This document discusses speech and oral communication. It provides a diagram labeling the speech-producing mechanism and its parts. It then covers phonetics and phonetic transcription. It discusses the smallest units of speech (phonemes, syllables, words), types of sounds (vowels, consonants, diphthongs), and how consonants can be classified based on manner of articulation (plosive, fricative, nasal, etc.). It also addresses oral communication, public speaking, literature in the Philippines during different time periods, and literary forms.

(Adamâs apple) which contains and protects

7. The smallest unit of speech sound is called a
phoneme.
One or more phonemes combine to form a
syllable.
One or more syllables combine to form a word.
Phonemes can be divided into two groups:
vowels and consonants.
8. Vowels are always voiced. Consonants may be voiced
or unvoiced.
A diphthong is a combination of two or more vowels
into one phoneme.
Consonants may be classified according to their
manner of
articulation as plosive, fricative, nasal, liquid, and
semivowel.
9. a) A phoneme is the smallest structural
unit in speech that distinguishes
meaning. An example of a phoneme is
the /t/ sound in the words âtip,â âstand,â
âwater,â and âcat.â
10. b) A syllable is a unit of organization for a
sequence of speech sounds. These are
considered the phonological âbuilding
blocksâ of words. A word that consists of a
single syllable (like âcatâ) is called a
monosyllable.
11. c) A word is a unit of language that
carries meaning and consists of one or
more morphemes. Typically a word will
consist of a root or stem and zero or
more affixes.
12. morphemeâis the smallest linguistic unit that has
semantic meaning. For example, the word
âunbreakableâ has three morphemes: un- (meaning
ânotâ), -break-, and -able.
affixesâis a morpheme that is attached to a root to
form a word like the prefix un- and the suffix âable
in âunbreakable.â
13. d) A vowel is a sound in spoken language
that is characterized by an open
configuration of the vocal tract so that there
is no build-up of air pressure above the
glottis. A vowel is also understood to be
syllabic and is usually voiced.
14. e) A consonant is a sound that is
characterized by a constriction or
complete/partial closure at one or more
points along the vocal tract.
15. g.) A diphthong is a monosyllabic vowel
combination involving a quick but smooth
movement or glide from one vowel to
another, often interpreted by listeners as a
single phoneme.
19. Dental consonants occur
when you block airflow by
placing your tongue against
your upper teeth.
/Ξ/ as is "thick" and "bath"
/Ă°/ as in "the" and "rather"
20. Alveolar consonants are created
when you raise your tongue to the
alveolar ridge so as to block
airflow.
/n/ as in "no" and "man"
/t/ as in "tab" and "rat"
/d/ as in "dip" and "bad"
/s/ as in "suit" and "bus"
/z/ as in "zit" and "jazz"
/l/ as in "luck" and "fully"
21. post-alveolar consonants are those
that occur when the tongue blocks
airflow at the point just beyond the
alveolar ridge.
/Ê/ as in "shoot" or "brash"
/Ê/ as in "vision" or "measure"
/tÊ/ as in "chick" or "match"
/dÊ/ as in "jam" or "badge"
22. Palatal consonants
when you raise the tongue
to this point so as to block
airflow.
English has only one palatal
consonant:
/j/ as in "yes" and "bayou"
23. Velar Consonants are created
when you raise the back of your
tongue to the velum so as to block
airflow.
/Ć/ as in "going" and "uncle"
/k/ as in "kite" and "back"
/g/ as in "good" and "bug"
/w/ as in "wet" and "howard"
24. Glottal consonants aren't really
consonants; they just play
consonant roles in the
language.
/h/ as in "hi" and
"Bahamas". You're not really
blocking airflow for this /h/
sound, you're just sort of
exhaling a little bit harder.
27. 1.) A plosive (or stop) is a consonant
sound produced by stopping the
airflow in the vocal tract as in /b/.
28. 2. ) A fricative is a consonant sound
produced by forcing air through a
narrow channel made by placing
two articulators
close together.
29. 3.) A sibilant is a type of fricative or
affricate consonant made by directing a
jet of air through a narrow channel in
the vocal tract towards the sharp edge
of the teeth as in /s/.
30. 4. ) A nasal is produced when the velumâ
that fleshy part of the
palate near the backâis lowered, allowing
air to escape
freely through the nose instead of the
mouth as it is blocked
by the tongue, as in /m/.
31. 5.) A liquid is a consonant sound
that is intermediate between vowels
and typical consonants and
includes approximants and
laterals.
32. 6.) A semivowel (also known as a
glide) is a non-syllabic vowel that
form diphthongs with full syllabic
vowels like the
approximants /w/ and /y/.
33.
34. Phonetics is the study of sounds.
With phonetictranscriptions,
dictionaries tell you about the
pronunciation of words.
