Phonetics
Phonetics is the study of speech sound.
Phonetics is a branch of linguistics that comparises study of the sound of human speech .
The science of phonetics aims to describe all the sound of all the world is languages :
1. Articulatory phonetics
Focus on how the vocal tract produces the sound of languages .
2. Acoustics phonetics
Phisycal properties of the sound languages .
3. Auditory phonetics
Focus on how listeners perceive the sound languages .
In the phonetics there are segmentation , namely the produced by breathing , a said , and ribbons voice .
There are four of the segmentation that is consonan , vocal , diphtong and kluster .
(a). Consonan is dead latters , example : P,d,b,t,h
(b). Vocal is life latters, example : a,i u,e,o .
(c). Diphtong is the latters written double , example : ai au eu
(d). Kluster is the double latters consonan read of one . Example : Like , blue , red .
So..... The now discussed is articulatory phonetics.
Articulatory phonetics
Most speech sound produced by pushing air through the vocal cords.
1. glottis : the opening between the vocal cords.
2. Larynx : voice box
3. Pharynx : tubular part of the throat above the larynx.
4. Oral : mouth
5. Nasal : nose and the passanges connecting it to the throat and sinuses.
Place of articulation
1. Bilabial
Produced by both upper lower lip
( p b m) .
2. Dental
The tip of tongue with the front
Teeth.
3. Labiodental
Produced by touching the bottom
lip to the upper teeth. ( f v)
4. Alveolar
Formed with the tongue touching
behind the upper front teeth. ( th)
5. Palatal
Produced by the front of tongue
with the front skys.
6. Velar
Produced by the back of tongue
With the behind skys.
7. Glottal
Produced without the active use
of the tongue and other parts of the

Manner of articulation
1. Stop

the air stream the releasing it
Suddenly.
2. Fricative
Produced by severaly obstructing
the airflow so as to cause friction.
3. Nassal
