__________________________________Summary____________________________________ The questions professor Futrell propose today are: | Articulatory Phonetics | - How people move their articulators to produce linguistic sounds | Acoustic Phonetics | - The properties of the waveforms of linguistic sounds ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Anatomy~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | Larynx | - Creates the buzzing sounds | Vocal Tract (tongue, mouth, nasal cavity) | - Constricts airflow, to modify buzzing sounds Vocal Folds: When open - the person is breathing When closed - the person is talking and creates a vibration | Articulators | - part of the vocal anatomy which can move to filter the air coming through the larynx to produce the sounds of a language These are…. Lips (p , b, m) Teeth Tongue Alveolar Ridge (Ta, Da, Sa) Hard Palate Velum Uvula Pharynx Glottis ( The vocal folds ) | Articulatory Gestures | - Articulators involved in movements p, b, m: bilabial f, v: labiodental th: dental t, d, s, z, n: alveolar ch, j, sh: postalveolar k, g: velar n, m: nasal | Phone | - is a distinct discrete speech sound | Place of articulation | - indicates which articulators are involved. | Manner of articulation | - indicates how the articulators are moving - | Stop Consonant | - involves total obstruction of airflow - | Nasal Consonant | - Redirects air into the nasal cavity - | Fricative Consonant | - Involves continuous, turbulent airflow with friction. | Voicing | - Indicates the state of the vocal cords during the production of a sound - | Voiced | - Vocal cords are closed and vibrating - | Unvoiced | - Vocal cords are open Professor Futrell then starts making gibberish noises at the end of the video.
the hindi alphabet is organized by these articulators. The "letters" are really just individual sounds(phonemes?) so the alphabet goes something like:. K, Kh, G, Gh / Ch, chh, J, jhh / T, Th, D, Dh / P, ph, b, bh. etc
As a guys who has had his mind opened by God him self to see the light of the world around us This brilliance is Explained and understand with greater glory The one who put it all together like this rather then the unplanned path to explain it. I marvel with joy at this vocal mechanism. A well made engine in a car is something to Marvel at the genius who made it.
Thank you very very much! I've been feeling lost in my lectures for a few weeks now. Hopefully completing this video will make it easier to follow along in my lectures.
I love your classes! I just would like to point out that "caro" is an adjective in Spanish that means expensiveand we use it for masculine nouns and "cara" is a noun that means face or expensive (cara) an adjective for feminine nouns. I really appreciate your class, I'm a student in Spanish teaching as a second or foreign language but now I'm fascinated by linguistics.
Back in the day, when I studied English Phonetics, "phones" were called "phonemes". Am I missing something? Has this linguistic term changed since then? Help!
There is another way to check whether a phone is nasal. Close your nostrils with your fingers and try to produce the phone. If this changes the phone dramatically or makes it impossible to produce, the phone is nasal. For example, if you try to produce [m] with your nostrils closed, you'll produce something closer to [b].
you probably googled this by now, but the welsh double l is called a lateral fricative. I think it's technically alveolar, but it's different from the english sh because the air flows laterally, on each side of the tongue
34:37 As a Hungarian I can confirm you pronounced that perfectly. 49:31 I would argue you _do_ have this in English. How do you say "CaliforNia"? Where is /ts/ (as in caTS) and /dz/ (as in LinDSay) though? Anyhow, it's a good lecture. :)
Hello Prof Futrell, Your Articulatory Phonetics Course would be great if you were pronoucing the consonants correctly by NOT adding the vowel /ə/ to them when you articulate them. NB.- The consonants are /p/, /t/, /k/, /s/, etc., NOT /pə/, /tə/, /kə/, /sə/; etc. Hopefully, you will fix these hypercorrections in your future classes. Ling. SANON

NB.- The consonants are /f/, /v/, /d/, /s/, etc., NOT /fə/, /və/, /də/, /sə/; etc. Be so kind to fix these hypercorrections in your future classes. Ling. Dony SANON
Thank You... "And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house".(Acts 16:31) " He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him". (John 3:36) "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved" .(Romans 10:9) "He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life". (1 John 5:23) "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death".(Revelation 21:8) John 3:16 King James Version 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved".(Romans 10:9)
It's very degrading to human beings to claim we evolved from apes. First you acknowledge the amazing & complicated process of human speech, which works quite naturally in perfect harmony with the mind and the physical parts body without a whole lot of effort; then you claim we "evolved" this way from apes! How does that make any sense!? Human beings are the highest of the created beings, we didn't evolve! How could an ape create himself from a lower creature, or evolve himself into a higher one! That is utterly ridiculous! We couldn't even create one word if God had not given us the ability. Why not give Him the honour, since He is where we had our beginning: from God, Who created everything in heaven and in earth which is mind boggling to us, so man denies God and believes a lie. Evolution is a dumb theory no one has ever proved ! It is not even logical! But through "education" and unbelief we have been brainwashed to believe it. Cool lectures, tho'.
