 Lesson Objectives
In order to support efficient communication in a
variety of linguistic contexts, these fields of
research seek to understand, evaluate, and enhance
various elements of speech sounds, their patterns,
and their creation.
Introduction
By studying phonetics, phonology, pronunciation,
and articulation, researchers, linguists, and
language learners gain insights into the mechanics
of speech production, the structure of language
sounds, and techniques for improving oral
communication. These fields of research advance
our knowledge of speech and help people become
more proficient speakers of different languages and
communicate effectively in a variety of linguistic
settings.
 Summary Vs. Analysis
Summary
In summary, phonology examines the patterns and
guidelines dictating how speech sounds are produced
within a language's sound system, phonetics
explores the physical characteristics of speech
sounds. Phonetics studies the physical characteristics
of sounds, whereas phonology studies the abstract
structures and mental representations of sounds in
language.
Analysis
Phonology analyzes the abstract patterns and
structures of sounds, phonetics examines the
physical characteristics of speech sounds,
pronunciation concentrates on accurate delivery and
intelligibility, and articulation deals with the
physical motions necessary to produce speech
sounds. Every discipline offers different viewpoints
and methods for comprehending and enhancing
different facets of speech and language
communication.
 Phonetics
Phonetics is the study of the physical sounds of human
speech. It focuses on how these sounds are produced,
transmitted, and perceived, as well as their articulation,
acoustic characteristics, and auditory perception.
Example
 Phonology
Phonology is the study of the abstract and systematic
patterns of sounds in language. It examines the
distribution, arrangement, and patterns of sounds as well
as their interactions with one another in a given language
or languages.
 Pronunciation
Pronunciation refers to the way in which
speech sounds are produced or articulated. It
deals with the accurate phonetic
representation and articulation of spoken
sounds in a particular language.
 Here are the examples of commonly
mispronounced words;
Cache - kash

Grenade - gri-neyd

Infamous - in–fuh-muhs

Suffocate - suhf–uh-keyt

Queue - kyoo
 Articulation
The act of producing distinct sounds during speech by
manipulating the speech organs, namely the tongue,
lips, and vocal cords, is known as articulation. To create
the appropriate sounds, it entails the precise movement
and control of these articulatory organs.
Here are some examples of
Articulation:
"bat" and "pat" "tip" and "dip"

"fun" and "van" "sip" and "zip"

"thin" and "this"
