Vowels What is vowels ? - That vowels are sounds in which there is no obstruction to the flow of air as it passes from the larynx to the lips. - Vowels are described based on the following criteria; the height of the tongue, the part of the tongue that is raised or lowered and the position of the lips. A vowel may be short or long
- Some English sounds that we think of as consonants like /w/ and /j/ do not really obstruct the flow of air more than some vowels do. -Therefore, we can also say that /w/ /j/ and /h/ are phonetically vowels because there is no obstruction to the flow of air when the sounds are produced but, phonologically, they are consonants because they can occur with vowel sounds
Method to distinguish vowels 1.The shape and position of the tongue ¨CThe tongue height ¨C close or open ¨CThe tongue part ¨C front or back 2.The shape of the lips ¨CRounded ¨C the corners are brought towards each other and the lips pushed forwards [u] ¨CSpread ¨C the corners are moved away from each other as for a smile [i] ¨CNeutral ¨C the lips are not rounded or spread as in ¡®er¡¯ when people hesitate
Cardinal Vowels -Cardinal vowels are a standard reference system, and people being trained in phonetics at an advanced level have to learn to make them accurately and recognise them correctly.
ENGLISH SHORT VOWELS ¡ñ English has seven short vowel sounds: ¡ñ Each vowel is described in relation to the cardinal vowels. ? ? ? e ? ? u ¡ñ Since the sounds are short, they are lax.
