j - d3
approximants
includes liquids and glides
-similar to vowels but they appear in syllables as either onsets or codas
glides
approximant consonants produced with a gliding motion of the articulators - they are always onsets 0 prevocalic
liquids
approximant consonants produced with a stable articulatory setting
voiced labiovelar glide

acoustics
the study of physical properties of sound
time
in acoustics, time refers to the duration of a sound
frequency
of cycles of a wave completed in one second
pitch
our perception of the fundamental frequency of speech; quality of human speech
intensity
amplitude (loudness) of a sound
waveform
graphical representation of sound in which intensity appears on the y-axis and time appears on this x-axis
sine wave (simple tone)
have one frequency
complex tone (waveform)
has more than one frequency; combo of simpler waves
spectrum
graphical representation of sound in which intensity appears on the y-axis and frequency is on the x-axis
larynx produced the source sound for speech
true
properties of source spectrum
harmonics
fundamental frequency
harmonics
component of frequency in a complex sound
fundamental frequency
the first harmonic
formants
peaks in the spectrum - across multiple harmonics - where intensity for a particular frequency is greater than for surrounding frequencies
fundamental frequency
base frequency or pitch of a person’s voice
vowel acoustics:
waveforms and spectra
low vowels have a _____ F1
high
back vowels have a ____ F2
low
consonant acoustics
VOT and voicing
voice-onset time (VOT)
the time from the burst onset to the start of voicing in the following vowel
burst
the acoustic energy created by the release of the stop
voiced stops have short VOT, voiceless stops have long VOT
VOT signals the voicing features of stop
how do you tell the difference between pear and bear?
voice onset time!
voice bar
-is the fundamental frequency in a spectogram
-the vocal chords are moing weven when your mouth is closed
what is the difference between ape and abe?
the voice bar in abe
formant transition
changes to the trajectory of a formant caused by the place of articulation of an adjacent consonant
what acoustic cue helps us hear the difference between abe and aid?
formant transitions
formant transitions indicate place of artic. for
initial, medial, and final stops
fricatives
broadband noise resulting from the turbulence from a constriction in the vocal tract
/s/ has
the most noise high up on the spectrum
sh has
a lower noise than s
/f/ and voiceless th look similar and this is why
kids sometimes pronounce one for the other
voiceless fricatives
have a greater energy due to turbulence
voiced fricatives
have energy from voicing (vertical striations) and a voice bar but less noise from turbulence
sibilant fricatives
-alveolar and palatal fricatives
-have greater intensity than other fricatives, including more well-defined spectral shapes
/s, sh, z, and vision/
non-sibilant fricatives
have less intensity than other fricatives
diffuse noise across from a larger number of frequecies
/f, v, voiced and voiceless th, h/
affricates

nasal fromants are typically very low
glides
