The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) was first published in 1888 by the International Phonetic Association to create a standardized system for transcribing the sounds of oral language. The IPA was based on a preexisting phonetic script for English and is used by linguists, language teachers, and others to indicate pronunciation in dictionaries, represent unwritten languages, and transcribe foreign language sounds. The IPA uses letters and diacritics that can be combined to precisely represent speech sounds, and the symbols are periodically updated by the International Phonetic Association.

![The International Phonetic Alphabet (unofficiallythough commonlyabbreviated IPA)[note 1] is
an alphabeticsystem of phonetic notation based primarily on the Latin alphabet. It was devised by
the International Phonetic Association as a standardized representation of the sounds of oral
language.[1] The IPA is used by lexicographers,foreign language students and
teachers, linguists, speech-language pathologists, singers, actors, constructed language creators,
and translators.[2][3]
The IPA is designed to represent only those qualities of speech that are part of oral
language: phones, phonemes,intonation, and the separation of words and syllables.[1] To represent
additional qualities of speech, such as tooth gnashing, lisping, and sounds made with a cleft palate,
an extended set of symbols called the Extensions to the IPA may be used.[2]
IPA symbols are composed of one or more elements of two basic types, letters and diacritics. For
example, the sound of the English letter t may be transcribed in IPA with a single letter, [t], or with a
letter plus diacritics, [t椋憤], depending on how precise one wishes to be.[note 2] Often, slashes are used to
signal broad or phonemic transcription; thus, /t/ is less specific than, and could refer to,
either [t椋憤] or [t], depending on the context and language.
Occasionally letters or diacritics are added, removed, or modified by the International Phonetic
Association. As of the most recent change in 2005,[4] there are 107 letters, 52 diacritics, and](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/internationalphoneticalphabet-150714041707-lva1-app6892/85/International-phonetic-alphabet-3-320.jpg)

This document discusses phonetics and the production of speech sounds. It describes how speech sounds are made (articulatory phonetics) and the two basic positions of the vocal cords that determine if a sound is voiced or voiceless. It then explains the place of articulation in the mouth where sounds are produced, such as bilabial, labiodental, alveolar, palatal, and velar. Finally, it discusses the manner of articulation, including stops, fricatives, nasals, liquids, glides, and other categories that describe how the articulators interact and affect airflow. MORPHOLOGY
MORPHOLOGY King Saud University

Morphology is the study of word structures and forms. It involves breaking words down into individual morphemes, which are the smallest units of meaning. There are two types of morphemes: free morphemes, which can stand alone as words, and bound morphemes, which cannot stand alone and must be attached to other morphemes. A word can consist of root morphemes, derivational morphemes that change the word's meaning or part of speech, and inflectional morphemes that change grammatical features like number or tense. Morphology examines both the internal structures of words and processes of word formation like compounding, derivation, and inflection.Articulation
Articulationmanuelmedinavuad
油
There are eight places of articulation for sounds in the mouth. Bilabial sounds are produced with the lips, like /p/ and /b/. Labiodental sounds involve the lower lip and upper teeth, like /f/ and /v/. Dental sounds use the tongue tip and upper teeth, like /慮/ and /丹/. Alveolar sounds are made by raising the tongue to the alveolar ridge, producing sounds like /t/, /s/, /n/, and /l/. Palatoalveolar sounds raise the tongue blade higher in the mouth, like // and //. Velar sounds raise the back of the tongue to the soft palate and include /kCsd 210 introduction to phonetics i and ii

This document provides an introduction to phonetics, which is the study of speech sounds. It defines phonetics and discusses the subfields of articulatory phonetics, acoustic phonetics, and clinical phonetics. Key concepts covered include phonemes, the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), ways of classifying vowels and consonants based on place and manner of articulation, and voicing. Vowels, diphthongs, and consonants are defined and examples of each are provided.Monopthongs (PRONUNCIATION)

This document discusses monophthongs, or pure vowels, in English pronunciation. It defines monophthongs as vowels produced with a single, consistent mouth position and tone. The document then divides English monophthongs into two categories: long vowels (, , 朝, , 笛) and short vowels (, , 牒, , 鏑). It provides phonetic symbols and examples to illustrate the pronunciation of each monophthong. The document also discusses other English vowel sounds like schwa and r-controlled vowels, and clarifies the difference between short and long vowels.Phone, phoneme and allophone
Phone, phoneme and allophoneIbrahim Muneer
油
Phoneme consists of two parts: phon and eme. Phon refers to the shape of a sound, and phoneme is formed when eme is added to phon. A phoneme is the smallest unit in a language that can change meaning. A phoneme is a set of allophones, which are variants of the same phoneme that do not change meaning. An essential property of a phoneme is that it functions contrastively in a language.Vowels
Vowelsmanuelmedinavuad
油
Vowels are distinguished from consonants phonologically by their ability to form syllable nuclei. Vowels differ phonetically in terms of tongue position (height and frontness/backness), length, and rounding. English has short and long vowels that vary in height from high to low and in frontness from front to back, with some central vowels. Vowels are also distinguished as rounded or unrounded based on lip position during articulation. Analyzing vowels this way allows for an accurate description of their phonetic production.Phonemes and allophones
Phonemes and allophonesmanuelmedinavuad

The document discusses the role of phonemes in language, illustrating how changes in individual sounds can significantly alter meaning, as seen in examples involving the names of two doctors and various other word pairs. It distinguishes between phonological changes, which affect meaning, and phonetic variations, which do not, also explaining the unique phonemic structures of different languages. Additionally, it covers allophones as realizations of phonemes that retain the same distinctive features yet may differ in pronunciation without altering meaning. phonemes

Phonemes are the smallest units of sound that distinguish one word from another in a language. There are 44 phonemes in English represented by letters alone or letter combinations. Phonemes can be segmented from words by breaking words into their individual sound units. The English language has a complex phonetic code where one phoneme can be represented by 1 to 4 letters. Minimal pairs are word pairs that differ by one phoneme, like "fan" and "van", helping learners distinguish similar sounds.Morphology (Linguistics)

The document discusses the principal types and variations of English pronunciation. It notes that there are four components of phonetic structure - phonemic, syllabic, accentual, and intonational - that constitute a language's pronunciation. Accents refer solely to pronunciation differences, whereas dialects involve differences in vocabulary, grammar, and word order as well. There are many accents within England, Britain, and across the other regions of the UK, with Northern and Southern accents being a broad distinction in England. The study of variations in accents was traditionally part of dialectology, which aimed to identify all geographical differences in a language.Speech organ and manner of articulation

Phonological rules describe how phonemes are realized as allophones based on neighboring sounds. They are written as X->Y/W_Z, where X becomes Y between sounds W and Z. Assimilation rules make a sound more similar to a neighboring sound, either anticipatory or perseveratory. Dissimilation rules make a sound less similar to neighbors. Neutralization rules result in loss of phonemic distinction. Other rules involve fortition, lenition, epenthesis, deletion, and metathesis.The allomorphs

Phonemes group sets of similar-sounding allophones. For example, [p] and [ph] in English are allophones of the same /p/ phoneme because they occur in complementary distribution and can be substituted without changing a word's meaning. Allophones are phonetic realizations of phonemes that follow language-specific rules.Pidgin and creole

Phonology is the study of sound systems in languages and the properties of those systems. It examines the contrasting sounds or phonemes that make a difference in meaning.
There are seven main speech organs involved in articulation: the pharynx, velum/soft palate, hard palate, alveolar ridge, upper and lower teeth, and lips. Sounds are produced by manipulating air flow using different articulation methods like plosives, fricatives, affricates, laterals, and nasals. Voice is produced by vibration of the vocal cords in the larynx, and pitch is controlled by the larynx shape.International Phonetic Alphabet(IPA)

This document provides an overview of phonetics and its subfields. It defines phonetics as the study of sounds and their production in language. The three main subfields are articulatory phonetics, which studies speech production using the organs of speech; acoustic phonetics, which deals with the acoustic aspects of sounds; and auditory phonetics, which concerns the hearing of speech sounds. It then provides details on the organs of speech involved in sound production, such as the lips, teeth, tongue, alveolar ridge, hard palate, velum, uvula, and glottis.The organs of speech and their function

The key speech organs needed to produce spoken language are the lips, teeth, tongue, alveolar ridge, hard palate, soft palate, uvula, and glottis. The lips and teeth form sounds like /p/, /b/, /f/, and /v/. The tongue can move in various ways and assists in forming speech sounds, with different areas like the tip, front, middle, and back involved. The alveolar ridge and hard palate interact with the tongue to make sounds such as /t/, /d/, and /j/. The soft palate and uvula work with the throat and lungs to create guttural and other sounds.

Phonetics is the study of human speech sounds and their production and perception. This document summarizes key aspects of phonetics including:
- Phonetics involves the physical properties of speech sounds and how they are produced (articulatory phonetics) and perceived (auditory phonetics).
- Languages have different modalities for production (oral or manual) and perception (aural or visual) of speech.
- The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) was created in the late 19th century as a standardized system for representing speech sounds. It uses letters and diacritics and is updated by the International Phonetic Association.

The document discusses key concepts in phonetics and phonology, including:
1. Phonetics studies the physical properties of speech sounds, while phonology examines how sounds function and are organized in a language.
2. Speech sounds are called phones in phonetics and phonemes in phonology. Phonemes represent abstract linguistic units that can distinguish meaning, while phones are concrete sound realizations that are in complementary distribution.
3. Phonetics also examines segmental features of individual sounds as well as suprasegmental features like pitch, length, and loudness that span larger units of speech. It has applications in language teaching, speech technology, and forensic investigations.Phonetics

Phonetics is the study of speech sounds and their production, transmission, and perception. It includes articulatory phonetics, acoustic phonetics, and auditory phonetics. Phonology is concerned with how sounds pattern and relate to meaning in languages. It focuses on abstract cognitive units of speech sounds called phonemes. While phonetics describes speech sounds, phonology describes how they function in languages. Phonetic transcription represents sounds, while orthography represents written symbols.Phonology

Phonology is the study of how sounds are organized and used in languages. It examines sound systems at levels below the word, including phonemes, syllables, and articulatory features. Phonology also studies equivalent systems in sign languages. It is distinguished from phonetics, which examines physical sound production and perception, while phonology describes how sounds function meaningfully in languages. The field has developed from early Sanskrit grammar to modern theories including generative phonology, natural phonology, autosegmental phonology, and optimality theory.Latest Development

Phonetics has been studied since 500 BC in ancient India by Panini, an Indian grammarian whose work on Sanskrit grammar influenced the development of linguistic science in Western Europe. In the 17th-18th centuries, researchers studied lateral and nasal sounds, and the 19th-20th centuries saw the creation of the International Phonetic Alphabet to allow consistent representation of pronunciation across languages. Phonetics is now often studied alongside phonology as an interdisciplinary field. Key developments include the invention of the laryngoscope in 1829 and establishment of the International Phonetic Association in 1886. Phonetics is taught and researched around the world, including at the University of London and University of California.Phonetic 2

IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) was established by the International Phonetic Association in 1886 to standardize phonetic symbols across languages and enable accurate communication about pronunciation. It is used extensively by linguists, speech pathologists, and others for in-depth study of pronunciation. The IPA has expanded over time to cover additional sounds and languages, with major revisions occurring in 1900 to include Arabic sounds and 1932 to incorporate additional symbols.Kirchner on phonology

- 1. International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) Origin The IPA was first published in 1888 by the Association Phon辿tique Internationale (International Phonetic Association), a group of French language teachers founded by Paul Passy. The aim of the organisation was to devise a system for transcribing the sounds of speech which was independent of any particular language and applicable to all languages. A phonetic script for English created in 1847 by Isaac Pitman and Henry Ellis was used as a model for the IPA. Uses The IPA is used in dictionaries to indicate the pronunciation of words. The IPA has often been used as a basis for creating new writing systems for previously unwritten languages. The IPA is used in some foreign language text books and phrase books to transcribe the sounds of languages which are written with non-latin alphabets. It is also used by non-native speakers of English when learning to speak English. Where symbols appear in pairs, the one on the right represents a voiced consonant, while the one on the left is unvoiced. Shaded areas denote articulations judged to be impossible.
- 3. The International Phonetic Alphabet (unofficiallythough commonlyabbreviated IPA)[note 1] is an alphabeticsystem of phonetic notation based primarily on the Latin alphabet. It was devised by the International Phonetic Association as a standardized representation of the sounds of oral language.[1] The IPA is used by lexicographers,foreign language students and teachers, linguists, speech-language pathologists, singers, actors, constructed language creators, and translators.[2][3] The IPA is designed to represent only those qualities of speech that are part of oral language: phones, phonemes,intonation, and the separation of words and syllables.[1] To represent additional qualities of speech, such as tooth gnashing, lisping, and sounds made with a cleft palate, an extended set of symbols called the Extensions to the IPA may be used.[2] IPA symbols are composed of one or more elements of two basic types, letters and diacritics. For example, the sound of the English letter t may be transcribed in IPA with a single letter, [t], or with a letter plus diacritics, [t椋憤], depending on how precise one wishes to be.[note 2] Often, slashes are used to signal broad or phonemic transcription; thus, /t/ is less specific than, and could refer to, either [t椋憤] or [t], depending on the context and language. Occasionally letters or diacritics are added, removed, or modified by the International Phonetic Association. As of the most recent change in 2005,[4] there are 107 letters, 52 diacritics, and
