The study of human speech sound
• Phonetics is the science that discusses how a sound can be formed using several parts of the body, namely the lips, teeth, tongue, pharynx and lungs. This science only discusses the relationship between the parts of the body that produce sound.
• Phonetic is divided into 3 kinds, namely:
- Ariticulatory phonetic, namely the study of the way sound is formed,
- Auditory phonetics, namely, the science that investigates the mechanism of receiving language sounds by the senses.
- Acoustic phonetic. is a science that analyzes the sounds of language according to their physical aspects as air vibrations.
• The organs of speech are made up of:
Lips
Tongue
Teeth
Hard palate
Velum
Uvula
Glottis
lips
The lips as organ of speech create two different sounds which are mainky the labial, bilabial and labio-dental consonant sounds. Thus, both the upper lips and the lower lips are considered important apparatus in producing a speech ssound
teeth
Just like the lips, the teeth as one of the organs of speech are important. Both the upper teeth and lower teeth are used in producing souds like dental and labio-dental consonant sounds.
Tounge
The tongue is considered the most important apparatus out of the organs of speech. The tongue is divided into fiver parts. They are:
Tip
Blade
Front
Back
Root
The tongue is affective in moving in different directions or shapes in moving in older to make speech sound
Alveolar Ridge
This is the between the upper front teeth and hard palate. Thus, to produce speech sound, the alveolar ridge and the blade of the tongue are used.
Hard Palate
This is a bong plate located at the roof of the mouth. The interaction between the hard pa;ate and the tongue is necessary for the production of certain sound.
Pharyny
This help manipulate the vocal structure
Uvula
This help preventing air escaping through the nose while producing sound.
• Phonology is the study of a system with language. This knowledge is a branch of linguistics that is related to how to pronounce language. Phonology also discusses the history of language, about how language used to appear and disappear. In studying a language, of course we will be dealing with this knowledge.
In a broad sense, phonology studies the sounds of language, either general sounds or differentiating meanings. In a broad sense, phonology includes the study of phonetics and phonemics.
• Phonology is divided into 2 parts, namely phonetic and phonemic.
Phonetics studies how the phoneme sounds of a language are realized or pronounced. Phonetics also studies how the organs of the human body work, especially those related to the use and pronunciation of language. In other words, phonetics is the part of phonology that studies how to produce language sounds or how a sound is produced by human speech organs. Phonetics can be explained as a branch of phonology that studies the sounds of language without regard to their status, whether the sounds of language can distinguish meaning (words) or not.
Phonemics is a branch of phonology that studies the sounds of language by paying attention to the function of these sounds as a differentiator of meaning. Example: the sound [p] in the words [pace], [space], and [map] is not the same. Things like this are the goal/object of phonemic science.
