  2. Phonetics is the study of how speech sounds – both consonants and vowels, and other phonetic features such as stress and intonation – are produced and what their properties are.

  3. the sounds that are used in the world’s languages. Phonetics studies It aims to examine - each individual sound - its properties and differences from the other sounds.

  4. Phonetics Articulatory phonetics Auditory phonetics Acoustic phonetics Production of speech sounds Perception of speech sounds Transmission of speech sounds through the air

  5. Phonetics features consonants Airstream mechanism Pulmonic airstream mechanism voiceless The opened vocal folds The state of the glottis voiced The vocal folds vibrating Place of articulation Manner of articulation

  6. The English Consonants There are 3 aspects of articulatory properties 2. Place of articulation 1. Voicing 3. Manner of articulation

  7. The English Consonants Chart

  8. Tongue

  9. Places of Articulation

  10. Manners of Articulation

  11. Nasal Plosive Tap or Flap Fricative Manners of Articulation Trill Affricate Lateral Approximant

  12. Plosive The active articulator touches the passive articulator and completely cuts off the airflow through the mouth and then released the airflow through the mouth.

  13. Aspirated is characteristic of voiceless stops consonants pronounced with the initial release of breath. • English /p/, /t/, /k/ pie, tie, kind • Thai /ph/, /th/, /kh/ พา, ทา, คา • Unaspirated is characteristic of voiceless stops consonants which doesn’t pronounced with the initial release of breath. • English /p/, /t/, /k/ speak, star, sky • Thai /p/, /t/, /k/ ปา, ตา, กา

  14. Nasal The soft palate can be lowered, allowing air to flow out through the nasal cavity.

  15. Fricative The active articulator doesn’t touch the passive articulator, but gets close enough that the airflow is gradually released through the mouth.

  16. Affricative Affricates can be seen as a sequence of a plosive and a fricative which have the same or similar places of articulation. They are transcribed using the symbols for the plosive and the fricative.

  17. Approximant The active articulator approaches the passive articulator, but doesn’t even get close enough for the airflow to become turbulent.

  18. Lateral The active articulator touches the passive articulator and have the air go out of the mouth both side of the tongue.
