2. The oral cavity Lips (labia唇) Teeth (dentes齿) Tooth-ridge (alveoli齿龈) Hard palate ( 硬腭) Soft palate (velum软腭) Uvula (小舌) Tip of tongue (舌尖) Blade of tongue (舌面) Front of tongue (舌前部) Back of tongue (舌后部) Tongue root (舌根) The most flexible part here in this cavity is the tongue, which is responsible for more varieties of articulation than any other. So, there is no surprise that the word “language’ itself derives from the Latin word “lingua”, meaning the “tongue”.
LECTURE TWO PHONOLOGY

2.1 The phonic medium of language
Speech is prior to writing for several reasons Phonic medium of language and speech sounds The limited-numbered sounds produced by humans through their speech organs which are meaningful in human communication constitute the Phonic Medium of Language; and the individual sounds within this range are the Speech Soe used to record the sound waves for specific research.
2.2.2 Organs of Speech The articulatory apparatus of a human being are contained in three important areas: the pharyngeal cavity (the throat), the oral cavity (the mouth) and the nasal cavity (the nose).

Classification of English consonants: Two ways: 1) In terms of manner of articulation the English consonants can be classified into the following types Stops/Plosives (闭塞/爆破)6 Fricatives (摩擦音)9 Affricates (塞擦音) 2 Laterals / liquids (侧音/ 边[通]音/ 流音) 2 Approximants/ glides/ semivowels (近音/ [中]通音/ 滑 音/ 半元音) 2 Nasals (鼻音) 3

Auditory phonetics: looks at the sounds from the hearer’s point of view, i.e., how the sounds are perceived by the hearer. Acoustic phonetics: studies the way sounds travel by looking at the sound waves, the physical means by which sounds are transmitted through the air from one person to another.
3. Broad transcription: The transcription of speech sounds which uses ordinary symbols (letter-symbols only). 4. Narrow transcription: The transcription of speech sounds using more specific symbols (letter-symbols together with diacritics).

2. Classification of English vowels criteria (parameters) of vowel description: (monophthongs) ① the position of highest part of the tongue front, central, back ②the height of tongue raising * high, middle, low ③ the openness of the mouth close, semi-close, semi-open, open ④ the shape of the lips (the degree of lip-rounding ) rounded, unrounded
2. diacritics: when some sounds differ each other only in very subtle ways, or in some detailed aspects, the phoneticians invented another set of symbols which are added to the letter symbols to indicate the finer distinctions between them. This set of symbols are referred to as diacritics.
Also in the speech sounds of Japanese, it is very common to notice the distinction between aspirated and unaspirated.
2.2.4 Classification of English speech sounds Two broad categories: Consonants (辅音) Obstruction of air flow E.g. [b], [k], [d], … [+voiced][-voiced] Vowels (元音) No air obstruction E.g. [i:] [e] [au], …
3. The nasal cavity
2.2.3 Orthographic representations of speech sounds: broad and narrow transcriptions Five conceptions to remember : IPA/ Diacritics/ Broad transcription/ Narrow transcription/ aspirated vs unaspirated 1. IPA: a standardized and internationally accepted phonetic system used to transcribe speech sounds devised by the International Phonetic Association in 1888 and underwent several revisions after then, the basic principle of which is to use one letter selected from one major European language to represent one speech sound.
Example: help Broad transcription: [help] Narrow transcription: [hełph] Commonly used diacritics: 。. ~
5. aspirated vs unaspirated A sound may have many variations Example : [p] in peak, pit, etc., the sound [p] is produced with a strong puff of air, so it is aspirated [ph] [p] in speak, spit, etc., the air is withheld to some extent when the sound [p] is produced, so it is referred to as unaspirated [p=] or simply [p]
A sound may have many variations Example 1: [p] in peak is aspirated [ph] [p] in speak is unaspirated [p=] or simply [p] Example 2: [l] in lead is clear [l] [l] in deal is dark [ł] Symbols for such more specific sounds are called diacritics (变音符)

• Phonological analysis relies on the principle that certain sounds cause changes in the meaning of a word or phrase, whereas other sounds do not.
2. Phonetics & phonology
• 3) Phoneticians are concerned with how sounds differ in the way they are pronounced. Eg. how these two [t]s differ in the way they are pronounced in the word “tea” & “too” ;
• The minimal pairs test • The phoneme theory • Allophonic variations
• pit VS bit
2.2 Phonemic contrast音位对立
• If the phonetically similar sounds are two distinctive phonemes, e.g./p/ & /b/ in “pit”& “bit”, they are said to form a phonemic contrast.
• A simple methodology to demonstrate this is to take a word, replace one sound by another, and see whether a different meaning results.

Phonetic & Phonology
———the study of speech sounds
Speech sounds--- Language is primarily vocal. The primary medium of human language is sound.
----A phonetician is mainly interested in the physical properties of the speech sounds. He is concerned with all the sounds that occur in the world’s languages.
❖ Auditory phonetics (听觉语音学) ----from the hearers’ point of view, “how sounds are perceived”
❖ Acoustic phonetics---- (声学语音学) from the physical way or means by which sounds are transmitted through the air from one person to another. It tries to describe the physical properties of the stream of sounds which a speakers issues
(alveolar) 4. Hard palate 5. Soft palate (velum) 6. Uvula 7. Tip of tongue 8. Blade of tongue 9. Back of tongue 10. Vocal cords 11. PhaWhen the vocal cords are drawn wide apart, letting air go through without causing vibration, the sounds produced in such a condition are voiceless.
