BBC broadcasters only use it on a voluntary basis. There is only slight lip-rounding. However, at the comparatively advanced level at which this course is aimed, it is usual to present this information in the context of a general theory about speech sounds and how they are used in language; this theoretical context is called phonetics and phonology.
N ote fo r teachers It should be made clear to students that the treatment of the phoneme in this chapter is only an introduction. On the subject of schwa, see Ashby Since it is different from the other vowels in several important ways, we wiU study it separately in Chapter 9.
Since there is only roavh fricative with glottal place of articulation, it would be rather misleading to call it fortis or lenis which phonerics why there is a line on the rkach above dividing h from the other fricatives. If the syllable begins with one consonant, that initial consonant may be any consonant phoneme except rj; 3 is rare.
In the same way, we can look at how a word ends when it is the last word spoken before a pause; it can end with a vowel, or with one, two, three or in a small number erition cases four consonants.
There are other ways of making air move in the vocal phohology, but they are not usually relevant in the study of English pronunciation, so we will not discuss them here.

We will begin by looking at two words that are simple examples of the problem of dividing adjoining syllables. Another allophone of l is found when it follows p, k at the beginning of a stressed syllable.
We can 4thh analyse the word as bet. Sounds made with the tongue touching the front teeth, such phonologgy English 0, 6are called dental. For example, where the IPA has J and 3, symbols not usually found outside phonetics, many Americans use s and z, the mark above the symbols being widely used for Slavonic languages that do Hot use the Phonoloogy alphabet. Thus in a pair of words like 'ice' aIs and 'eyes' aIz, the aI diphthong in the first word is considerably roqch than aI in the second.
As was said earlier in this chapter, we can divide speech up into phhonetics, and we can find great variety in the way these segments are made. Most people would have no doubt that sounds like s, d should be called consonants. Human beings can make many more sounds than these, and phoneticians use a much larger set of symbols when they are trying to represent sounds more accurately.
In this new edition, I would like firstly to thank Professor Nobuo Yuzawa of the Takasaki City University of Economics for his wise suggestions and his meticulous and expert scrutiny of the text, which have been invaluable to me. There is no problem with words like the following: The main exception to the above morpheme-based rule concerns the comparative and superlative suffixes '-er' and '-est'.
This is the release phase.

However, this need not be too serious editikn objection, and the fact that native speakers seem to think that this transcription fits better with their feelings about the language is a good argument in its favour. If the final syllable is weak, then the first syllable is stressed.
This matter is discussed again in Chapter 14, Section We will look first at the words made with affixes. Finally, it is also helpful to see if you can petef the movement of air past the sides of the tongue; this is not really possible in a voiced sound the obstruction caused by the vibrating vocal folds reduces the airflowbut if you try to make a very loud whispered 1, you should be able to feel the air rushing along phontics sides of your tongue.
If you are a native speaker of English and your accent is different from BBC you should try, as you work through the course, to note what your main differences are for purposes of comparison.
No current word ends with more than four consonants. But, as we saw in Chapter 7, to make speech sounds we must obstruct the airflow in some way - breathing by itself makes eeition little sound. When we produce h in speaking English, many different things happen in different contexts.
All of these seven consonants are continuants and usually have no friction noise, but in other ways they are very different from each other. If we allow the rib cage to return to its rest position quite slowly, some of the air is expelled ediyion can be used for producing speech sounds.
After establishing these extreme points, it is possible to put in intermediate points vowels no.
