They do this by finding pairs of words that differ by a single sound (through listening‚ not reading). If there are at least two such pairs of words with a different meaning for each member of the pair‚ then it is assumed that the variation is used to distinguish

    In phonetics‚ the airstream mechanism is the method by which airflow is created in the vocal tract. Along with phonation‚ it is one of two mandatory aspects of sound production; without these‚ there can be no speech sound.
