This document provides an overview of phonetics and phonology. It begins by defining phonetics as the study of speech as a physical phenomenon, including articulation, acoustics, and perception. Articulatory phonetics examines speech production mechanisms like manners and places of articulation. Acoustic phonetics studies periodic waves, resonance, and the source-filter model of speech production. Phonology is then defined as the conceptual representation of sounds and their interaction in languages. Key phonological concepts discussed include phonemes, features, rules, syllables, prominence, and intonation. Computational approaches to modeling these linguistic components are also briefly mentioned.
