Phonetics Chapter 1
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Phonetics | Study of speech sounds, articulations, acoustic properties, and perception. |
| Phoneticians | People who study speech sounds |
| Applied phonetics | Practical application of phonetic knowledge |
| Normative phonetics | Established the norms for acceptable speech |
| Clinical phonetics | Phonetic information is used to remediate unintelligble or disordered speech |
| Linguistic phonetics (Phonology) | Analysis of the sounds of language |
| Transcriptional phonetics | SLPs use of IPA; gives speech in any language the ability to be transcribed |
| SLP needs phonetics for | (1) Planning treatment; (2) Wruting reports on unintelligible patients; (3) Eval for language development |
| Morpheme | minimal unit of conceptual meaning |
| Free morpheme | Words that can stand alone; independent root words (e.g. cat or friend) |
| Bound morpehe | Connected to root words; prefixes; suffixes (e.g. "un", "dis", "re", "less") |
| Phoneme | A phone that is a speech sound; basic sound segment that has linguistic function |
| Minimal pair | pairs of words that differ in only one sound (e.g. bat/pat) |
| Grapheme | Alphabet letters used in a language (e.g. c-a-t = 3 graphemes) |
| Allomorph | Variation of morphemes in a language that are phonetically conditioned (e.g. cooked, steamed, and kneaded) |
| Allophone | Phonetic variation of a phoneme (e.g. /t/ in letter is pronounced like a /d/) |
| Allograph | Variant written forms of phonemes (e.g. f or ph for /f/) |
| Assimilation | Coarticulatory influence of one sound over another (e.g. hot potato) |
| Aspiration | Puff of air that accompanies the release of a speech sound: /p/, /t/, /k/ |
| Complimentary distribution | Allophone restriction of placement in words |
| Free variation | Variation of phonemes; usually occuse in final position of words, can occur variably as an aspirated or non-aspirated sound |
| Virgules | Symbols used to represent the phonemes of a language: slashes (e.g. /p/) |
| Brackets | Symbols used to represent allophones or phonetic variants of phonemes (e.g. [k]) |
| Diacritic marks | Phonetic symbols modified by special marks for phonemes with a large number of allophonic variance |
| Broad transription | Transcription made with little attention to allophonic or phonetic differences. Uses // only. |
| Narrow transcription | Transcription that indicates the non-phonemic details of pronunciation. Uses [] and diacritic marks. |
