    Study Notes

    Phonetic Study

    • The study of the characteristics of speech sounds is called phonetics.

    Places of Articulation

    • Bilabial sounds are produced with both lips.
    • Alveolar sounds are produced at the alveolar ridge, just behind the upper front teeth.

    Manner of Articulation

    • The sound produced with the tongue tip behind the upper teeth is called a dental sound.
    • The sound produced with the back of the tongue against the velum is called a velar sound.

    Phonemes

    • The voiceless sound produced with the tongue tip behind the upper teeth is [θ].
    • The voiced sound produced with the back of the tongue against the velum is [ɡ].

    Articulation

    • The place of articulation for palatal sounds is the hard palate.
    • The place of articulation for labiodental sounds is the upper teeth and lower lip.

    Sound Characteristics

    • Palatal sounds are characterized by the tongue touching the hard palate.
