phonology Flashcards
what are the 3 branches of phonetics
- articulatory: deals with production, categorization, and classification
- acoustic: deals with transmission with focus on frequency, intensity, and duration
- auditory : deals with perception
what are the types of assimilation
- progressive: left to right
- regressive: right to left
- total: 2 segments become identical
- partial: changes in one or more phonetic features (close but not identical: handkerchief-hangkerchief
- contact:directly adjacent sounds jumping-jumbing
- remote: sounds are separated: yellow-lello
what phononological errors should be targeted first
- omissions and additions
- structure changes: syllable deletion, initial or final consonant deletion, cluster reduction, epenthesis, syllable addition
what is the difference between an artic disorder and phonological disorder
artic
1. consistent error made same way
2. only a few sounds incorrect
3. substitutions, omissions, additions, distortions
phonologicall
1. disordered patterns such as backing, fronting etc
what is a vertical strategy
work on one target sound at a time until mastered
what is a horizontal strategy
multiple sound approach. Work on several sounds at same time
what is the multiple oppositions approach
when child is presented with several sounds simultaneously that address the collapse of several phonemes into one phoneme.
child uses one sound for several ( /t/ for /k/, /g/, /s/ etc)
what is the metaphon approach
aims to increase metalinguistic awareness to improve phonology
2. similar to minimal pairs (highlights difference)
what is the core vocabulary approach
- child and parent select 50 functional words
- drilled in twice weekly sessions
- teach sound by sound, breaking into syllables
what is linear phonology
- emphasizes linear sequential arrangement of sounds
- each segment has a distinctive feature
- rules apply only to segmental level not suprasegmental
what is nonlinear phonology
sound segments are governed by suprasegmentals
syllables have priority
