Study Notes
- Phonemes are the smallest units of spoken language, representing the smallest sounds in every word ever spoken in any language.
- Each language has a different number of phonemes to convey meaning.
- English is a complex language when it comes to graphemes and phonemes, as shown in the example of the digraph "ghoti" representing the phoneme /f/ in the word "enough."
- Morphemes are the smallest units of language that create meaning.
- A morpheme can be a single phoneme, a combination of phonemes, or a prefix or suffix.
- The suffix "-er" is a morpheme that conveys meaning on its own, indicating "one who does the action of the verb."
- Morphemes can be indicated by brackets in written language.
- The alphabetic principle is the idea that letters represent sounds.
- Graphemes are the symbols that represent phonemes, in English, they are letters.
- Digraphs are graphemes made up of more than one letter, like "ch" in the word "choke."
- Segmenting means breaking down words into their component phonemes.
- Speech organs and locations are the physical structures used to produce speech sounds.
- The process of moving from sound to meaning involves understanding morphemes and their roles in forming words.
- The example of the word "choker" shows how multiple morphemes can combine to create a single word with meaning.
- The plural morpheme "-s" is another example of a morpheme that conveys meaning.
- Graphemes and phonemes work together to create the language that we share.
- The specialist terminology of the discipline includes the alphabetic principle, phoneme, grapheme, digraph, morpheme, segmenting, speech organs, and locations.
- Phonemic awareness is the goal of making students conscious of the finite number of phonemes in a language and their ability to recognize, distinguish, and manipulate them.
