Phonetics
This document discusses phonetics and the sounds of the English language. It covers the organs of speech, vowels, consonants, and classifications of sounds. The main points are:
1. Phonetics is the study of pronunciation and vocal sounds. The tongue, lips, vocal cords, palate, windpipe, and teeth are the main organs of speech.
2. There are 20 vowels in English, including 12 pure vowels and 8 diphthongs. Vowels can be short or long. Pure vowels have a steady point of articulation, while diphthongs change points of articulation.
3. There are 24 consonants in English, including plosives, fric
Phoneme
Phonology is the study of how sounds are organized and used in a language to convey meaning. A phoneme is the smallest unit of sound in a language that can distinguish meaning. English has 24 consonant and 20 vowel phonemes. Phonemes are language specific and each language selects a set of sounds to form patterns. Allophones are different phonetic realizations of the same phoneme that do not change meaning, such as the aspirated and unaspirated versions of /p/, /t/, and /k/ in English. A minimal pair is a pair of words that differ in only one phoneme.
English Vowels sounds
Vowels are sounds produced with an open vocal tract, while consonants restrict or stop airflow. In English phonology, vowels are classified based on five factors: tongue position (front, central, back), height (high, mid, low), lip shape (rounded, spread, neutral), closeness (close, half-close, half-open, open), and length (long/tense, short/lax). Syllables can be open, ending in a vowel, or closed, ending in a consonant. Long vowels can occur in both open and closed syllables, while short vowels only occur in closed syllables.

Consonants 2
This document discusses phonetic symbols and their use in describing speech sounds. It covers the main places and manners of articulation used to produce consonants and vowels. Key points include:
- Phonetic symbols use a three-part label describing voicing, place, and manner of articulation.
- Places of articulation include bilabial, dental, alveolar, palatal, velar produced with different articulators like the lips, teeth and tongue.
- Manners include stops, nasals, fricatives, affricates, approximants, and trills which are distinguished by how the vocal tract is narrowed or blocked.
- Major classes are obstruents like
Workshop v
The document provides an overview of a workshop on phonetic symbols and pronunciation. It discusses the debate around the importance of teaching pronunciation in language learning.

Human Voice Choral Singing
Unison singing is the most valuable resource available to choral conductors and the most neglected, partly because conductors want to have the mass sound produced by mixed singing groups. The full chorus unison produces a very strong sound, flexible and adapts itself to almost any type of music.
Phonetic and Phonology
1/The word “ Phone” means sound and “tics” means scientific or systematic study of something. So we can say that Phonetics means scientific or systematic study of human speech sounds.
Phonetics is general study of all human speech sounds and how they are produced, transmitted and received.
2/Phonology is the study of the sound system of particulars human languages, include dialects and other language varieties.
Phonology In English
Phonology is the study of sound systems of language. It examines the patterns of sounds and how phonemes and their allophones form these patterns. The document provides an introduction to phonology including defining key terms like phone, phoneme, and allophone. It also outlines some major units of phonological analysis like segments, syllables, and features. The conclusion states that phonologists make explicit statements about sound patterns in languages to understand the principles underlying how sounds are patterned.
English Consonants
This document defines consonants and describes their classification in English phonology. It defines consonants as speech sounds involving stricture or closure in the vocal tract. Consonants are classified based on four features: 1) whether the vocal cords vibrate (voiced vs voiceless), 2) whether the velum is lowered (nasal) or raised (oral), 3) place of articulation where stricture occurs, and 4) manner of articulation regarding amount of stricture and air flow. It provides charts of the place and manner of articulation for English consonant phonemes such as plosives, nasals, fricatives, affricates, laterals and glides.

Vietnamese pronunciation 01
This document provides a pronunciation guide for elementary Vietnamese. It introduces the three main vowels - a, i, u - and eight initial consonants. It also describes the two tone patterns in Vietnamese - mid-level and low-falling. Examples are given to illustrate the pronunciation of each vowel and consonant in relation to similar English sounds. Drills with syllable combinations are included for practice.
English vowel , monothongs, diphthong, triphthongs
The document discusses English vowel sounds, including monophthongs, diphthongs, and triphthongs. It provides:
- A list of 12 monophthongs (pure vowel sounds) in English, describing their place and manner of articulation.
- A list of 8 diphthongs (a combination of two vowel sounds within one syllable), categorizing them as centering or closing based on their movement in the vocal tract.
- A definition of triphthongs as a combination of three monophthongs within one syllable, giving 5 examples using closing diphthongs followed by a schwa.
Diagrams are provided to illustrate the articulation of monoph
Consonants
This document discusses the classification and description of consonants in English. It explains that consonants are speech sounds produced with partial or complete closure of the vocal tract, dividing consonants into categories based on their articulation, manner of articulation, and place of articulation. The document lists the 24 consonant sounds in English, categorizing them as oral or nasal sounds, and also discusses the three approximant/semi-vowel sounds of /w/, /r/, and /j/, which are phonetically vowels but function phonologically as consonants.
English Diphthong
This document discusses diphthongs in English phonology. It defines a diphthong as a single sound produced from two vowels in sequence, with one vowel being dominant. Diphthongs are represented by two letters, with the first showing the starting point and second the direction of movement from one vowel position to another. There are two types of diphthongs: closing diphthongs where the position moves to close vowels, and centering diphthongs where the position moves to center vowels. The first vowel is longer in duration and receives more stress.
English pronunciation Tips
This document provides tips for improving pronunciation in English. It recommends understanding the sounds of English using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), which shows the 43 sounds in English. It also discusses syllables and stress, noting that only content words like nouns and verbs are stressed on the first syllable, while functional words are unstressed. Developing an accent involves harnessing English sounds by listening daily to BBC radio, songs, recording oneself speaking, and using apps and online resources.
Vowel Label
This document discusses vowels and how they are produced in speech. It explains that vowels involve an unobstructed airflow from the lungs, and that languages vary in the number of vowels they have in their systems. It also describes how vowels are classified based on three factors: height or tongue position in the mouth, frontness or backness of tongue position, and lip rounding. Finally, it maps out the vowel space of English and labels the standard vowels according to these classification factors.
An Introduction to the IPA
The document discusses the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and its use for representing the sounds of the English language. It explains that the IPA uses symbols to represent each sound and that English words are not always pronounced as they appear since pronunciation is represented by IPA symbols. It provides examples of IPA symbols for vowels, consonants, and stressed and unstressed syllables. It encourages learners of English to use online dictionaries that include IPA transcriptions to learn the pronunciation of new words.
introduction to Linguistics" phonetics; manners of articulation and places of...
This document discusses the places and manners of articulation for consonant sounds in human speech. There are seven places of articulation - bilabial, labiodental, dental, alveolar, palatal, velar, and glottal. The manners of articulation include stops, fricatives, affricates, nasals, liquids, glides, and glottal stops/flaps. The presentation provides examples of each manner and explains how sounds are produced using the various articulators in the mouth. The goal is to help distinguish how each consonant sound is made based on its place and manner of articulation.
Vowels
This document discusses the production of vowels. It describes how vowels are classified based on the position of the tongue in terms of height and shape in the mouth, as well as the position of the lips. Cardinal vowels provide a standard reference for classifying vowels based on tongue height and position. English vowels can then be described based on these tongue and lip positions.
7tips for your best voice
The document provides 7 tips for improving one's voice: 1) Drink at least 2-3 liters of water per day to stay hydrated; 2) Stand up straight to improve posture; 3) Relax tense muscles in the throat, jaw, and tongue; 4) Yawn and sigh to increase oxygen intake and relaxation; 5) Breathe out while speaking for slower, clearer speech; 6) Hum to warm up breath and articulators; 7) Smile while speaking to relax tension and connect with audiences.
English pronunciation

Rhythm and intonation in connected speech.
Connected speech refers to how words are pronounced in normal conversation compared to in isolation. In connected speech, sounds may be deleted, words run together, and stress is placed differently. There are three main patterns of intonation in English - falling, rising, and fall-rising tones. Falling tone is used for statements, commands, and wh-questions. Rising tone invites the speaker to continue and is used for yes/no questions and question tags seeking confirmation. Fall-rising tone shows hesitation, reluctance, or politeness with an uncertain answer. Intonation and stress work together to convey meaning and emotion in speech.

This document discusses the importance of teaching language through music and rhythm. It explains that every language has its own musical qualities like rhythm and intonation. Using chants and songs can help children learn the music of English. Reasons for using music include making language memorable, presenting it in an enjoyable way, and integrating different learning styles. Specific chants are provided as examples to help with pronunciation, listening skills, vocabulary, and motivating students.
Articulation
The document provides information about articulation and speech sounds. It discusses the importance of clear articulation and natural speech. It also covers the classification of consonant and vowel sounds, including their place and method of articulation. The document encourages exercises to improve articulation and recommends studying phonetic symbols to distinguish speech sounds.
Phonetics consonants and vowels 2011
Phonology refers to how sounds work together when pronounced in a language. Some key aspects of phonology include:
1) Phonemes are the smallest units of sound, often represented with slashes like /t/, while phones are the actual pronunciation of those sounds in context.
2) Minimal pairs are two words that differ by one phoneme, helping to identify sounds. Minimal sets contain multiple words that vary by one phoneme.
3) Phonotactics is how the mind recognizes permissible sound combinations in a language.
Pragmatic intonation
This document provides an overview of intonation patterns in language. It begins with definitions of intonation as the variation in pitch when speaking and discusses its importance in communication. Key components of intonation like pitch, stress, and rhythm are explained. There are two basic intonation patterns - falling and rising. Falling intonation conveys certainty while rising intonation implies uncertainty. Intonation serves grammatical, accentual, discourse, attitudinal, and sociolinguistic functions. Examples are given to demonstrate how intonation impacts meaning. The document concludes that teaching intonation is important to avoid misunderstandings in conversation.
Phonetics
The document discusses phonetics and introduces some key concepts:
1. Phonetics is the study of speech sounds, how they are produced and their physical properties, while phonology examines the sound systems of languages.
2. Learning phonetics improves pronunciation and facilitates learning new words by understanding how sounds are produced.
3. The vocal tract has various articulation points that allow for different phonemes or speech sounds. Phonemes are the smallest units of sound that make a meaningful difference.
4. Sounds are classified based on their manner of articulation, place of production in the vocal tract, and whether they are voiced or unvoiced. Consonants and vowels are the main types

Prosodic phonology ms ferrer
This document discusses prosodic phonology and its key components. It covers syllable structure, word stress, sentence and phrase stress, and intonation. Syllable structure is examined in terms of onset, nucleus, and coda. Word stress patterns are described for monosyllabic, bisyllabic, and multisyllabic words. Sentence stress focuses on content and structure words. Intonation conveys meaning through pitch, rhythm, and sentence stress and serves attitudinal, accentual, grammatical, and discourse functions.
PORTFOLIO
This document outlines a linguistic biography template for students to document their experiences with different languages. It includes sections for students to write the languages they know or are learning and associate each with a color. Other sections allow students to describe what words and expressions they know in each language, why they know those languages, activities done in other languages, what they have learned in each language regarding listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities.
Strategies and Assessment Tools
The document contains rubrics for assessing various skills in English including listening, oral reading, speaking, poetry writing, and restating viewed texts/visuals. Each rubric includes 4-5 levels for rating performance from beginning to advanced levels. For example, the listening rubric has levels for inferring speakers' moods from tone, inferring implicit messages, and altering inferences as more information is provided.
