CSD Quiz 2 Flashcards
Define articulation and phonology
Articulation is the production of speech sounds. Phonology is the study of the speech sound systems.
Give an example of articulation.
Rapid coordinated movement of tongue. teeth, lips. and palate to produce speech sounds.
Give an example of phonology.
Cognitive and theoretical concepts of the nature, production, and rules for producing and combining speech sounds in language
What are phonemes? Give examples.
Actual speech sounds of language. Letters K and C can both be represented by the phoneme /k/.
Are phonemes the same as the letters of an alphabet? Explain using examples.
No because letters K and C can both be represented by the same phoneme /k/. There can also be less syllables than letters in a word.
Do phonemes differ from one language to another? Why might this be so?
Yes because each language has their own speech sounds due to their own rules for producing and combining speech sounds.
What is phonotactics? Are phonotactics universal? Explain using examples.
Yes, not all languages have the same phonotactic rules. For example, ‘st’ is acceptable in English but ‘zk’ is not. Languages may have different manners of articulation making some sounds easier to produce than others.
How are phonemes generally categorized?
Vowels or consonants
Describe how the production of consonants is different from production of vowels?
Consonants require a more constricted vowel tract. Vowels are made with an unrestricted tract.
Which are the three ways to classify consonants?
Place, Manner, Voicing (PMV)
Which are the three ways to classify consonants?

Explain the places of articulation of speech sounds using examples.
Bilabial (/m/, /p/, /b/)
Labiodental (/f/, /v/)
Linguodental (/o/ as in then, /o/ as in thin)
Lingua-alveolar (/s/, /n/)
Lingua- palatal (/j/, /r/)
Lingua- velar (/k/, /g/)
Glottal (/h/)
Explain the manners of production of speech sounds using examples.
Stop (/p/, /t/, /b/)
Fricative (/f/, /s/)
Affricates (/dz/ as in jump, /ts/ as in chair
Nasal (/m/, /n/)
Glide (/w/, /j/)
Liquid (/l/, /r/)
What does voicing refer to?
Voicing refers to whether or not there is laryngeal vibration.
Voiced /b/, /m/, /w/, /z/
Voiceless /p/, /t/, /s/
Define and differentiate functional from organic disorders.
