movement into corresponding electrical activity. While
investigating the acoustic
aspect of speech sounds special laboratory equipment is employed: spectrograph,
intonograph, sound analyzing & sound synthesizing machines.
3....................................................
is aimed at
investigating the hearing
process which is the brain activity. Auditory Phonetics and Acoustic Phonetics are
very closely connected.
4....................................................
presupposes
investigating
the
discriminatory (distinctive) function of speech sounds.
Exercise#2. Read and fill in the gaps:
Comparative
phonetics,
Segmental
phonology
,
Specific
phonetics,Suprasegmental phonology andGeneral phonetics.
Phonetics can be divided into several types like:
1...............................................It studies universal positions of sound
articulation (for
instance, identification of sounds according to the position the
differences of labial,
tongue and throat consonants, according to the ways of
articulation of plosive, fricative and plosive-fricative features), although,
general
acoustic features of sounds.
2...............................................It investigates above mentioned issues in the
samples of certain languages. Specific phonetics researches phonetics in the shapes
of historical and modern, synchronic and diachronic, descriptive and experimental
sides.
3.................................................investigates vowel and consonant phonemes,
their phonetic changes and others in thecomparative aspect
of several genetically
related and non-related languages.
Phonetics and phonology have two levels:
segmental
and
suprasegmental
.
