Phonetics vs Phonology
- Phonetics is thus concerned with sound production while
phonology studies sound behaviour in realisation
- PHONETICS
- Phonetics is a scientific
description of what speech
sounds exist in a language
- It represents
- how they are produced and
perceived and what acoustic
properties they have.
- Phonetics
- essentially seeks to trace the processes
physiologically involved in sound
production
- The major division in speech sounds
is that between vowels and
consonants.
- a vowel
- is a sound that is produced without any major
constrictions in the vocal tract, so that there is a
relatively free passage for the air
- consonants
- the airstream through the vocal tract is obstructed in
some way. Consonants can be classified according to
the place and manner of this obstruction
- PHONOLOGY
- Phonology is concerned with the regularities that
govern the phonetic realisations of sounds in words
of a language
- It looks
- at and tries to establish a
system of sound distinctions
relevant to a particular
language
- Phonology
- actually delineates the
functioning of sounds in
particular contexts
- we see the phoneme /t/ realised
phonologically as
- /th/ in tape /tL/ in
kettle /tN/ in kitten
/to/ in other
positions as in Kate
