Phoneme: the minimum unit of sound that conveys meaning in a particular language (p-i-n) Voice on set time: delay between the initial sound of a consonant and the onset of vibration of the vocal cords (delay of voicing for pa is about 0. 06 second) Phonemic discriminations begin with auditory processing of the sensory differences, occurs in both hemispheres; regions of the left auditory cortex seem to specialize in recognizing special aspects of speech. Phoneme combined to form morpheme: the smallest unit of language (fast-est) Syntax; synthesis comes from the greek world syntassein to put together .
