What is meant by the field of linguistics? This introductory chapter concerns some dimensions of linguistics‚ which give us a general idea of what linguistics is‚ including the history of linguistic‚ grammar‚ and other disciplines of linguistics study. What does grammar consist of and what are the relationship between one and another? How many languages do human beings have the capacity to acquire? What other studies are made in recent centuries? Each of these aspects are clearly described‚ and other

Crina Herţeg ‚‚Universitatea 1 Decembrie1918”‚ Alba Iulia The Prague Linguistic Circle represented an important moment in the development of phonology‚ structuralism and linguistics in general and it prepared the grounds for research and the subsequent evolution of linguistics. The paper attempts a general view on what The Prague School meant for linguistics and it aims at giving a general survey

Vowels Speech sounds can be classified and described in articulatory‚ acoustic and auditory terms. On the basis of these terms the two broad categories in which the speech sounds in any language can be classified are vowels and consonants. Consonants are best described in articulatory terms because there is some type of closure or narrowing of the air passage to the extent that there is audible friction during the production of that sound. But in case of the production of vowels as there is no closure

How and where consonants are articulated. The phonetic habits of a language. The “values” of sounds. Phonetic patterns. 4.

Virtual Office group: ’Renner‐L2‐linguistics’ Phonetics vs Phonology Phonetics is the study of speech. Articulatory phonetics is a branch which describes how the speech organs (= articulators) are used to produce (= articulate) speech sounds. Phonology is the study of the organization of speech sounds in the minds of speakers. Speech sound production Air stream modified by organs of speech. Modifications have acoustic effects. Production divided into: 1. initiation process

Reading Reaction: The Neurology of Language. Neurolinguistics is important because it studies how the brain process language. In other words‚ it is the study of the neural mechanisms in the human brain which control the comprehension‚ production‚ and acquisition of language. In accordance with the anatomy of the nervous system we can mention terms like neurons‚ cell body‚ axon‚ dendrites‚ and synapse in order to understand how our brain is composed. But the most important part of the nervous

Definition of ‘Timbre’ Timbre is such the term that is so broad to define or to be interpreted. Mainly‚ the term is explained in two slightly different ways in the dictionary – Acoustics/phonetics & Music – however‚ we will consider ‘music’ as a part of phonetic source‚ while I personally agree that music is actually a phonetic‚ since music is what we “hear” through our ears. So‚ ‘timbre’ is the characteristic quality of sound you hear or feel. It depends on the relative strengths (volume/velocity)
