Phonology is the study of how sounds are organized and used in languages, analyzing sound patterns and determining which sounds are significant. It examines the phonological system of a language, including sound inventories and interaction rules. Phonetics is the study of human speech sounds, describing their articulatory and acoustic properties, and analyzes sound production regardless of language. While phonology studies how sounds combine and change meaning, phonetics simply describes speech sound properties.
