Phonetics
English phonetics is a group of symbols that represent all the different sounds of a language.
With a language like English having many irregularities in its spelling and little logic to connect
spelling and pronunciation, phonetics offers an admirable solution, here is why phonetics is
closely related to anatomy, physiology, physics and neurology.
/ə:/
/ʌ/
This phoneme is a short vowel close to 'a'. In English it is often associated with the
grapheme 'o' before the consonants 'w' or 'c' and after 'n'.
Examples
Phonology
Phonology is the aphonic system of languages, it refers to the great variety of sounds that a
speaker can emit, they represent the same thing although the pronunciation forms are different
from the acoustic point of view, at the same time they have the possibility to differentiate the
sounds that indicate a difference of meaning. Each time a word is pronounced, it is not
pronounced in the same way, because each pronunciation depends on the other sounds that
surround it. The sounds acquire different values according to the functionality they occupy in a
given environment, however there are some aspects that do not differ and that allow us to
recognize them without confusion in any position.
Examples
In Spanish caro and carro are distinguished because the first word has the phoneme /ɾ/
and the second has the phoneme /r/. If we change the phoneme, then we change the
meaning.
In Spanish casa and caza are distinguished because the first word has the phoneme /s/ and
the second has the phoneme /z/. If we change the phoneme, then we change the meaning.
This phrase implies that the phoneme studies the sounds of a language, which is divided into two:
phonetics, which studies the sounds and how they are made, and phonology, which describes the way in
which the sounds work in a specific language or perhaps in several languages in general, but at an abstract
or mental level.
