Speech production
Voiced Sounds Unvoiced Sounds
It is when your vocal
chords are vibrating,
producing a sound.
It is when there is no
vocal chords vibration.
They are apart.
The vocal tract
Note that the air passages
that make up the vocal
tract may be divided into
the oral tract, within the
mouth and pharynx, and
the nasal tract, within the
nose.
Upper and
lower lips
Upper teeth
Lower teeth
Alveolar ridge
Hard palate
Soft palate (velum)
Uvula

Place of articulation
(consonants)
Labial
articulation
Coronal
articulation
Dorsal
articulation
It is called those speech
gestures using the lips.
It is called those speech
gestures using the tip or
blade of the tongue.
It is called those speech
gestures using the back
of the tongue.
Bilabial
(Made with the two lips.) in sounds such as pie, buy,
my.
Labiodental
(Lower lip and upper front teeth.) in sounds such as
for and vacations.
Labial articulation
Coronal articulation
Dental
(Tongue tip or blade and upper front teeth.) in sounds
such as thigh and those.
Alveolar
(Tongue tip or blade and the alveolar ridge.) in sounds
such as tie, die, night, sight, zeal, lie.
Retroflex
(Tongue tip and the back of the alveolar ridge.) in
sounds such as ire, hour, air.
Palatal
(Front of the tongue and hard palate.) in sounds such
as you, yet.
Note: This kind of sound is sometimes classified as
coronal articulations and sometimes as dorsal
articulations.
Dorsal articulation
Velar
(Back of the tongue and soft palate.) in sounds
such as those that occur at the end of hack,
hag, hang.
Manner of articulation
Stop
(Complete closure of the articulators involved so that
the airstream cannot escape through the mouth.)
There are two possible types of stop:
Oral stop
The soft palate is raised so that the nasal tract is blocked
off, then the airstream will be completely obstructed.
Pressure in the mouth will build up and an oral stop will be
formed. This sound are called plosives. This kind of sound
occurs in the consonants in the words pie, buy, tie, dye,
key, guy.
Nasal stop
If the air is stopped in the oral cavity but the soft palate
is down so that air can go out through the nose, the
sound produced is a nasal stop. Sounds of this kind
occur at the beginning of the words my and night, and
at the end of the word sang.
Fricative
(Close approximation of two articulators so that
the airstream is partially obstructed and
turbulent airflow is produced.) The consonants in
for, thigh, thy, sigh, zoo, and shy are examples of
fricative sounds.
Approximant
(A gesture in which one articulator is close to
another, but without the vocal tract being
narrowed to such an extent that a turbulent
airstream is produced.)in sounds such as young,
we.
Lateral (Approximant)
(Obstruction of the airstream at a point along the
center of the oral tract, with incomplete closure
between one or both sides of the tongue and the
roof of the mouth.) Like in the word lie
Affricative
(Close approximation of two articulators so that
the airstream is partially obstructed and
escapes with slight friction through the mouth) It
is in sounds such as chair, church, just.
Closure
Thank you
