Study Notes
Articulatory Phonetics
- Articulatory phonetics is concerned with the transformation of aerodynamic energy into acoustic energy.
- The two aspects of speech sounds that articulatory phonetics explains are:
- The physical properties of the sounds (such as their place and manner of articulation)
- The way these sounds are produced by the speaker's vocal organs
- Articulatory phonetics is concerned with studying the physical properties of speech sounds and how they are produced by the speaker's vocal organs.
- The point of maximum obstruction is called the place of articulation.
- Example of place and manner of articulation:
- Bilabial sounds (e.g., /p/, /b/, /m/) are produced by obstructing the airflow with both lips (place of articulation) and then releasing it (manner of articulation).
