Document Summary

Note: make sure you understand and memorize the pohnectic alphabet. Phoneme = it has allophones; it is not equal to what we hear. Assimiltion= where one sound starts to sounds like another sound. Voiceless stop followed by a liquid creates a voiceless stop [p,t] Flapping: dental and alveolar stop articulation changes to a flap [ ] . Flap involves a rapid movement of the tongue tip from a retracted vertical position to a more horizontal position tongue tip touches the alveolar ridge. Tap involves a rapid backwards and forwards movement of the tongue tip. The fifth sheik"s fourth sheep is sick: she sells seashells by the seashore. Two sounds become less alike in articulatory or acoustic terms: sequence is easier to articulate and distinguish. Fifths, fifths, fifths watch the transition [f f s] [f fts] Deletion: removal of a segment in certain phonetic contexts. Fast speech deleted some sounds in words: ask.
