This requires the identification not only the place of articulation but also the manner of articulation which in turn…
Phonetics was first studied in the Indian subcontinent in the 4th century BCE, or even earlier than that the 6th century BCE, with Panini's explanation of the place (where are the sounds produced) and manner (how they are produced) of articulation of consonants. In the late 19th century, the phonogram was invented,…
Pluralizations in mainstream English will not be produced the same in African American English because of voicing generalization. The clusters of the plural forms of words ending in “sk” for example would be reduced to only the consonant “s” (Green, 2002).

One…
production. Each long term goal has 3 short term goals associated in order to provide therapy techniques to increase the likelihood of obtaining these long term expectation. The goals are as follows: Long Term Goal #1: The client will produce all final consonants with 80% accuracy Baseline: 2/20 opportunities: 10% (as of 11/30/16) Short term Goals: 1) The client will produce /p/ in the final position with 80% accuracy 2) The client will produce /t/ in the final position with 80% accuracy …
teacher will provide the class with a one syllable word to rhyme. Teacher or students will provide a matching word to rhyme. Students will bend their knees on the onset (the initial consonant or consonant blend that precedes the vowel and final consonant(s) of the syllable) and jump on the rime (the vowel and final consonant(s)). In the word “sit”, “s” is the onset and “it” is the rime. Students should verbalize the onset (s) while bending and verbalize the rime (it) while jumping. Material…
feel as if it stays constant; he does not change the chorus. Listening to this piece, Jimi’s improvisation is a theme I notice. I have listened to the piece about 4 times and I have not heard any dissonant sounds in the harmony. To me it sounds consonant, all the instruments follow one another. I didn’t…
