Speaking and understanding speech phonetic plan communicative intent articulation linguistic encoding acoustic signal linguistic decoding auditory perceptual representation communicative intent

What is phonetics all about?

Three areas of phonetic science articulatory phonetics the production of speech sounds acoustic phonetics the physical properties of speech sounds auditory phonetics the perception of speech sounds

Articulatory phonetics How are speech sounds produced? Which body parts are involved? How do the organs involved in speech production work? How do humans learn to produce speech sounds?

Acoustic phonetics What are the physical properties of speech sounds? vowel

Auditory phonetics Which body parts are involved in the perception of speech? How do they work? How do humans learn to perceive speech? How many words are produced?
