Important Things to Remember

A
  1. Common Trend: Voiceless things become voiced between vowels.
  2. Always make rules for allophones, not phonemes
  3. The Schwa is always in an unaccented syllable while the caret is always accented
  4. The ‘flap’ usually happens between a stressed and an unstressed syllable. It’s not a real sound, but an allophone
  5. Brackets [] are used for phonemic representation, for the surface, while slashes // are used to describe the underlying stuff.
  6. A vowel becomes nasal when it comes before ‘n’
  7. Natural classes: [n m ŋ] and [p, t, k, b, d, g]
76
Q

Phoneme

A

The smallest unit in the sound system of a language. It is used to distinguish between meanings of words. They can be pronounced in one or more ways, depending on the number of allophones.

A phoneme is manifested as one of more phones in different environments. These phones are called allophones.

77
Q

Minimal Pair

A

Two words that differ in only one sound

lip

rip

78
Q

Allophone

A

Phonetic variant of a phoneme in a particular language

[p] and [pH] are allophones of the phoneme /p/

a flap is not a real sound, but an allophone.

79
Q

Phones

A

Phonetic sounds that always sound the same. It’s the smallest identifyiable unit that can be transcribed with an IPA symbol.

80
Q

Phonetics

A

Analyzes the production of all human speech sounds, regardless of language.

81
Q

Phonology

A

The study of how sounds are organized and used in natural languages.

Basis for further work in morphology, syntax, discourse, etc

Analyzes the sound patterns of a particular language by determining which phonetic sounds are significant and explaining how these sounds are interpreted by the native speaker.
