  2. Learning Objectives • What are fricatives and affricates? • How to discriminate and pronounce fricatives and affricates correctly?

  3. Fricatives: // // // // /s/ // // // // /r/ /f/- voiceless labiodental fricative /v/- voiced labiodental fricative //- voiceless dental fricative //- voiced dental fricative /s/- voiceless alveolar fricatives /z/- voiced alveolar fricative //- voiceless post-alveolar fricative //- voiced post-alveolar fricative /h/- voiceless glottal fricative /r/- voiced post-alveolar approximant

  4. What are fricatives? • Fricatives are made by partially blocking the airflow, thus causing the friction-like noise characteristic of these sounds.

  5. What are affricates? • English has two affricates ----- plosives released with • frication –---just like "church" and "judge". • /t/- voiceless post-alveolar affricate • /d/- voiced post-alveolar affricate
