30
Q

intonation

A

changes in pitch contours

31
Q

Stress

A

gives prominence to certain syllables within a sequence of syllables, a segment that works at the level of syllables..

32
Q

Rate of speech

A

the numbers of words, syllables, or phonemes produced per second are the alternate measures

33
Q

Consonants

A

are phonemes produced by some narrowing or closing of the vocal tract

34
Q

consonant clusters

A

consonants produced in side-by-side combination

35
Q

pre-vocalic

A

consonants before vowel

36
Q

post-vocalic

A

consonants after vowel

37
Q

Vowels

A

sounds produced with a relatively open vocal tract configuration

38
Q

Monophthongs

A

single sounding vowels

39
Q

Diphthongs

A

double sounding vowels, made by the quick gliding of two simple vowels, so that they cannot be separated
ex: toy

40
Q

open syllable

A

when the syllable ends in a vowel

41
Q

closed syllable

A

when the syllable ends with a consonant

42
Q

Onset

A

the consonant or consonant cluster that the word starts with

43
Q

Nucleus

A

the vowel or diphthong that follows the initial consonant or cluster, middle of word

44
Q

Rhyme

A

the part that splits the nucleus and the coda

45
Q

Coda

A

the consonant or cluster that follows the nucleus

46
Q

Manner of production

A

indicates how the airstream that passes through the vocal tract is modified to form a consonant

47
Q

Place of articulation

A

indicates where along the vocal tract a constriction is formed to produce the consonant.

48
Q

Voice

A

indicates whether the vocal folds are vibrating during the consonants production

49
Q

What are the 6 Manners of Articulation?

A

stops, fricatives, affricates, nasals, glides, liquids

50
Q

plosives

A

an audible burst of noise or explosion of air upon its release

51
Q

What are the 7 Places of Articulation?

A

bilabial, labiodental, linguadental (interdental), alveolar, palatal, velar, glottal

52
Q

Binary

A

a system by which a phoneme is given a plus (+) value if a feature is present and a (-) value is a feature is not

53
Q

what are the 16 sets of binary features?

A
  1. Vocalic
  2. Consonantal
  3. High
  4. Back
  5. Low
  6. Anterior
  7. Coronal
  8. Round
  9. Tense
  10. Continuant
  11. Nasal
  12. Strident
  13. Sonorant
  14. Interrupted
  15. Lateral
  16. Voice
54
Q

Obstruents

A

consonants that are made with a complete closure or narrow constriction of the oral cavity, so that the airstream is stopped or friction noise is produced

55
Q

Sibilants

A

high-frequency sounds that have a more strident quality and longer duration than most other consonants. sibilants include the fricatives and affricates.

56
Q

Approximants

A

the approximating nature of the contact between the the two articulators. sometimes glides and liquids

57
Q

Rhotic

A

a sound with /r/ coloring

58
Q

Syllabics

A

sounds that serve as a nucleus for a syllable, all vowels

this includes nasals and liquids

59
Q

what are the 4 ways that vowel articulation is described?

A

1) the position of the tongue
2) the shape of the pharynx
3) the shape of the lips

they must be clinically significant
