –o is added like "smoko" for smoking, "devo" for devastated and "bottle–o" for a liquor store. The
use of slang like this enhances our identity and care free nature that helps us understand phrases like "I'm devo that brekky at Maccas is done". This
way slang builds certain characteristics that are known to Australians in the same way phonological features have.
A recent phonological development in Australian English displays a difference between younger and older generations through the High Rising
Terminal (HRT) which is a rising intonation contour on declarative clauses. The intonation pattern is considered a distinctive feature of Australian

Difference Between Phonetics And Phonology
Introduction: Phonetics and phonology both study the sound system but in a different way. Phonetics and Phonology both are important for a language
as phonetics represents the speech production system and the perception of human beings, sign language and phonology represents the sound system
conveying its meaning. Every language has language system by which we can communicate and pronounce words in a good way. Linguistics is called
as the "Scientific Study of Language". Linguistics utilizes scientific formulas and principles in language system. Linguistics has several branches.
Phonetics and phonology are the two fundamental branches of them. Phonology often guided by phonetics. Phonology is also sometimes called as
phonemics or phonematics. The main difference between phonetics and phonology is that phonetics concerned with physical properties of pronouncing
sounds and phonology concerned with the organized structure of language though these two study the sound system.

Phonological Development Of Native Japanese Speakers Essay
Abstract
The current study looked at the phonological development of native Japanese speakers who speak English as a second language. Two subjects were
given a word list of English words to read from and recorded. The recordings were then analyzed based on their divergence from English phonology.
The recordings were also shown to native English speakers to rate the foreign accent of the subjects. The current study was conducted under the
hypothesis that the speakers' L1 would interfere with the phonological development in their L2, and looked at other factors such as speakers' attitude
and differences in natural ability.

Second language learners who begin to acquire a language later in life are often thought to have more trouble with learning to pronounce the sounds of
their second language than learners who began second language acquisition early in life. In the Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis (CAH), the errors in
pronunciation are the result of transfer from the speaker's native language (L1) to their second language (L2). However, other factors can account for
the troubles second language learners encounter in their pronunciation. Factors such as the positive or negative attitude towards the target language as

Characteristics Of Lingustics
Lingustics is by far one of the most intriguing subjects and classes I have ever taken before. In my opinion, it is a subject everyone seems to be
familiar with, yet not really aware of how and why we know the gist of it. Lingustics is the scientific study of human language and its structure, we
study language because it teaches us how to communicate with others. Language is everywhere and part of our everyday lives, we use language to
communicate with everyone around us. For many communication is vital as part of our jobs and for others it is a form of expression. Language is
something that can make us feel good and happy, if someone compliments you, it makes you feel good, but it is also something that can be used to
hurt and make people cry, it is a powerful tool humans have. Language whether it be verbal or not has meaning and we must know the basics in order
to communicate effectively. In lingustics we learn about the different perspective of language and the different aspects that language is made up of,
including phonetics, phonology morphology, and syntax. Morphology and morphemes are what we know as the sounds of language, morphology
are what we know as words and synatx are the sentences that compose our language. There is a lot more to language than what the common person

The Phonological Growth Of Language Study Through...
This history of phonological theory has been in bloom since it was generated some 150 years ago. The depth of phonological phenomena has, in
actuality, been in abstract existence since the first spoken language was developed as it is a natural component of all human language. In this paper I
hope to produce a clear, concise analysis and discussion of the phonological growth of language study through perception and production while
introducing the criticisms and problems associated with these theories. The history of phonological theory goes farther back than phonemics, but for
the sake of space and time, I will start during the beginning of the 20th century and finish with a contrastive analysis of the present theories of
phonology.
The development of modern phonology theory began with the ideas presented by Ferdinand de Saussure, a Swiss linguist in the late 19th century. His
book "Course in General Linguistics" provoked the switch from a diachronic to a synchronic phonological examination. Synchronic linguistics, the
study of contemporary spoken languages, was developed by Jan Baudouin de Courtenay with the structuralist linguistic theory of Saussure. This
analysis of phonology prompted the establishment of the Prague Circle.
Two famous students from this circle, Roman Jakobson and Nikolai Trubetzkoy, went on to define the phoneme and create a popular analysis of
language at the time called structuralism. The mentalist interpretation of a phoneme, credited by Courtenay,

errors were made for instance, with the word "elephant" /Й›lЙ™fЙ™nt/ being pronounced "elephan" /Й›lЙ™fЙ™n/ and "bridge" / brЙЄК’
/ pronounced as "brich" /brЙЄК§/. The addition of the /Й›/ sound were noted in some words beginning with "s" /s/ such as "sled" /slЙ›d/ pronounced
as "esled" /Й›slЙ›d/. Stopping was found in several words where the sound /Г°/ was replaced with the sound /d/. For example, the word "them" /Г°Й›m
/ was pronounced as "dem" /dЙ›m/ and "mother" /mКЊГ°Йљ/ pronounced as "mudder" /mКЊdЙљ/. Alexis also made several substitution error as

The Instruction Of Spoken Language
The instruction of spoken language is one of the most important for language classrooms since communication has been the main priority for language
teachers. The use of discourse analysis (DA) for language teaching (LT) has been indispensable; due to the immense number of elements that contribute
significantly to this field. In addition, Schiffrin et al. (2001:707) cited Olshtain and Celce–Murcia who claim that pragmatics and DA are related to
language teaching. Both of these create essential connections that make teaching of spoken language relevant; nevertheless, there are more elements

The aim of this paper is to examine how DA relates and benefits LT. First, I would like to... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
For this reason, spoken production can be improved if these elements are taught adequately. Nevertheless, a question may be aroused after this, what
amount of vocabulary, grammar and phonology do instructors need to teach?
Teaching speaking effectively goes in hand with DA and several language applications which focus on how oral speech needs to be delivered.
Hence, vocabulary one of the three main elements is the one that deals with the lexicon of the language. Instructors need to teach words in context; as
a consequence, the new lexis will be storage faster and it will be ready to be used either in spoken or written language (Scrivener 2011:200).
Therefore, vocabulary plays an important role in the instruction of spoken language. Nonetheless, words can express more than one meaning and this
can cause a couple of difficulties to students while they are learning such language. As part of this, if DA takes place in the classroom, it can be found
easily that words may vary from meaning to meaning. In addition, DA and semantics also alter the way that speakers select words to be used. Finch
(2003) defines semantics as the study of the meaning; thus, what words or utterances can be meant at the moment of using them. By the same token,
Lakoff and Johnson (1990) claim that there are two types of meaning "literal" and "figurative". The first one represents what it has been said; whereas

Difficulties Of Second Language Phonology
1.Introduction
The mastery of second language phonology refers to the acquisition of the second language (English) sound system, listening comprehension and
speaking skills. The acquisition of the L2 phonology is an area of language that has not been thoroughly investigated like other parts of language such
as syntax or grammar. In fact, it is only in the last quarter of the twentieth century that studies about this area of language have emerged. As such,
research studies about this aspect of second language learning are quite small and recent.
The aim of this essay is to present some difficulties that L2 speakers face when learning English phonology, to analyse the importance of phonology in
L2 speech and to discuss second language transference of L1 in the L2.
2.Difficulties
English phonology is a rather difficult part to master; this is due to various things:
In English the correspondence between symbols and sounds is not regular, but inconsistent.

This occurs because children are able to create new categories for the L2 sound system. This ability, however, starts to decrease at the age of two and
stops when children reach puberty. Therefore, people who were exposed to the second language at an early age may achieve native–like proficiency,
but people who were exposed to the L2 language later on in life may not be able to attain native–like proficiency. However, while many studies have
demonstrated that children are able to learn second language phonology much more easily and rapidly, there are people who started to learn a second
language in adulthood and talk like a native speaker, and there are other people who started this process in childhood and were not able to achieve

Background
Phonological delay is a label given to those individuals who have speech sound error patterns that are usually normal for younger children, but the
individuals with the delay have not yet mastered these phonological processes (Waring, Eadie, Liow, & Dodd, 2016).
Pre–school aged children include children ages 3 to 5 years old (Waring, Eadie, Liow, & Dodd, 2016).

in 2016, and it is only one year old. This indicates that the information is current and up to date compared to other older findings in the field. The data
collection process is also thoroughly described in the methodology section of the article (Waring, Eadie, Liow, & Dodd, 2016).
Article Review This article discusses the differences between working memory and short–term memory in children who have either a phonological
delay or typically developing speech. It aims at discovering whether there is any other language or cognitive aspects that are involved in phonological
errors in children with phonological delay and the differences between phonological working memory and phonological short–term memory. This was
measured using various memory tasks and measuring each child's receptive vocabulary size (Waring, Eadie, Liow, & Dodd, 2016).
The subjects of this study are children that solely speak English and have typically developing speech and language skills and children that speak
only English and have a phonological delay. These children had to have a score greater than 85 on the CELF P–2, the Clinical Evaluation of Language

Comparing Literacy And Language Models
Success in education depends on how literate one is. Moreover, being literate is more than being able to read and write, rather it is the student's ability
to apply the skills taught effectively on a job, in society, and to further their education. "Students with strong literacy skills have promising educational
and career options, while most students with weak skills face a future of being undereducated and underemployed as they struggle with undeveloped
personal goals and unfulfilling, low–paying jobs" [Hock & Deshler, 2003]. Consequently, the ensuing paper will compare literacy and language models
used in a bilingual education program and will select models that would be useful in establishing a bilingual program.
Comparing Literacy and Language Models
"Literacy is defined as a social practice, meaning a form of activity through which we use text in culturally appropriate ways for specific purposes"
[Kern, 2000]. On the other hand, Neilson (2014) argues that "the power of literacy lies not just in the ability to read and write, but rather in a
person's capacity to apply these skills to effectively connect, interpret and discern the intricacies of the world in which they live" [Delvene, 2014,
para. 1]. Significantly, when these two perspectives are analyzed, literacy can be seen as a skill and a tool. Whereby, students, can possess the learned
skills and still be unable to utilize these skills in an informative way.

PHONOLOGY AND SYLLABLE
The syllable and grammar for the second era are subject to be studied in commensuration with the phonology of the Arabic language in a
multi–linguistic scenario of community. This is due to the fact that most of the communications at the regional level are oral by nature. Thus, the
features of grammar and syllable cannot be ignored. It has been identified by Kahn (1976) that a mere hypothetical word "atkin" is not used and
identified in English but without a syllable. The arrangements of the letters neither assumed later and former use of letters. But, there is a central place
exists in few words; such as, "Caltex". Because of this, such types of words are not found easily in the English literature because of the placement and
arrangements of the letters in the word. The next matter of consideration is the segmental phonology rules; assimilation, length, neutralization,
affrication, use of consonant and vowels. These rules are considered in alignment with the syllables of the word. A Syllable can use the segmental
phonology rules; thus, the element of pharyngealization is observed rather than the use of other rules and practices. Moreover, the elements of rules are
determined through the use of various functions; hence, there is obstruent exist in English which are the factors talk about the placement of the letter

English language has that kind of rhythm called stressed–timed where stressed syllables occur in a sentence at fairly regular intervals of time even if
there are many unstressed syllables between them. Vocal folds vibrate with different frequencies when we speak and the faster they vibrate the higher
the pitch is. In English it does not make a big difference if you say words with low or high pitch they still remain the same meaning. Tone languages
are those languages where the pitch changes the meaning of words e.g. some African, Asian and Native American languages. In Mandarin Chinese /ma

THE BRANCHES OF PHONETICS
Phonetics is the study of speech sounds. Although language is obviously composed of sound, speech sound came to be the main focus of linguistic
investigation only in the 20th century. 19th century linguists were more interested in written rather than spoken language. Only with the work of
Swiss linguist Ferdinand de Saussure in the early 20th century did linguists recognize the primacy of sound in human language and the secondary,
superficial nature of writing. As a result phonetics has therefore evolved into three main branches of type:
ACOUSTIC PHONETICS is the study of the physical properties of sounds, the air wave frequencies of which sounds consists. The frequency of
vibrations measured in hertz; volume of sound measured in decibels. Instruments used to measure and records speech sounds include the sound
spectrograph, which produces read outs called sound spectrograms.
AUDITORY PHONETICS is also called perception phonetics because it is the study of how sounds are perceived and recognized by the human ear

Difference Between Phonology And Phonemic Awareness
The terms phonological awareness and phonemic awareness are used interchangeably .Phonological awareness represents a range of manipulation and
detection skills across different sizes of sound pieces. Phonemic awareness, however, specifically refers to the ability to manipulate and detect the
smallest sound pieces in words (the phonemes). It refers to the ability to manipulate the phonemic structure of an utterance independently from its
meaning. It is the awareness that words are composed of smaller units, that alliteration is when words begin with the same sound segment, and that
rhyming is caused by words ending with the same sound segment. Therefore, it refers to the auditory task of identifying, distinguishing between, and
working with an utterance at the level of larger units such as words, and syllables, or at the level of smaller units, such as phonemes. It also includes
awareness of speech sounds at all levels including word, syllable, onset rime or phoneme. Phonemic awareness is an advanced stage of phonological
awareness, defined as the ability to recognize that a spoken word consists of a sequence of phonemes. It is the capacity to isolate word segments, such as

Phonemic awareness is an understanding of spoken language. Phonological awareness entails understanding of spoken language and involves tasks

What Are The Rules Of Phonology
Rules of Phonology
The easiest way to understand what the rules of phonology are for is that it translates phonemes to the real sounds, called allophones. Whatever we
utter or produce using our vocal chords are allophones, which has physical entities to it. While, phonemes are what is received by the listener that has
mental entities and are representative. The classes of phonemes that are bound to these rules are: voiced consonants, rounded vowels, nasals, sibilants
and etc. The existence of variations in every language makes the phonological rules important to maintain recognizable words. Therefore, the rules of
phonology are used to show the patterns of distribution of sounds in a particular language which might vary in different languages. In the rules of
phonology, there are several feature–changing rules that change the value of a certain component feature of a sound. For example, the feature of a
sound could change from non– nasal to nasal or from short to long. Presumably, different languages have different rules, but some are very common in
every language. Among these feature–changing rules are assimilation rules. Assimilation can be defined ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Among them is the voicing assimilation, which can be defined as the originally voiceless sound picked up the feature voiced from another sound. For
example, the word "roses" is pronounced as [rЙ™КЉzЙ™z] that shows the voiceless / s/ picked up the voiced feature of / z/. Next, there is a
devoicing feature changes in assimilation. On the contrary of voicing, the voiced sound picked up the voiceless feature of another sound which
reportedly common when speakers pronounced the phrase "have to". Originally in English, the "have" ends with the voiced phoneme / v/, [hæːv t ͪ

Introduction & Hypothesis Previous to Cao, Brennan, & Booth (2015), various studies have examined the relationship between acquisition of reading
skills and neuronal activation. Despite the extensive evidence that there are dynamic changes in systems where adaptation takes place, it is still
unknown to what extent the acquisition of fundamentally different languages results in differing brain networks. The current study proposes the
hypothesis that learning to read leads to a growing divergence between different orthographies with increased experience. The legitimacy of the
hypothesis is supported by the fact that alphabetic orthographies (i.e. English) use highly frequent mapping between letters (graphemes) and sounds ...
Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
(2015), the focus of the research expands on previous findings that there is a modulatory role of primary language in learning to read a secondary
language. The phonological aspect is of particular concern as the researchers distinguish between addressed and assembled phonologies. Known as the
dual–route model of word learning, assembled phonology (i.e. grapheme–to–phoneme mapping) is typically utilized to read unfamiliar words whereas
addressed phonology makes use of the relationship between the visual appearance of words and their sounds, and is consequently employed for
familiar word reading. Due to the differences in orthography between English and Chinese, it is unsurprising that alphabetic languages emphasize
assembled phonology while logographic languages, without letter–phoneme mappings, rely on addressed phonology. As found in Cao, Brennan, &
Booth (2015), existing research indicates that cognitive and neural mechanisms can be shaped by native language. In Mei et al. (2015), the
assimilation–accomodation hypothesis essentially posits that these influentially developed neural mechanisms will inevitably affect the processing of a
second language. The present study adopted a Korean artificial language training paradigm in order to examine the potential differences
hypothesized to exist between native English speakers and native Chinese speakers. The recruits consisted of 42 native Chinese speakers and 43
native English speakers, neither of which had prior experience with the Korean language. Within both samples, participants were divided in terms of
the type of training (i.e. addressed phonology vs assembled phonology). A total of 120 artificial language words were used. They were divided into

The Relationship Between Phonology And Morphology
3.The relationship between Phonology and Morphology.
The relation between the distribution of phonemes and grammatical units such as morphemes and words is therefore an aspect of the interface between
Phonology and morphology. Both Phonology and Morphology study various patterns in languages all over the world. Considering the similarities of
these fields, both are engaged in the scientific analysis of languages. Both are sub branches of Linguistics and without studying Phonology, one cannot
move on to Morphology. There is an inter–relationship between these subjects. For differences, we can identify that Phonology mainly concentrates on
sound systems of a language while Morphology pays attention to the word and the morphemes of a language. (Booij, 2007)
Then, in general, the interaction between phonology and morphology can be illustrated into at least four points:
1–Phonological rules may precede the morphological rules. Therefore, phonemes are considered to be the basic units of speech sound by which
morphemes are represented. According to Kiparsky (1985), there are two common word–internal phonological domains, level 1 or the stem level, ...

Segmental phonology is a bottom up view of phonology which deals with the
individual sounds which make a difference to meaning. These are called phonemes and their effect can be seen clearly in the following example: *
Red (colour). * Read (past tense of the verb to read). * Read (present tense of the verb to read).

The Importance Of Language And Literacy
Language is universal with many dialects across the world. Many people consider language as being spoken or written, but it is much more than
that. It can be viewed as unchanging and conventional, or regarded as dynamic and changing. Language and literacy can be analysed and examined,
broken down to reveal how it is made up of all its intricate parts that form language. The impact of language in different perspectives, affect people
in their daily lives, either in a good or bad context. Language has developed over time, and we now live in a digital world. This has affected people in
a social and business life, diversifying how language is communicated. Language has many functions and roles. In the past, theorists have debated how
language is developed, be it behavioural, cognitive or linguistic. Language is a form of communication that it is a complex and a unique human quality
that is diversified throughout the world.
From the illustration of "Language is very like a fish?" (Grugeon and Gardner 2000, p105) it explores the concept of language being likened to a fish.

The process of reading development has different levels of phonological awareness within words: syllables, onsets and rimes, and sounds. Good
readers look for familiar "letter patterns" as one strategy when attempting to decode or spell unfamiliar words–they use familiar sound chunks from
known words, not just individual sounds (Bradley, & Bryant, 1983; Lenel & Cantor, 1981). Thomas Gunning 1974 reported that students look for
"pronounceable word parts" .This "chunking / grouping" of sounds makes the reading and writing process much more effective and efficient. This
letter pattern learning is based on familiar syllable or rhyme patterns as well as sound clusters and individual sounds. This ability helps child to find
out inside words for syllables, rhymes, and individual sounds. Child has to segment, blend, and manipulate syllables, onset and rime, and sounds of a
particular word; this ability makes the child successful in using letter–sound knowledge effectively for reading and writing (Bradley, & Bryant, 1983;
Lenel & Cantor, 1981; Maclean, Bryant, & Bradley, 1987). The phonological awareness skills of segmenting and blending are the most highly
correlated with beginning reading acquisition (Snow 192).
Students who may be at risk for reading difficulty often have poorer levels of phonological awareness than others (Stanovitch Cunningham, & Cramer,
1984). Although related, phonemic awareness is different from auditory discrimination, phonetics, and phonics. The young child has the ability to
notice, mentally grab hold of, and manipulate different sound smallest chunks of speech (Hodges & Harris, 1995; Tunmer, Herriman, & Nesdale, 1988;

The Difference Between Phonetics And Phonology
Language is a human attribute. People are able to exchange knowledge, information, opinions, beliefs, wishes, and promises through language. It has
been defined as a system of communication based upon words and combination of words into sentences. The systemic study of human language is
defined as linguistics. It is concerned with the nature of language and communication. It includes diverse disciplines, for examples, phonetics,
phonology, syntax, and semantics. The research will focus on the phonetics and phonology and how they study the sound system of the language but in
a different way. In addition, we will discuss the definition of phonology and phoneme and the difference between phoneme and allophone besides
illustrating some of the phonological rules. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
phonetics is the study of human sounds, describing and recording the sound language. The study of phonetics is not only to indicate the difference
between the written and spoken language but it is about describing the sounds that are made when we articulate a word. On the other hand, phonology
is the description of the system and patterns of speech sound; based on a theory of what every speaker of a language unconsciously knows about the
sound patterns of that language. In addition, Phonology is concerned with the abstract or mental aspects of sounds in language. Compare to phonetics?
Phonetics is the physical properties of speech sounds, for example, how the sound is physically produced. Phonology serves as the underlying design
for all the variations in different physical articulations of a sound type in different

Analysis Of The Basque-American Indian Pidgin
The Basque–American Indian pidgin found in the north–eastern part of North America was first documented in the early seventeenth century. Although
it is believed to have first been used in the sixteenth century, this was the first time that there was recorded documentation of someone experiencing the
pidgin. The pidgin was created between the Basque people of Spain and France and the American Indian people of North America. The pidgin is
believed to be composed from a lot of Basque words and influence and the different languages the native people spoke. The native people spoke
variations of the Algonquian language, and their influence is also seen in the pidgin. The pidgin was mostly spoken between the Basque people and
the native people, although the native people also used it when speaking to visiting Frenchmen. The Basque people were mostly seafarers and
sheepherders, while the native people were mostly hunters and farmers. When these the two groups met it was usually to conduct trade of some sort.
The Basque–American Indian pidgin was a pidgin used to help the Basque people and the native people to communicate. Before going into the
linguistic portion of the analysis, we need to talk about the pidgin itself and how it came to be. That is; what the superstrate and the substrate of the
pidgin are. Based on my analysis of the phonology, morphology, and lexicon I have come to the conclusion that the superstrate of the pidgin was the
Basque language. This

Overview Between Phonetics And Phonology

  • 1. Overview Between Phonetics And Phonology At the very beginning, I want to sheds the light on the definition of both Phonetics and Phonology. Phonetics is considered the study of sounds of any language, it relates to the mechanism of how sounds are produced and the way of speech sounds production. Phonology studies how those sounds are put together to create meaning. It studies the rules of language that govern how those phonemes are combined to create meaningful words. Hereunder detailed features of each branch of linguistics are explained. On one hand, Phonetics is talking about the physical aspect of sounds; it studies the production and the perception of sounds, called phones. Phonetics is the term for the description and classification of speech sounds. Sounds within phonetics are divided into vowels and consonants. Vowels are embodied in the letters (i–e–o–a–u). Whereas, consonants letters are embodied in the rest set of English language alphabets. Vowels and consonants describe the articulation of English language. Whereas there is another branch of phonetics called Acoustic phonetics that is related to the study of how the sounds are transmitted, in other words the journey of sound from the mouth of the speaker tills the ear of the ...

There are different examples of sounds that are generated with each of these source categories are seen in the word "shop," where the "sh" "o" and "p" are generated from a noisy, periodic, and impulsive source. The reader should speak the word "shop" slowly and determine where each sound source is occurring, i.e., at the larynx or at a constriction within the vocal tract. There is difference between phonemes and allophones. Aphoneme, is the smallest contrastive unit in the sound system of a certain language. A phoneme is the smallest part of an utterance that cannot be changed if we want to retain the meaning. For ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Contemporary Indonesian Phonology and Morphology: Some Evidence of Language Change and Innovations The Roundtable Meeting, Leiden University, Leiden, 26' 28 March 2008 Bambang Kaswanti Purwo Atma Jaya Catholic University Abstract For almost half a century Indonesian cannot refrain from having to bear with the mass and rapid influx of English loanwords. Since 1970s there has been a strong pressure, initiated by Pusat Bahasa (the Language Center), for the change from Dutch–soundlike loanwords, such as tradisionil, universil, komersiil, into English–soundlike loanwords, such as tradisional, universal, komersial, respectively. Although some Dutch–based forms like riel are much more likely to be used than the more English–soundlike ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... except when they are palatal. It is also possible to have closed syllable ending in nasals (e.g. malam, bukan, yang) or lateral (e.g. nakal 'naughty'). The comparison between the loanwords in (1) to those in (2) may tempt one to arrive at the following explanation. The loanwords in (1) is accepted to have a CVC structure because they share the conditions as described in the previous paragraph. When the loanwords end with final voiced consonants, the CVC structure is not accepted and is to be modified into open syllables. (1) bel, cek, gang, lem, ras, ton (2)a. periode [pГ©riodД•] ( period b. metode [mД•todД•] ( method c. dekade [dГ©kadД•] ( decade [dikeid] d. tube [tubД•] ( tube [tju:b] The same explanation underlies the reason for a form like imej 'image' to be rejected in standard Indonesian and, for a reason discussed in 2.2.3, such a form is accepted in standard Malay. 2.2 The Advent of Consonant Cluster
  • 3. Two types of consonant clusters under discussion here: initial and final. 2.2.1 Initial Consonant Cluster Lauder's (1995b) counting of consonant clusters in the 1993 dictionary (KBBI 1993) reveals that syllables with CC amounts only 3.65%.

  • 4. Features And Features Of Phhonology Introduction : Phonology is the study of sound patterns in a language ,which sounds precede or follow which others or begin or end words; what kinds of sounds make up syllables; how the occurrence of one sound in a particular word affects the other sounds around it; how suprasegmentals such as stress affect the segmental sound with which they occur; and so forth. The central concept in phonology is the phoneme, which is a distinctive category of sounds that all the native speakers of a language or dialect perceive as more or less the same. Phoneme is the smallest element which words in a language can be broken down into. Phonologists point out that phoneme can be broken down into smaller constituents which are the features. Features become the centre focus in phonological analysis. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Distinctive feature are set of phonetic properties, as voicing, place of articulation or manner of articulation, serving to characterize and distinguish between the particular sounds or phonemes in a language. This paper aims to discuss the distinctive features in English phonology. The work consists of three parts.

  • 5. Children With Suspected Childhood Apraxia Of Speech Introduction Child hood Apraxia of Speech is a motor speech disorder that affects children's ability to say sounds, syllables, and words. The brain has trouble coordinating muscle movements that are needed for speech. The child knows exactly what to speak, but the brain has trouble coordinating the muscle movements. It is different for every person that has this type of disorder. In some other cases, it can be an unknown cause, meaning it can happen out of the blue, or by mutations. One of the articles is based off of reliability and validity testing and scoring by the Dynamic Evaluation of Motor Speech Skills, while the other has different assessments that were tested and transcribed. First Summary of Article One In the article, "Differential Diagnosis of Children with Suspected Childhood Apraxia of Speech", the authors describe the signs of a child having Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS). If a child is suspected of having CAS, here are a few symptoms that can occur, shifting errors on consonants and vowels in repetitive syllables and sounds, incorrect prosody, and interrupted articulatory between sounds and syllables. (Murray, McCabe, Heard, & Ballard, 2015, p.44). A tool that is used to identify CAS is a Strands 10 point checklist. (Shriberg, Potter, & Strand, 2012). This is a checklist that contains 10 segmental and suprasegmental structures. Authors say that this checklist doesn't lead to an exact assessment, but authors rely on it (Strand, McCauley, & Weigand, ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 6. Phonology Of Grammar And Syntax Grammar and syntax are in common because with syntax you are also using grammar. Knowing the parts of speech in grammar goes hand and hand with syntax. The parts of speech are: Nouns (person, place, thing, or idea), Verbs (action or being), Prepositions (time, place, or position), Adjectives (describes nouns and pronouns), Adverbs (describes verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs), Conjunctions (join words, phrases, or sentences), Interjections (express emotion or are fillers in sentences), and Pronouns (take the place of nouns) are very important in both syntax and grammar (Lunsford, 2013, pp.294–302). In the tree diagram, there are also functional categories and syntactic categories that are both grammar and syntax related. Phonetics and Phonology Analysis Phonetics is the study of speech sounds and everything can be measured in phonetics. "The science of phonetics attempts to describe all of the sounds used in all languages" (Fromkin, 2014, p.192). Articulatory, acoustic, and auditory are all part of speech sounds. Articulatory phonetics is the way that sounds of language are produced through the vocal tract. Acoustic phonetics is how sound waves of the sounds that we make, and auditory phonetics is the sound waves that are received when we hear sounds. Orthography is the way that words are spelled and not necessarily how they are pronounced. In orthography, there can be many words spelled different, but the sounds may sound the same. The sound of these letters can all ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 7. The Beneficial and Detrimental Effects of Phonology Essay For years, phonology has been incorporated into language education. Young children are introduced to phonics as educators take them through visual flash cards, teaching them the sounds of the alphabet. Children learn to connect sounds into words, using what they learned from the alphabet to apply a system of sounds into a word. Controversy regarding this reading education method has additionally been popular. Although researchers have found negative effects in learning to read phonologically, teachers can still strategically incorporate it into the classroom as long as they are aware of its potential negative effects. According to Bentin S. (1991), phonological awareness is "the ability to recognize the internal phonetic structure... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This is partially because the English language is sometimes difficult to phonetically learn since some rules do not apply and it becomes confusing for the learner and difficult for the educator. Although semantics appear to be a beneficial method, there are many scholars who argue otherwise. Dewhurst, S. and Robinson, C. (2004) discuss some of the negative effects among children whose education focuses more on semantics than phonetics. The study was conducted on 5,8, and 11–year old children and "children from each age group falsely recalled nonpresented items related to the study lists" (782). Although the study varied depending on the age group, it was clear that the focus of semantics has caused children to have "memory illusions" as they read (782). Many scholars argue that phonetics is the most effective way to teach reading skills because it makes the individual a better reader in the long run. Once a child can phonetically read, they have the capability to pick any book up and "sound out" its contents. Children who learn semantically are unable to do this because they learn to memorize certain words as they go. A positive element to learning semantically, however, is the child's ability to read quickly. Once a child has established a memorization and recognition to words, they are able to read very quickly. Children who learn phonetically are often slower since they are sometimes required to stop and "sound it out". However ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Second, it justifies the theoretical framework of the study with three primary sources: Simple View of Reading (Gough & Tunmer, 1986; Hoover & Gough, 1990), the National Reading Panel (NRP, 2000), and the Qualitative Similarity Hypothesis (QSH) (Paul, Wang, & Williams, 2013). Next, Visual Phonics is explained. Then this chapter introduces the purpose of the study and proposes three research questions. It also briefly discusses the research methodology for gathering data relevant to the questions. The last part of the chapter provides details about the key terms of the study. a.Reading Achievement of d/Dhh Students Reading is an essential skill for social life and academic success. Learning to read is a complex process. Some students learn to read effortlessly, but others find it difficult. Reading difficulties of d/Dhh students are well documented. Most students with severe to profound hearing loss graduate from a high school with approximately a fourth–grade reading level (Paul, 2009; Paul, Wang, & Williams, 2013; Traxler, 2000; Wurst, Jones, & Luckner, 2005). Fourth grade reading level is considered functionally illiterate because the literate reading level is a 5th or 6th grade (Paul, 1997), and the majority of students who graduate from a high school are functionally illiterate. ...

This is to indicate that the number of syllables is two as well. However, the sonority scale, like all the approaches outlined above, is of little help when it comes to delimiting separate syllables. Syllable structure Hierarchical Structure of the Syllable Most of modern phonological theories agree that the syllable has constituent or hierarchical rather than linear structure. The syllable (conventionally marked as small Greek sigma: σ) has two immediate constituents (it "branches" into two elements, to put it in another way) В– the Onset (O), which includes any consonants that precede the nuclear element (the vowel), and the Rhyme (R), which includes the nuclear element (the vowel) as well as any marginal elements (consonants) that might follow it. The Rhyme, in turn, branches into Peak (P), also known as Nucleus (N), and Coda (Co). The Peak (Nucleus), as the designation suggests, represents the "nuclear" or most sonorous ...

  • 10. Phonology : Phonology And Phonological Development Phonology and phonological development are important to language acquisition. In researching Hebrew phonology and its development; we learned how it is perceived, interpreted. The common theme across the articles was Hebrew language, like other languages, involves many levels of acquisition. In our research we observed different aspects of the language such as its stress patterns, acoustics, bilingual acquisition and its development along with learning how old Yiddish became Modern Hebrew; a language that borrows lexical terms and phrases. There is a link between all that we studied. Perceptions can be manipulated by prosody and intonation in one's voice and as a result, we interpret the acoustic signal and infer its message. Bilingual acquisition is related here as well. We receive acoustic cues that determine how we acquire language in that we record pitch, stress and intonation and link to memory how the word should be used. Lastly, as dominant as a language can be it can be changed or modified. Modern Hebrew is combined of Yiddish and, the ancient languages, Sephardic and Ashkenazi Hebrew. It also incorporates the languages and phrases from outside influences. Due to the assimilation of languages, the stress and pronunciation of words have changed the original lexical representations and phonological rules thereby creating a modern language. Hebrew language is fascinating and it is growing in the United States. It is ranked the 14th most common language with ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 11. Language Expquisition : The Study Of Language Acquisition Language acquisition is the study of how language is learned. There are two different ways to study language acquisition: by observing and describing. There is a clear difference in the way that adults and children speak. "Children do not perfect their native pronunciation for several years, but they establish crucial phonological patterns in the early months that serve them for life" (Herschensohn 29). Phonology is the study of the sound patterns that occur within languages. By studying phonology, you can pinpoint patterns within speech to understand the processes a child uses when speaking. For this project, we were given four different sound files of child named Lyra. In each file, the child was recorded in her normal home environment, each at a different age. We were required to translate her utterances into IPA and then identify the processes that she used in her speech. Next, we were to connect the work completed on the files with concepts we learned in class. This paper will attempt to demonstrate the sounds Lyra made in each file, the processes she used and why. Lyra's productive sound inventory is consistent with many children's inventory. She does not drastically change sounds, but just tends to tweak them. She does not appear to have much trouble with vowels, but consonants do seem to give her trouble. At one–year–old, she appears to have the most trouble with trills. She turns the trill [r] into the labial velar approximant [w]. She also changes velar ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 12. The Status Of Onset Of Somali Syllable Structure THE STATUS OF ONSET IN SOMALI SYLLABLE STRUCTURE: AN OPTIMALITY THEORETIC STUDY Abstract: The onset in Somali syllable structure provokes considerable argument among scholars who are interested in the syllable structure in this language. Owrin (1996) and Saeed (1999) agree that onset is mandatory in this language whereas Zetterholm and Tronnier (2012) state onsets are as optional as codas in this language. Therefore, this research is to investigate whether onsets in Somali syllable structure are mandatory or optional in light of Optimality Theory (OT), as a framework. This study primarily depends on data taken from extant literature including books, articles, and theses. Furthermore, 10 Somali native speakers were consulted about the fact of data. This study concludes that consonant epenthesis as well as resyllbification manifest the importance of onsets in Somali. Consonant epenthesis occurs initially when a monosyllable word begins with a vowel (onsetless syllable), e.g., /ГЁj/в†’ [К”ГЁj] 'dog'. Likewise, this type of epenthesis is found in the intervocalic position when syllables of the form CV are associated with vowel–initial suffixes, e.g. /ma–a:n/в†’ [ma.ЙЃa:n] 'not I'. The process of resyllabification in Somali is motivated by syllable types CVC and CVVC that are associated with vowel–initial suffixes, e.g. /na:ЙЎ–i/в†’[na:.ЙЎi] 'woman', /war.qad–u:/в†’ [war.qa.du:] formal letters'.

There are many indicators of identity by which we are made known individually, socially and culturally; the best of these would be language and how it has shown great flexibility in accommodating the needs of people. Through language people have been able to establish their identities and cultivate friendships with others who share the same common ground. By looking at accents such as Broad Australian English, slang and phonological features as they apply to Australian varieties, we can see how it has forged solidarity and assisted in creating an identity on an individual and national scale.

Identity is formed through the mutual trends of a group through slang and is used as identification for users who have these lexical features in common. The shortening of the lexeme whatever to "whatevz" or the reduplication and shortening of "crazy" to "cray cray" are words that have appealed to young Australian teenagers. Through use of diminutives, identity can be further formed as they are uniquely Australian, where lexemes are shortened to a syllable and the suffix of –ie, –y or –o is added like "smoko" for smoking, "devo" for devastated and "bottle–o" for a liquor store. The use of slang like this enhances our identity and care free nature that helps us understand phrases like "I'm devo that brekky at Maccas is done". This way slang builds certain characteristics that are known to Australians in the same way phonological features have. A recent phonological development in Australian English displays a difference between younger and older generations through the High Rising Terminal (HRT) which is a rising intonation contour on declarative clauses. The intonation pattern is considered a distinctive feature of Australian English and shows how speakers carry themselves as a person.

Phonetics and Phonology both are important for a language as phonetics represents the speech production system and the perception of human beings, sign language and phonology represents the sound system conveying its meaning. Every language has language system by which we can communicate and pronounce words in a good way. Linguistics is called as the "Scientific Study of Language". Linguistics utilizes scientific formulas and principles in language system. Linguistics has several branches. Phonetics and phonology are the two fundamental branches of them. Phonology often guided by phonetics. Phonology is also sometimes called as phonemics or phonematics. The main difference between phonetics and phonology is that phonetics concerned with physical properties of pronouncing sounds and phonology concerned with the organized structure of language though these two study the sound system.

Phonological Development Of Native Japanese Speakers Essay Abstract The current study looked at the phonological development of native Japanese speakers who speak English as a second language. Two subjects were given a word list of English words to read from and recorded. The recordings were then analyzed based on their divergence from English phonology. The recordings were also shown to native English speakers to rate the foreign accent of the subjects. The current study was conducted under the hypothesis that the speakers' L1 would interfere with the phonological development in their L2, and looked at other factors such as speakers' attitude and differences in natural ability. Keywords: Japanese, English, Second Language Acquisition, Phonological Development 1. Introduction Second language learners who begin to acquire a language later in life are often thought to have more trouble with learning to pronounce the sounds of their second language than learners who began second language acquisition early in life. In the Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis (CAH), the errors in pronunciation are the result of transfer from the speaker's native language (L1) to their second language (L2). However, other factors can account for the troubles second language learners encounter in their pronunciation. Factors such as the positive or negative attitude towards the target language as well as phonological memory can influence how well a learner acquires a language.

In my opinion, it is a subject everyone seems to be familiar with, yet not really aware of how and why we know the gist of it. Lingustics is the scientific study of human language and its structure, we study language because it teaches us how to communicate with others. Language is everywhere and part of our everyday lives, we use language to communicate with everyone around us. For many communication is vital as part of our jobs and for others it is a form of expression. Language is something that can make us feel good and happy, if someone compliments you, it makes you feel good, but it is also something that can be used to hurt and make people cry, it is a powerful tool humans have. Language whether it be verbal or not has meaning and we must know the basics in order to communicate effectively. In lingustics we learn about the different perspective of language and the different aspects that language is made up of, including phonetics, phonology morphology, and syntax. Morphology and morphemes are what we know as the sounds of language, morphology are what we know as words and synatx are the sentences that compose our language.

So there is not much difference in the structure of a language. If a person has good command over the mother tongue, there are more possibilities to adapt, assimilate and accommodate second language without putting up much pressure on the learners. There are some similarities in syntax, phonology, morpheme, word inflection and various other aspects of the language. In this context of learning the second language, introspective learning should be emphasized, language learning should be action oriented and engaging so that learners can practice more and more.

Our first thoughts come to us only in mother tongue whether we learn second language through syntax or we acquire it by living in that environment. At embryonic stage of learning, we think twice, first in the mother tongue and then in the other tongue. Gradually we do not take much time in thinking. As we start thinking in second language, thoughts come inadvertently. In fact in this process of imbibing the second language we internalize syntax, phonology, morpheme of second language with the help of our knowledge of the mother tongue. The focus of the paper will be on phonological aspect of mother tongue and second language, by drawing similarities between the two. The second part of the paper will focus on syntactical aspect in language learning. At places structures of the mother tongue and the second language are parallel. There is difference in structure but it can be solved out very easily if we focus on sentence pattern seriously but more on practice of sentences.

The depth of phonological phenomena has, in actuality, been in abstract existence since the first spoken language was developed as it is a natural component of all human language. In this paper I hope to produce a clear, concise analysis and discussion of the phonological growth of language study through perception and production while introducing the criticisms and problems associated with these theories. The history of phonological theory goes farther back than phonemics, but for the sake of space and time, I will start during the beginning of the 20th century and finish with a contrastive analysis of the present theories of phonology. The development of modern phonology theory began with the ideas presented by Ferdinand de Saussure, a Swiss linguist in the late 19th century. His book "Course in General Linguistics" provoked the switch from a diachronic to a synchronic phonological examination. Synchronic linguistics, the study of contemporary spoken languages, was developed by Jan Baudouin de Courtenay with the structuralist linguistic theory of Saussure. This analysis of phonology prompted the establishment of the Prague Circle. Two famous students from this circle, Roman Jakobson and Nikolai Trubetzkoy, went on to define the phoneme and create a popular analysis of language at the time called structuralism.

For this reason, spoken production can be improved if these elements are taught adequately. Nevertheless, a question may be aroused after this, what amount of vocabulary, grammar and phonology do instructors need to teach? Teaching speaking effectively goes in hand with DA and several language applications which focus on how oral speech needs to be delivered. Hence, vocabulary one of the three main elements is the one that deals with the lexicon of the language. Instructors need to teach words in context; as a consequence, the new lexis will be storage faster and it will be ready to be used either in spoken or written language (Scrivener 2011:200). Therefore, vocabulary plays an important role in the instruction of spoken language. Nonetheless, words can express more than one meaning and this can cause a couple of difficulties to students while they are learning such language. As part of this, if DA takes place in the classroom, it can be found easily that words may vary from meaning to meaning. In addition, DA and semantics also alter the way that speakers select words to be used. Finch (2003) defines semantics as the study of the meaning; thus, what words or utterances can be meant at the moment of using them.

Moreover, being literate is more than being able to read and write, rather it is the student's ability to apply the skills taught effectively on a job, in society, and to further their education. "Students with strong literacy skills have promising educational and career options, while most students with weak skills face a future of being undereducated and underemployed as they struggle with undeveloped personal goals and unfulfilling, low–paying jobs" [Hock & Deshler, 2003]. Consequently, the ensuing paper will compare literacy and language models used in a bilingual education program and will select models that would be useful in establishing a bilingual program. Comparing Literacy and Language Models "Literacy is defined as a social practice, meaning a form of activity through which we use text in culturally appropriate ways for specific purposes" [Kern, 2000]. On the other hand, Neilson (2014) argues that "the power of literacy lies not just in the ability to read and write, but rather in a person's capacity to apply these skills to effectively connect, interpret and discern the intricacies of the world in which they live" [Delvene, 2014, para. 1].

PHONOLOGY AND SYLLABLE The syllable and grammar for the second era are subject to be studied in commensuration with the phonology of the Arabic language in a multi–linguistic scenario of community. This is due to the fact that most of the communications at the regional level are oral by nature. Thus, the features of grammar and syllable cannot be ignored. It has been identified by Kahn (1976) that a mere hypothetical word "atkin" is not used and identified in English but without a syllable. The arrangements of the letters neither assumed later and former use of letters. But, there is a central place exists in few words; such as, "Caltex". Because of this, such types of words are not found easily in the English literature because of the placement and arrangements of the letters in the word. The next matter of consideration is the segmental phonology rules; assimilation, length, neutralization, affrication, use of consonant and vowels. These rules are considered in alignment with the syllables of the word. A Syllable can use the segmental phonology rules; thus, the element of pharyngealization is observed rather than the use of other rules and practices.

English language has that kind of rhythm called stressed–timed where stressed syllables occur in a sentence at fairly regular intervals of time even if there are many unstressed syllables between them. Vocal folds vibrate with different frequencies when we speak and the faster they vibrate the higher the pitch is. In English it does not make a big difference if you say words with low or high pitch they still remain the same meaning. Tone languages are those languages where the pitch changes the meaning of words e.g. some African, Asian and Native American languages. In Mandarin Chinese /ma / can mean, among other things, 'horse' and 'mother', depending on the tone. The rise and fall of the voice in speaking is called intonation. In English intonation helps the function and boundaries in syntactic unit and corresponds to punctuation in writing e.g. in He has gone has a falling intonation He has gone? Has a rising intonation.

Phonetics looks at the physical manifestation of language in sound waves: how thers sounds are articulated and perceived. It is the science of speech sounds and the symbols by thich they are shown in writing and printing. This science is based on a study of all the parts of the body concerned in making speech.

With its established methods and goals, it offers a wide spectrum of different views of nature and function of speech and speech communication THE BRANCHES OF PHONETICS Phonetics is the study of speech sounds. Although language is obviously composed of sound, speech sound came to be the main focus of linguistic investigation only in the 20th century. 19th century linguists were more interested in written rather than spoken language. Only with the work of Swiss linguist Ferdinand de Saussure in the early 20th century did linguists recognize the primacy of sound in human language and the secondary, superficial nature of writing. As a result phonetics has therefore evolved into three main branches of type: ACOUSTIC PHONETICS is the study of the physical properties of sounds, the air wave frequencies of which sounds consists. The frequency of vibrations measured in hertz; volume of sound measured in decibels. Instruments used to measure and records speech sounds include the sound spectrograph, which produces read outs called sound spectrograms. AUDITORY PHONETICS is also called perception phonetics because it is the study of how sounds are perceived and recognized by the human ear and brain. ARTICULATORY PHONETICS is the study of how sounds are produced by the vocal apparatus. The flow of sound during any given speech act can be divided into units of

In this paper, the history of each feature theory will be summarized and the main arguments of each theory outlined. Each theory will then be critiqued and evaluated with the end point establishing which among these feature theories would be most necessary to use in doing phonological analysis. II.

  • 32. Difference Between Phonology And Phonemic Awareness The terms phonological awareness and phonemic awareness are used interchangeably .Phonological awareness represents a range of manipulation and detection skills across different sizes of sound pieces. Phonemic awareness, however, specifically refers to the ability to manipulate and detect the smallest sound pieces in words (the phonemes). It refers to the ability to manipulate the phonemic structure of an utterance independently from its meaning. It is the awareness that words are composed of smaller units, that alliteration is when words begin with the same sound segment, and that rhyming is caused by words ending with the same sound segment. Therefore, it refers to the auditory task of identifying, distinguishing between, and working with an utterance at the level of larger units such as words, and syllables, or at the level of smaller units, such as phonemes. It also includes awareness of speech sounds at all levels including word, syllable, onset rime or phoneme. Phonemic awareness is an advanced stage of phonological awareness, defined as the ability to recognize that a spoken word consists of a sequence of phonemes. It is the capacity to isolate word segments, such as ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Phonemic awareness is an understanding of spoken language.

  • 33. What Are The Rules Of Phonology Rules of Phonology The easiest way to understand what the rules of phonology are for is that it translates phonemes to the real sounds, called allophones. Whatever we utter or produce using our vocal chords are allophones, which has physical entities to it. While, phonemes are what is received by the listener that has mental entities and are representative. The classes of phonemes that are bound to these rules are: voiced consonants, rounded vowels, nasals, sibilants and etc. The existence of variations in every language makes the phonological rules important to maintain recognizable words. Therefore, the rules of phonology are used to show the patterns of distribution of sounds in a particular language which might vary in different languages. In the rules of phonology, there are several feature–changing rules that change the value of a certain component feature of a sound. For example, the feature of a sound could change from non– nasal to nasal or from short to long. Presumably, different languages have different rules, but some are very common in every language. Among these feature–changing rules are assimilation rules. Assimilation can be defined ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Among them is the voicing assimilation, which can be defined as the originally voiceless sound picked up the feature voiced from another sound. For example, the word "roses" is pronounced as [rЙ™КЉzЙ™z] that shows the voiceless / s/ picked up the voiced feature of / z/. Next, there is a devoicing feature changes in assimilation. On the contrary of voicing, the voiced sound picked up the voiceless feature of another sound which reportedly common when speakers pronounced the phrase "have to". Originally in English, the "have" ends with the voiced phoneme / v/, [hГ¦Лђv t НЄ uЛђ] and the word "to" begins with the voiceless / t/.

Vowels specifically seemed to be the strongest being the most stressed when pronounced among children in normal conversation. Vowels are made with an unobstructed vocal tract and I found that these speech sounds where the easiest to produce for the children. I also observed a child trying to pronounce the world yellow but still having trouble making the /y/ and it sound coming of as more of we–llow. Protowords are words children make up on their own and was one of the few things I thought I would observe. Unfortunately I was unable to find one protoword that was clearly not a word commonly used. I found this interesting as maybe they no longer used protowords but I decided against that idea by correlating it to the short amount of time and was unable to catch a glimpse of a child using a protoword. The concept of cluster reduction in which a syllable is unstressed and at time forgotten was also another aspect I felt would have been every common to occur but was not able to observe a word. What was observed was the use of the word "that" substituted with the consonant /d/ to make the sound like "dat".

  • 35. Primary Study Summary Primary Study Summary Introduction & Hypothesis Previous to Cao, Brennan, & Booth (2015), various studies have examined the relationship between acquisition of reading skills and neuronal activation. Despite the extensive evidence that there are dynamic changes in systems where adaptation takes place, it is still unknown to what extent the acquisition of fundamentally different languages results in differing brain networks. The current study proposes the hypothesis that learning to read leads to a growing divergence between different orthographies with increased experience. The legitimacy of the hypothesis is supported by the fact that alphabetic orthographies (i.e. English) use highly frequent mapping between letters (graphemes) and sounds ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... (2015), the focus of the research expands on previous findings that there is a modulatory role of primary language in learning to read a secondary language. The phonological aspect is of particular concern as the researchers distinguish between addressed and assembled phonologies. Known as the dual–route model of word learning, assembled phonology (i.e. grapheme–to–phoneme mapping) is typically utilized to read unfamiliar words whereas addressed phonology makes use of the relationship between the visual appearance of words and their sounds, and is consequently employed for familiar word reading. Due to the differences in orthography between English and Chinese, it is unsurprising that alphabetic languages emphasize assembled phonology while logographic languages, without letter–phoneme mappings, rely on addressed phonology. As found in Cao, Brennan, & Booth (2015), existing research indicates that cognitive and neural mechanisms can be shaped by native language. In Mei et al. (2015), the assimilation–accomodation hypothesis essentially posits that these influentially developed neural mechanisms will inevitably affect the processing of a second language. The present study adopted a Korean artificial language training paradigm in order to examine the potential differences hypothesized to exist between native English speakers and native Chinese speakers. The recruits consisted of 42 native Chinese speakers and 43 native English speakers, neither of which had prior experience with the Korean language. Within both samples, participants were divided in terms of the type of training (i.e. addressed phonology vs assembled phonology). A total of 120 artificial language words were used. They were divided into two groups of stimuli in which some were trained words and others were not trained words (in order to detect the transfer of learning).

  • 36. The Relationship Between Phonology And Morphology 3.The relationship between Phonology and Morphology. The relation between the distribution of phonemes and grammatical units such as morphemes and words is therefore an aspect of the interface between Phonology and morphology. Both Phonology and Morphology study various patterns in languages all over the world. Considering the similarities of these fields, both are engaged in the scientific analysis of languages. Both are sub branches of Linguistics and without studying Phonology, one cannot move on to Morphology. There is an inter–relationship between these subjects. For differences, we can identify that Phonology mainly concentrates on sound systems of a language while Morphology pays attention to the word and the morphemes of a language. (Booij, 2007) Then, in general, the interaction between phonology and morphology can be illustrated into at least four points: 1–Phonological rules may precede the morphological rules. Therefore, phonemes are considered to be the basic units of speech sound by which morphemes are represented.

Its pronunciation varies between [s], [z], and [ЙЄz], as in maps, games, and glasses respectively. A purely phonological realization would most likely assign to these three ending phonemic representations /s/, /z/ or /ЙЄz/. On a morphophonological level, however, they may all be considered forms of the underlying object //z//, which is a morphophoneme. The different forms it takes depend on the segment at the end of the morpheme to which it attaches: the dependencies are described by morphophonological rules.

  • 37. Phonology 1 Introduction:
 Phonology is the study of how sounds function within a given language. The study of English phonology for our purposes can be divided into two broad approaches: segmental and suprasegmental. 
Segmental phonology is a bottom up view of phonology which deals with the individual sounds which make a difference to meaning. These are called phonemes and their effect can be seen clearly in the following example: * Red (colour). * Read (past tense of the verb to read). * Read (present tense of the verb to read). 
 The pronunciation of 1 and 2 is the same; they are homophones. The spelling of 2 and 3 is the same; they are homographs. All three examples are made of 3 distinct phonemes /r/...

The schwa is the most common phoneme in English. Essentially it is the default unstressed or weak vowel sound. In British English, the schwa can be found at the end of all words ending "er" (e.g., father, mother); note that we do not pronounce 4 To illustrate the schwa, imagine your mouth as a car gear box. The schwa is the sound where neutral would be in a gear box. ∂ The schwa also occurs in the middle and at the beginning of words and holds the key to many of our students' listening problems. Task 3: What difficulties can the schwa (or other weak sounds) cause in your teaching context? How do you deal with these difficulties? Stress–timing and syllable–timing English is said to be a stress–timed language. This means that the timing between stressed words is regular. Crucially, however, the number of syllable between stresses is not regular (like in Italian – which is syllable timed).

It can be viewed as unchanging and conventional, or regarded as dynamic and changing. Language and literacy can be analysed and examined, broken down to reveal how it is made up of all its intricate parts that form language. The impact of language in different perspectives, affect people in their daily lives, either in a good or bad context. Language has developed over time, and we now live in a digital world. This has affected people in a social and business life, diversifying how language is communicated. Language has many functions and roles. In the past, theorists have debated how language is developed, be it behavioural, cognitive or linguistic. Language is a form of communication that it is a complex and a unique human quality that is diversified throughout the world. From the illustration of "Language is very like a fish?" (Grugeon and Gardner 2000, p105) it explores the concept of language being likened to a fish.

The process of reading development has different levels of phonological awareness within words: syllables, onsets and rimes, and sounds. Good readers look for familiar "letter patterns" as one strategy when attempting to decode or spell unfamiliar words–they use familiar sound chunks from known words, not just individual sounds (Bradley, & Bryant, 1983; Lenel & Cantor, 1981). Thomas Gunning 1974 reported that students look for "pronounceable word parts" .This "chunking / grouping" of sounds makes the reading and writing process much more effective and efficient. This letter pattern learning is based on familiar syllable or rhyme patterns as well as sound clusters and individual sounds. This ability helps child to find out inside words for syllables, rhymes, and individual sounds. Child has to segment, blend, and manipulate syllables, onset and rime, and sounds of a particular word; this ability makes the child successful in using letter–sound knowledge effectively for reading and writing (Bradley, & Bryant, 1983; Lenel & Cantor, 1981; Maclean, Bryant, & Bradley, 1987). The phonological awareness skills of segmenting and blending are the most highly correlated with beginning reading acquisition (Snow 192). Students who may be at risk for reading difficulty often have poorer levels of phonological awareness than others (Stanovitch Cunningham, & Cramer, 1984). Although related, phonemic awareness is different from auditory discrimination, phonetics, and phonics.

  • 42. Analysis Of The Basque-American Indian Pidgin The Basque–American Indian pidgin found in the north–eastern part of North America was first documented in the early seventeenth century. Although it is believed to have first been used in the sixteenth century, this was the first time that there was recorded documentation of someone experiencing the pidgin. The pidgin was created between the Basque people of Spain and France and the American Indian people of North America. The pidgin is believed to be composed from a lot of Basque words and influence and the different languages the native people spoke. The native people spoke variations of the Algonquian language, and their influence is also seen in the pidgin. The pidgin was mostly spoken between the Basque people and the native people, although the native people also used it when speaking to visiting Frenchmen. The Basque people were mostly seafarers and sheepherders, while the native people were mostly hunters and farmers. When these the two groups met it was usually to conduct trade of some sort. The Basque–American Indian pidgin was a pidgin used to help the Basque people and the native people to communicate. Before going into the linguistic portion of the analysis, we need to talk about the pidgin itself and how it came to be. That is; what the superstrate and the substrate of the pidgin are.
