    Study Notes

    Part 1

    • Outlining: The process of taking the main outline first before the details.
    • Compound Words: Formed using hyphens, not apostrophes or full stops.
    • Children: The desire for more children can equate to financial status (e.g., "I am a millionaire").
    • Speech Production: The somatosensory system plays a role, proven by Wein (2013).
    • "Phone": An example of a clipped word.
    • Workplace: Takes an hour to travel to, according to the provided text.
    • Speech Production (Bock, 1995): Involves coordinating the respiratory system.
    • Speech Production (Wein, 2013): Involves the somatosensory system.
    • Speech Production Musculature: Approximately 100 muscles are involved.
    • Velum's Role: Directs airflow for oral or nasal sounds in speech production.

    Part 2

    • Sentence Structure: A sentence is a complete thought with a subject and predicate.
    • Full Stops: A full stop indicates a statement.
    • Sentence Types:
      • Exclamations: Use exclamation marks.
      • Questions: Use question marks
      • Commands: Use periods
      • Statements: Use periods.
    • Predicates: The predicate of a sentence is what's being done, e.g., "are working on a project".
    • Verbs: Crucial for sentence structure, convey action or being.
    • Sentences: Expressing thoughts or ideas in complete thought units.
    • Speech Parts: The velum's function is to direct airflow for oral or nasal sounds.
    • Speech Production Complexity: Speech production is a highly complex motor act involving approximately 100 muscles.

    Part 3

    • Speech Production Systems: The respiratory, laryngeal, and oral motor systems are involved.
    • Speech Sounds: Language-specific phonemes enable humans to create sounds unique to their language.
    • Muscles in Speech Production: 100 muscles are involved.
    • Respiratory System: The diaphragm is crucial for speech production.
    • Speech Production Complexity: The complex motor act that involves approximately 100 muscles.
    • Vowel Sounds: The oral cavity helps create vowels.
    • Speech Organ: The esophagus is not part of the oral cavity.
    • Speech Production: Defined as the process of producing speech sounds.
    • Speech Control in Brain: The ventral sensorimotor cortex (vSMC) controls facial and mouth muscles.

    Part 4

    • Phonetics: The study of speech sounds.
    • Phonetics Branches: Articulatory (physical properties), Acoustic (sound waves), Auditory (sound perception), Clinical (related to therapy)
    • Phonetic Analysis Tools: Spectrograms aid in acoustic phonetics.
    • Phonetics Foundation: Provides a foundation for linguistics, including phonology.
    • Types of Phonetics: Articulatory phonetics focuses on sound production; acoustic phonetics on sound waves; auditory phonetics on sound perception.
    • Speech Sounds: Classified into sounds.

    Part 5

    • Speech Production: Involves the somatosensory system, according to Wein (2013).
    • Pharynx: Directs air to oral and nasal cavities.
    • Speech Production: Is the vocal cord vibrations create sound.
    • Brain and Speech: The ventral sensorimotor cortex (vSMC) controls facial and mouth muscles.

    Part 6

    • Phonetics: The study of speech sounds.
    • Speech Production: Involves the somatosensory system, according to Wein (2013).
    • Pharynx: Directs air to oral and nasal cavities.
    • Speech Production: Is the vocal cord vibrations create sound.
    • Brain and Speech: The ventral sensorimotor cortex (vSMC) controls facial and mouth muscles.
