Transcript 00:17 I asked you are ready to look at how to 00:21 represent Chinese in IPA symbols right 00:24 we haven't done that yet right you know 00:27 the reason because we have to learn 00:30 painting well first so as long as there 00:33 are people who still don't quite have 00:35 pinion mastered we're going to hold off 00:37 on that part it's going to be kind of a 00:40 crunch will be very busy then but I 00:41 don't want to start writing Chinese or 00:44 transcribing Mandarin into IPA until you 00:47 have fully mastered Canyon and this is a 00:50 very mechanical exercise if you know 00:52 boku mo fo or bupa mofo whatever you 00:54 want to call it pinion is just not 00:57 difficult there are a few differences 00:58 like with chun is EO for example another 01:01 one i went out another one to watch out 01:03 for is you won't go whoa how do you 01:05 write wall w/e not not wo and you can 01:11 ask sophia about that because that's 01:13 your name right so she knows just look 01:16 at the spelling of her name so you need 01:18 to watch out for those things and 01:19 remember them you need to know them 01:21 completely by heart they need to be 01:22 automated as much as you need to learn a 01:25 language and automate your language 01:27 skills and the other thing is the IPA 01:32 transcription the dictation part that 01:35 one is a separate skill because that one 01:38 is not just learning things from a 01:39 textbook not just memorizing that one 01:41 involves hearing and your brain gets 01:46 what's going on that involves a special 01:49 kind of auditory brain coordination and 01:52 training and practice and some of you 01:54 simply didn't have it before you came to 01:56 this class and I'm not surprised because 01:58 after teaching so many years most Taiwan 02:01 students don't have that skill it's not 02:03 very well developed by the time you get 02:06 here because of the way you are taught 02:08 English in schools I'm thinking about 02:10 this question all the time and this is 02:11 not to be negative about it but the way 02:15 English is taught here is not sound 02:16 based you know that right mainly the way 02:19 you learn English is based on rules 02:22 vocabulary multiple choice tests that's 02:25 the main those are the main features of 02:26 how you learn English 02:28 very blatantly missing is the sound 02:32 component and after all these years of 02:34 thinking about it i'm convinced that 02:36 sound is the basis of learning a 02:38 language well without that sound 02:40 component you're just not going to learn 02:41 it well you will only learn to jin tian 02:42 jian bao so some of you are needing to 02:46 compensate for that yell me boo and it's 02:49 going to take time and practice so you 02:52 will not feel the class if you keep on 02:53 having problems with it but I do hope to 02:55 see progress on the dictations because 02:58 that in the end is the real skill that 03:00 we're after understanding the gia is 03:02 very important but that's only part of 03:05 the class after that you need to be able 03:06 to distinguish through hearing and to 03:09 produce it correctly through speaking 03:10 and if you got less than eighty percent 03:13 on the dictation that means you really 03:16 need to work on those skills more and 03:18 some of you did get a hundred on that 03:19 part too so if it's below 80 you need to 03:23 work on it more and there are some 03:25 practice dictations on the website that 03:27 you're all aware of right do they help 03:30 or not so much are they helpful somewhat 03:34 helpful I think there are a bit improved 03:37 from before because before I had 03:38 unreleased stops at the end and 03:40 listening to the recording to myself I 03:42 couldn't hear a lot of the words clearly 03:44 so I made mostly release stops at the 03:47 end and now I think it's more useful 03:49 it's clearer if you've already done them 03:53 do them again maybe you've memorized the 03:55 words but in any case use that for 03:57 practice this is how an S sounds this is 04:00 how an a sound sounds this is how it 04:02 sounds this is how it does sounds 04:04 because those are the two main problems 04:06 in those simple dictation vowel quality 04:08 and voice voiceless distinction and 04:12 stops those are the two main things and 04:13 also alveolar and velar distinctions in 04:16 nasal so that's a third thing those 04:18 three things are the biggest problems 04:20 that I have observed observed this is 04:23 just tyy but I thought you might be 04:25 interested i think i will be going to 04:28 georgia again this July to sing I love 04:31 to sing Georgian choral music and 04:33 there's an opportunity that I'm probably 04:35 going to apply for it and I thought you 04:37 might be interested in my Georgian 04:39 textbook my Georgian language 04:41 but you can see it's very worn and beat 04:42 up because I studied very hard from it 04:46 but it was really hard for me to learn 04:47 because George is unrelated to any 04:49 language at all it's not related to any 04:51 language we know of it's only related to 04:53 other George and dialects as far as we 04:55 know so I found it really difficult to 04:58 learn vocabulary because everything was 05:00 unfamiliar there were just a few words 05:02 like who neither seat safety what does 05:05 that sound like yeah Scola Scola school 05:12 ya basta basta ya post post office today 05:19 pony all right those words I could 05:23 handle I remember those really fast but 05:26 as for the others it really took a lot 05:27 of effort so I'm going back to my 05:29 Georgian textbook now and it's like 05:30 candy it's a lot of fun now so after 05:32 suffering the first time it's now a lot 05:35 of fun i'm going to try and learn it 05:37 better this time so this is that just in 05:43 case you're interested start with Sophie 05:45 so that was booked sharing and now would 05:48 you please get out your hand copied 05:51 rules for English consonant allophones 05:54 we're just going to read through them 05:55 quickly I will go over the explanations 05:58 in the middle and before just to make 06:03 sure you understand everything now just 06:06 a quick show of hands after you having 06:10 now copied them all by hand are there 06:13 still things that are not so clear just 06:15 be honest I'm not going to count this 06:16 against you I just want to know if after 06:18 copying the rules by hand there's still 06:20 things you're still not very clear on 06:21 please raise your hand if there's still 06:23 a couple things not so clear just one I 06:25 don't believe it's just one two okay 06:28 that's I like honesty here right so 06:31 there are still things you don't 06:32 understand you are responsible for 06:34 asking and to keep on asking until you 06:38 get a completely satisfactory 06:40 explanation that makes it clear to you 06:42 okay everybody please ask until it's 06:44 clear and you'll notice that some of the 06:46 number references are wrong right yeah 06:49 and that that is a problem 06:51 more than 10 years old it's a very old 06:52 problem and they still haven't fixed it 06:54 and you can see that these are people 06:56 who don't really care about all this 06:58 indexing and this busy work because 07:00 that's one weakness it's not a serious 07:03 one but it's one weakness of this book 07:05 and it's been that way almost since I 07:07 started using it as I can remember 07:08 because with each new addition they 07:10 change substantial things things that 07:13 have to do with content but they often 07:16 forget to do the mechanics so we're 07:19 going to go over the rules whose turn is 07:23 it we know okay so we'll have you read 07:27 the rule but I'll just kind of go over 07:29 the stuff in between it says you're a 07:31 good way of summarizing and slightly 07:33 extending or the other thing I wanted to 07:35 say that I didn't quite finish I started 07:37 but didn't finish did you find that by 07:40 writing out the rules by hand even if 07:42 you didn't understand everything that 07:43 you understand it better now than you 07:45 did before did writing it out by hand 07:48 help you absorb some of the stuff we 07:50 covered this is what other students have 07:53 told me so I've done this I think ever 07:54 since I started teaching this class and 07:56 the students have told me now I get it 07:58 better because you have to slow down 08:00 slowly absorb the content as you're 08:03 writing it out it slows you down right 08:05 so if there are still things you don't 08:07 understand we'll clear them up now so a 08:10 good way of summarizing and slightly 08:12 extending all that we have said about 08:14 English consonants so far is to list a 08:17 set of formal statements when we talk 08:21 about formal statements in linguistics 08:23 that means we have a very clear rule we 08:26 just write out and explicit a clear and 08:28 explicit rule and you should know 08:32 slightly off the topic of phonetics but 08:34 we're very relevant to linguistics that 08:37 linguistics you can pretty much divided 08:39 into two schools it's sort of like 08:41 Democrats Republicans in the US or the 08:43 green and the blue in Taiwan they just 08:45 have different ways of thinking and when 08:48 one side thinks the other side just has 08:51 wrong thinking each side thinks that 08:53 about the other now some people are a 08:55 little more open-minded and flexible 08:56 than others some people are very radical 08:59 and very partisan partisan means Phaeton 09:03 pi find really annoyed about pie you 09:04 need to be aware of that that there are 09:06 still wars going on in linguistics now 09:09 you're all students of literature are 09:10 you aware of a similar kind of dichotomy 09:13 in literature as well or not a lot of 09:19 you are seniors already you should be 09:20 aware of this because there's the same 09:22 thing in literature so I'm inclined to 09:24 think that it's just two different kinds 09:28 of brains we all have the same brain but 09:30 some brains seem to be wired to think 09:32 one way and others think the other way 09:34 what are the two different parties in 09:38 literature anybody who's a lip piercing 09:43 if your lip person you wouldn't be here 09:46 right okay now what are the two 09:49 different ways of viewing literature 09:54 anybody jerrell okay you're a ling 09:59 person yeah Karen 10:05 I louder please see you after um 10:15 Oh 10:20 oh okay that's sort of in the right 10:22 direction basically it's the people who 10:24 are most interested in linguistic theory 10:26 and the people who care more about non 10:30 linguistic sorry literary literary 10:32 theory and those who really care about 10:34 the literary canon the cannon is a it's 10:39 a set of very basic widely acknowledged 10:44 classics the books that are really 10:46 really respected and viewed as the basis 10:51 of literature because there's such good 10:52 books they're written so well and 10:54 they're so important good ideas etc 10:56 that's the literary canon that's the set 10:58 of books that if you study literature if 11:01 you claim to have any knowledge of a 11:03 culture at all you should have read the 11:05 literary canon of that culture including 11:08 for example for English literature 11:10 obviously Shakespeare the Bible Jane 11:14 Austen Dickens they're all part of the 11:16 literary canon those are the most basic 11:19 the most important works of literature 11:21 and people who tend to the literary 11:23 canon side they are very much into the 11:26 texts themselves to appreciating 11:28 literature enjoying it x.x placated 11:31 literature etc the people on the theory 11:33 side are more interested in theories and 11:36 structure now have we heard something 11:38 like this before in our study of 11:40 phonetics this kind of a dichotomy 11:45 you've just taken a test on it 11:52 that's right that's a similar kind of 11:55 dichotomy isn't it with phonetics we're 11:58 interested in every single thing that 12:00 happens every detail that we observe 12:02 we're just very interested in at some 12:04 point we get exhausted and then we 12:06 stopped but we're just interested in any 12:09 kind of detail we see but the phonology 12:11 SAR more interested in patterns 12:15 structure and systems right rules so 12:19 that's a similar kind of dichotomy 12:21 phonetics phonology in literature it's 12:26 the literary canon people and the 12:29 literary theory people and in 12:31 linguistics in general it's also 12:33 linguistic theory and the formalists and 12:35 then the rest of us are sometimes called 12:39 called what are we called non formal vez 12:42 sometimes sometimes they say structural 12:45 is there are many different names for us 12:48 we don't have a set name because it 12:50 includes everything that is not 12:51 formalist and informal is linguistics 12:53 it's more like phonology and it's more 12:55 like literary theory we're interested in 12:57 systems rules logic how things fit 13:00 together that's literary sorry 13:03 linguistic theory and the non formalist 13:07 the structural is they do everything 13:09 else and they're more interested the 13:12 coral it or the counterpart of the 13:15 literary canon and linguistics is data 13:18 we're more interested in data the theory 13:23 people want to organize the data we've 13:25 got what they hope that things will fit 13:27 into the rules that they find they're 13:28 really interested in those rules and 13:29 structure the people with the data just 13:32 go crazy over data we want to get lots 13:33 of data obviously you have to organize 13:35 data so data alone is not enough 13:38 structure alone is not enough you need 13:40 both okay just so you're aware of that 13:43 but this all started because of this 13:45 particular word formal okay so formal 13:51 statements that means we make very clear 13:52 and explicit rules about what happens 13:55 the problem is some of these are not 13:57 watertight they're not watertight 14:00 there's this famous saying that says all 14:02 grammars leak that means they're always 14:04 exception 14:05 and we have exceptions here some of the 14:07 rules are not watertight they're not 14:10 they don't describe the whole situation 14:12 okay so it says that these rules are 14:16 simply descriptions of language behavior 14:17 they are not the kind of rules that 14:19 prescribe what people ought to do this 14:21 goes off on another tangent what is 14:24 prescriptive linguistics we usually say 14:28 things like prescriptive grammar for 14:34 example prescriptive grammar what is 14:37 that what is prescriptive grammar that's 14:45 telling people that they should talk 14:47 like this and they shouldn't talk like 14:48 that for example I told you about my 14:50 third grade teacher I think who said not 14:54 just her a number of them said that 14:55 don't say can I go you have to say may I 14:58 go that's the kind of grammar we often 15:01 learn in that in the states we learn 15:02 prescriptive grammar they're trying to 15:04 correct what they think are mistakes in 15:05 the speech of a lot of people that's 15:08 prescriptive you're telling you what to 15:10 do they think that can I go is not 15:13 grammatically correct they want to fix 15:14 it they tell you not to use eight can't 15:17 comment no good etc okay that's 15:22 prescriptive and he's saying here that 15:24 these are not prescriptive rules they're 15:26 just descriptions of what people 15:27 actually do like most fauna tutions we 15:31 would not presume to be arbiters 15:33 arbiters are what do we call those what 15:41 are arbiters there are people who decide 15:44 when there's a dispute if people can't 15:48 agree then you go to a third person to 15:50 try and resolve something that means we 15:52 make the decision he said we're not 15:53 going to do that and we're not going to 15:56 say it's as arbiters of fashion Shoshana 15:59 what is good and what is not but on the 16:04 other hand phonetics it's a part of an 16:05 exact scientific discipline because 16:07 we're describing physical phenomena and 16:10 that means we should be able to 16:12 formalize descriptions of speech in 16:13 terms of a set of precise statements 16:15 we're going to try to make them precise 16:18 and Peter ladder foger also once said 16:20 you don't really know anything until you 16:22 can express it in a number and he used 16:26 to study physics he was very good at 16:28 physics and math so he said you have to 16:31 be able to express something with a 16:32 number before you really really know it 16:34 so here we're going to try to be more 16:36 precise even if we don't have all 16:38 numbers for everything all right given 16:41 the discussion of consonant allophones 16:43 in this chapter we can give a number of 16:45 descriptive rules one of these deals 16:48 with consonant length okay our first 16:50 reader number one consonants are longer 16:55 with at the end of a phrase all right 16:57 that's our first rule that means if we 17:00 have come to applause a break in the 17:02 discourse tingle in the dhitha then the 17:08 consonants are going to be longer you 17:10 wait teen teen the default your income 17:13 genkai far away is that right so that's 17:16 our first rule you can see the 17:17 application of this statement by 17:19 comparing the consonants in words such 17:21 as bib did Don and nod use wave surfer 17:27 to make a recording then play the 17:29 recording backward are the first two 17:32 words the same backward and forward do 17:34 the third and fourth words sound like 17:36 each other when played in Reverse well 17:38 we play the word lull in reverse you 17:39 know that if it's towards the end we're 17:42 going to lengthen it we naturally 17:43 lengthen things at the end that's all 17:45 it's saying okay and why don't you let's 17:49 let's go on to another reader for rule 17:50 two will change person after person 17:56 most of the aliphatic rules apply to 17:59 only selected groups of consonants so 18:02 we're going to just talk about a certain 18:04 group of consonants at a time ok Alex 18:13 2x2 voiceless stops okay don't make it 18:16 too long a lot of time he's do that 18:18 spoofs a voiceless it's voiceless make 18:21 it really short voiceless voiceless 18:23 stops that is what is IE mean it s Latin 18:29 two words ID second where does EST it s 18:31 that means that is it is that is ptk are 18:39 aspirated when they are syllable initial 18:42 as in words such as pip test kick very 18:48 good I think we'll stay with you for the 18:49 next 12 so everyone knows this rule this 18:51 one's really easy right so if it's at 18:54 the beginning of a word then we aspirate 18:57 the voiceless stops okay syllable 19:01 initial not just the beginning of a word 19:03 also the beginning of a syllable but the 19:05 one at the beginning of the word will be 19:07 aspirated more it's not in the rule but 19:09 that will happen so if it's also the 19:11 beginning of a soul but it's later in 19:13 the word it will be aspirated less good 19:15 continue Alex three options stops and 19:20 fricatives classified as voiced that is 19:25 EDG but but the good 19:33 gee our voice through only a small part 19:38 of the articulation when they are when 19:42 they occur at the end okay again when 19:45 they occur no D at the end ya know when 19:49 they occur at the end i still hate it's 19:51 probably a tortilla Lincoln and then I 19:54 won't hear a deep when they occur at 19:56 when their current at the end of an 19:59 utterance or before a voiceless sound 20:03 listen to the when you say try to 20:07 improve and that when you say at two 20:11 okay so if it's at the end of an 20:14 utterance it will only be voiced halfway 20:16 through and if it comes right before a 20:19 voiceless sound it also will only be 20:21 partly voice voiced in the first half 20:22 the second half probably not voice so 20:24 listen carefully improve everybody you 20:29 hear that at the end no voicing their 20:32 and the second one is add to add we're 20:36 already turning off the voice thing to 20:37 get ready for tea so add to everyone 20:41 yeah the ad it's going to be cut off 20:44 rather than making it fully voice as it 20:47 would be if there were a vile next for 20:49 example added and did there's no turning 20:52 off of the voice thing then good okay I 20:55 think we can switch now sherry okay so 20:59 call boy stops in the number please on 21:01 number four yeah so called voiced stops 21:06 and affricates but gotcha are voiceless 21:09 when syllable in the show except when 21:12 immediately preceded by a boy sound as 21:15 in a voiced sound a voiced sound as in a 21:19 day as compared with this day use wave 21:22 surfer to listen to the stay part of 21:26 this part a part of this day the state 21:30 the stay part of this day does this 21:33 sound like stay all right and the answer 21:35 is yes their point is at the beginning 21:39 of an utterance if we've just had a 21:42 pause and we're starting a new utter 21:44 then it says so-called voice stops in 21:48 Africa underlying leads IDs hung they 21:51 are definitely voiced no arguing about 21:53 that but I belgium on the surface many 21:56 of them are not voiced when they are 21:59 very often they are not voiced when 22:01 they're at the beginning of an utterance 22:02 so we silly like we say things like boy 22:04 does go judge no voice thing instead of 22:08 saying boy does go judge and note that 22:12 Africa's tend to behave a little more 22:14 like stops than F than fricatives 22:16 affricates they tend to behave more like 22:18 stops they are both they have the 22:21 character characteristics of both but 22:23 they're a little bit more like stops 22:24 good continue again sherry number five 22:28 voiceless stops but are unless porated 22:32 after us in words such as speed a speed 22:40 try fe w and it rhymes with that word 22:44 how do you say feww a few right oh good 22:50 nice with you do skew good alright so 22:54 spew we definitely have the use sound in 22:57 American but how about the next word we 23:02 don't usually say stew that sounds 23:05 pretty funny we say stew soup and the 23:08 Brits they wouldn't say steel either 23:10 they would say Stu Stu they would have 23:14 application there and force to we've 23:18 dropped it for slu we've also dropped 23:21 the years sound so why is there a 23:23 difference spew we can't drop that you 23:25 sound we can't say spoon cebu Toyota 23:27 there's no word spoo except on Halloween 23:29 maybe his spook I don't know boo I but 23:32 anyways it had there has to be a year 23:34 therefore spew but for stew and skew 23:38 okay I thought it was slow sorry no 23:41 Diane t all right it's skew the third 23:43 one is skewed skew means to what lambda 23:46 talk I light new joint function that's 23:48 skew to skew the results that means to 23:51 distort the results so we say spew and 23:54 we say stew and then we say skew again 23:57 what 23:58 the rule that determines that it's not 24:00 an airtight rule again not watertight or 24:03 airtight why can we get rid of the year 24:06 in stew but not in spew and skew there's 24:13 a there's a good way to explain it it 24:15 has to do it fell to the zoo if you 24:17 remember some people didn't understand 24:19 that analogy one person asked me after 24:21 class it has to do with the belt o'toole 24:28 anybody explain 24:32 any any idea 24:41 with e.t okay not just tea but remember 24:46 i work on swallow without wearing my 24:48 reading glasses I thought it was SlOO 24:49 SlOO is Slade of what you should SAS SAS 24:53 again day slay SL a why gorgeous a slew 24:58 he slew ten men whatever you can say 25:01 slew instead of slough we wouldn't say 25:03 slew at all so L also has the same rule 25:07 you can drop the year and it's for the 25:08 same reason so it's right and he's right 25:11 that it has to do with the tea but it's 25:12 bigger than just tea it includes al 25:16 veelers because the largest number of 25:19 sounds of consonants in English RL 25:21 veelers that's the biggest group they 25:23 have the most clout CL 0 UT clout that 25:26 means tons of something you gently they 25:29 have the biggest clout the most clout 25:32 the biggest influence so an L T those 25:37 words will often lose their youth after 25:40 them if there's a vowel after them and 25:42 they originally had yeah okay so 25:47 voiceless stops are unaspirated after s 25:50 I think everybody's got that now no 25:51 problem and we just that's a big part of 25:53 your pot assignment and since I 25:57 mentioned clap just to tell you very 25:58 quickly it's three words per file there 26:02 are six groups six counts of words each 26:04 one's a separate file so six files with 26:08 three words each and then in the seventh 26:10 file cut off the S that's your seventh 26:12 okay so seven files all together okay 26:17 let's read the next rule number six 26:23 voiceless ops ruins put two 26:29 are longer than the corresponding voice 26:33 options but the Jew the Jew when at the 26:41 end of a syllable ok n and and and at 26:46 the end of a syllable good everybody 26:48 watch and some of you are still saying 26:53 and at the end of a syllable should be 26:56 in if you put your hand here my 26:57 experience so far this semester is 26:59 everybody gets it immediately no 27:02 mistakes every one end and not just 27:05 doing this won't do it yeah chances this 27:08 works and perfect good okay mm-hmm and 27:13 so voiceless abstinence put two coats 27:17 that are all longer and somebody asked 27:19 on into you phonetics on facebook why 27:23 they would be longer it's because you 27:26 need to imagine that there was a word 27:28 that starts with a consonant right after 27:30 it so if we have for example for example 27:36 for example top dog top dog top home in 27:42 Tingo nigga she didn't Tom but if it's 27:45 been for example rob Peter rob Peter 27:50 home in teen doing this again being me 27:52 on my time and there's voicing and part 27:55 of it so top dog but rob Peter developed 27:59 one okay that's how it works is that 28:02 clear you have to imagine that right 28:04 after that word that ends in a consonant 28:07 there's another word that starts with a 28:09 consonant and that will show you how 28:11 long that so wait applause is it could 28:13 be an empty pause or could be a filled 28:16 applause with some boys sing in it like 28:17 rob Peter Robin it's got some voicing in 28:21 it is everybody clear on what I just 28:24 said is there anybody who didn't get it 28:26 please raise your hand I want to make 28:28 sure it's clear because it's a good 28:30 question so I think that should be 28:35 pretty clear so that applies both to 28:37 stops and to fricatives and after 28:40 cuss words exemplifying this rule our 28:45 cup as opposed to a cap sorry cap as 28:49 opposed to cab and back as opposed to 28:51 bag try contrasting these words and 28:54 sentences and you may be able to hear 28:56 the differences more clearly okay next 28:58 seven number seven the approximate Z the 29:03 approximate what or who are at least 29:07 partially voiceless when they occurred 29:10 after an initial put as in play dewayne 29:16 q hmm play to win uh-huh play 20 q good 29:22 and we use that little empty circle 29:25 underneath the approximate to show that 29:28 it's voiceless and remember what we said 29:30 I think in last class when do we usually 29:32 use that circle because there are all 29:35 kinds of voiceless sounds we don't write 29:37 V with a little circle under it for the 29:39 puss ound right or the sound we could 29:42 use it no not in spot we wouldn't use it 29:44 there either we don't normally use that 29:46 unless what yes unless we expect it to 29:52 be voiced usually when it was originally 29:54 voiced and we expect it to be voiced but 29:56 it's not then we can use this symbol to 29:58 show that it is d voiced this is due to 30:02 the overlapping of the gesture required 30:04 for aspiration with the voicing gesture 30:06 required for the approximate so we have 30:12 aspiration from the first voiceless stop 30:15 that aspiration is sort of extinguishing 30:18 the voicing I tracy lee jung and note 30:22 that the formal statement says at least 30:24 partially voiceless but the 30:27 transcription marks that marks the 30:29 approximants as being completely 30:30 voiceless so they may be partly voiced 30:32 so that just tells you to salsa Wolfen 30:35 so mashonda okay conflicts between 30:40 statements and transcriptions of this 30:42 kind will be further discussed below or 30:44 discuss further below let's go on next 30:46 one D 30:49 number nine number eight right the 30:53 gestures for console cute of stops over 30:56 left so that stops are unexploded when 31:01 they occur before another stop another 31:04 sad before another stop in words such as 31:09 a pet I n rub rub rub rub everybody act 31:16 instead of saying apt you could say that 31:18 it's pretty awful with a microphone I 31:20 know abot you could say that but we 31:23 almost never do it's usually unexploded 31:25 because there's another consonant after 31:28 it so if we have two consonants two 31:30 stops in a row then the first one will 31:32 generally be unexploded the second one 31:34 probably will be too if it's at the end 31:36 of an utterance and rob a rubbed rather 31:38 everyone rubbed we don't say rub Buddha 31:41 rabid there's naka de choix there rubbed 31:44 and nine in many accents in english of 31:48 english syllable final our syllable 31:53 final syllable final put took are 31:56 accompanied by an overlapping glottal 31:59 stop gesture us in pronunciations of tip 32:05 pits kick okay as tip hitch kick so tip 32:13 we got a little creek in there hit kick 32:16 okay I'm exaggerating just so you can 32:19 hear it so it says here this is another 32:23 case for transcription cannot fully 32:25 describe what is going on and that is 32:27 true of transcriptions in general you 32:29 can see so far that he keeps spoko 32:31 saying well it says voiceless but maybe 32:33 it's only partially voiceless right so 32:36 given that you would in vallco the other 32:38 day now I want you to think how do most 32:41 people learn how to pronounce a word 32:42 they don't know in Taiwan not you people 32:45 here who've had this training but just 32:47 somebody who wants to know how to 32:48 pronounce an English word what do they 32:50 do oh hey guess yeah that's the first 32:53 thing I'll do which is not bad because 32:56 you can't always run to the dictionary 32:57 that's true but if they really want to 32:59 know what do they think it means to 33:01 really know the pronunciation look it up 33:06 in the dictionary and use the kk symbols 33:09 now do you understand why kk symbols I'm 33:13 not criticizing kk kk is great i think 33:15 we should keep it but do you understand 33:17 why that's not enough because kk is list 33:20 is missing so much information we're 33:22 giving you a lot more here and we're 33:24 still apologizing but kk has a lot yet a 33:26 lot less information for example do they 33:29 tell you that the tea is tapped in water 33:32 and little do they tell you that no so 33:35 kk is missing lots and lots and lots and 33:37 lots of information things that we don't 33:40 describe here either you need to get by 33:42 hearing and that goes back to what i was 33:43 saying you need to learn a language by 33:45 hearing and that's what's missing okay 33:48 one you mean number ten in many accents 33:54 of english to is replaced by a glottal 33:57 stop when you curse before an a villain 34:00 a so silly every there no not really 34:04 alveolar I'm feeling okay so in the sim 34:07 worth paying same word as in bidden what 34:11 bill hat look at it carefully look at 34:14 the symbol the bill is not what we need 34:18 here be yeah that's right ok B & B & B 34:25 yeah usually if I'm saying it slowly i'm 34:28 going to put a tea in there I guess I 34:30 didn't do that paragraph before I'll 34:31 come back to that so normally i would 34:34 put an unreleased t their feet hmm if 34:36 I'm saying it really clearly and slowly 34:39 b/c my tongue eat beat hmm everyone 34:43 beaten but I don't have to have that tea 34:46 they're beaten be hmm okay but you have 34:50 to have a really clear strong glottal 34:52 stop they're beaten 34:55 right okay oh wait we're not done with 34:59 this yet first of all I need to go back 35:01 to that paragraph i skipped we were 35:03 talking about that Creek before or at 35:06 the same time as a final stop final 35:09 voiceless stop here it says it doesn't 35:11 apply to all varieties of English for a 35:13 long time I did not know what they were 35:14 talking about I said I must not have it 35:16 and I don't think I do usually I don't 35:18 usually do this but I can do it I 35:20 finally got it so pick pick if you've 35:24 got pit if you cut it off and you're at 35:27 you're Gladys pick pick then you've got 35:30 the glottal stop there because I just 35:33 usually don't do that I don't think I 35:35 don't do that as far as I know but I get 35:38 it now and it so he says it doesn't 35:40 apply to all varieties of English when I 35:41 saw that I felt a little better because 35:43 at the beginning I really didn't know 35:44 what he was talking about some people do 35:46 not have any glottal stops in these 35:48 circumstances and others have global 35:50 stats completely replacing some or all 35:52 of the voiceless stops but usually that 35:56 doesn't happen except with T or before a 36:00 word starting with another consonant is 36:02 possible sometimes but usually it's T in 36:05 any case even for those who simply add a 36:08 glottal stop this statement is not 36:10 completely accurate many people will 36:13 have a glottal stop at the end of cat 36:15 and phrases such as that's a cat cat 36:18 they've got one there or the cat sat on 36:22 the mat but they will not have this 36:24 elephone of tea in the cat eats fish or 36:29 the cat eats fish if it's an American 36:31 cat eats we've got a tab there for 36:32 example and we don't need a glottal stop 36:34 just do you understand this paragraph ok 36:37 if you don't please just read your hand 36:39 please do not be shy there is no shame 36:42 remember the the old saying is there's 36:46 no stupid question except the one you 36:48 don't ask that's a stupid question if 36:50 you have a question don't ask it that's 36:52 stupid but no question is stupid usually 36:54 the more basic a question is the more 36:55 important it is because if it's a really 36:58 basic question it challenges assumptions 37:00 and whatever happens whenever you go 37:02 deeply into a subject you get further 37:05 and further 37:06 from your initial assumptions right 37:07 neither to live dnd Jessica each other 37:10 so we need a G to the Joshua the more 37:13 deeply you go the less you will go back 37:15 to those basic beginning assumptions do 37:17 you see what I'm saying and the further 37:19 away you get from those the less likely 37:21 you are to challenge them but some of 37:23 them could be wrong some of them may be 37:27 quite wrong what will happen is some 37:31 student especially a freshman they will 37:33 ask a very basic question because they 37:35 really don't get it and suddenly it 37:37 makes everybody think and challenge and 37:40 challenge those initial assumptions so 37:42 never be ashamed of a basic question 37:44 they're often the most important and 37:46 they're the ones that really make us 37:47 think the hardest things we forget to 37:49 think about alright so we already did 37:54 tea and glottal stops and this one it's 37:59 often replaced by a glottal stop when we 38:01 have an alveolar nasal in the same word 38:03 we call those two sounds which have the 38:07 same place of articulation we call that 38:10 home organic home organic remember a 38:14 home organic nasal h0 MO our GA and I 38:19 see home organic same place of 38:21 articulation ok and 11 number 11 nasos 38:28 our syllabic at the end of a word went 38:31 immediately after an abstract as in 38:34 lettin Kadim very good leaden has them 38:39 usually they are syllabic chasm I have 38:43 no vowel their chasm I could take Hassim 38:45 some people say chasm so I could have a 38:48 vowel their legend is ok but usually we 38:51 fight we say ledin with nasal plosion 38:55 nasal plosion ok mmm note that we cannot 38:58 say that nasals become syllabic where 39:01 whenever they occur at the end of a word 39:03 or yeah and after consonant the nasals 39:08 in kiln film are not syllabic in most 39:12 accents of english kiln is y'all just at 39:15 all how I only nigga 39:17 and film film do we have an extra 39:22 syllable with the M film how many 39:26 syllables one however some people say 39:29 fill them it's not standard but you will 39:32 hear it filem my father used to say it 39:34 as a joke okay he just thought it was 39:36 funny so he would say I'll go get the 39:38 film just for fun okay he'd say a lot of 39:40 funny things for fun okay and we can 39:45 however state are real describing the 39:48 syllabus it e syllabus it e is a good 39:50 word just how to NJ sing the Scylla 39:53 bisset e of old by saying simply number 39:56 12 CB number 12 lateral L is syllabic at 40:02 the end of the word when immediately 40:04 after a consonant alright but we have a 40:06 trouble we have trouble with that don't 40:08 we how do you say new heights it yeah is 40:11 it syllabic know so do we have problems 40:14 with this rule and this this problem is 40:17 also more than ten years old it's 40:19 probably much longer than ten years 40:21 because this book goes back to the 50s I 40:23 think so this this one has not really 40:26 been sorted out yet it's still not 40:28 really correct we will use these as 40:30 rules of thumb we want it to be really 40:32 rigorous rigorous is y ng that's a 40:34 really good word to no rigorous we want 40:36 to be rigorous but all most of the rules 40:39 leak most of them have exceptions 40:41 they're not they don't describe all of 40:44 the eventualities all the possibilities 40:46 all right and this statement summarizes 40:50 the fact that Lula is syllabic not only 40:52 after stops and fricatives as in paddle 40:55 whistle and it's not syllabic for me 40:57 there paddle whistle right if it were 41:01 syllabic it would be Pat bull with 41:03 school it would be it would have lateral 41:07 with full whistle Pabu cool what's that 41:12 called lateral everybody it's the same 41:19 word as I asked for a minute ago with 41:20 nasal lateral plosion right if they had 41:25 lateral plosion then they would be 41:27 syllabic because there's 41:29 intervening vowel no schwa there but in 41:32 my speech they are not syllabic because 41:36 there's a vowel there they're just a 41:37 separate syllable if it's a separate 41:39 syllable with the vowel we don't say 41:40 that's a syllabic L so this doesn't 41:42 apply to my English it does apply to the 41:46 way Peter latta fo'get spoke papule 41:48 whistle all right whistle no vowel but 41:53 also after nasals as in kennel channel 41:58 are those syllabic else for me kennel 42:00 channel no so would have to be candle 42:04 candle and I want to throw in here 42:07 before we go on how many of you have 42:10 studied some German a few of you German 42:14 is full of this kind of pronunciation so 42:18 for example a guten morgen is good 42:22 morning right now G and n are they home 42:25 organic GNN no they're not one is velar 42:29 one is alveolar but this is the way 42:32 Germans usually say guten morgen guten 42:35 morgen guten mo yeah just about anything 42:42 ending in a nasal in German with a with 42:44 a AB strength before it with an abstract 42:46 before it will turn into a syllabic 42:49 nasal at the end it's very very cool 42:51 bein in German it's interesting because 42:53 I've had German students before I Qaeda 42:55 and not not wiring just plain old 42:57 Germans and they're usually unaware of 43:00 these rules first of all they will say 43:02 oh we don't do that in German and then 43:04 they just think about me go hey we do it 43:06 all the time that's what happened just 43:09 like when we said that final voice stops 43:13 in German our d voice they're not voiced 43:16 at all for example the word for bath 43:22 what's that one when English it's bad 43:26 but this is German but and what is the 43:30 decent life is it voice or not no so 43:33 final voiced consonants final voice 43:36 stops and German are not voiced they 43:39 look like their voice they were 43:40 originally voiced we assume but they are 43:42 not voiced and i had a german student 43:44 who protested he said no no no we 43:46 pronounced those I said how do you say 43:47 this word he said but oh he said uh yeah 43:52 ok he suddenly was confronted with the 43:55 way he really speaks so that has 43:56 happened to me a number of times with 43:58 different rules with Germans they're not 44:00 really aware of their language either 44:02 just like I told you things about 44:03 Chinese you didn't know before like with 44:04 ye etc so don't feel bad the Germans do 44:07 it too ok um I'd like to get through 44:11 these before you run off to your break 44:13 let's let's kind of push through so we 44:17 have words like barrel 44:21 kennel channel barrel none of these for 44:25 me are syllabic I have a schwa on all of 44:27 them snarl in theory should be syllabic 44:30 snarl snarl but how many syllables does 44:34 it sound like to your ears snarl snarl 44:40 does anybody here too ok to me as the 44:46 speaker of this particular variety it 44:48 sounds like to snarl snarl I hear schwa 44:51 so that's true with a lot of words but 44:55 not all with different vowels will be 44:56 different girl girl that's pretty much 44:59 clearly only one syllable for me all 45:02 right when it is not part of the vowel 45:04 or is like in most forms of American 45:06 English in that it too can be syllabic 45:09 when it occurs at the end of a word and 45:10 after a consonant as in I'm going to 45:15 have to put on my glasses because I keep 45:16 mistaking letters here just a minute ok 45:19 sabre sabre is a kind of gee gee gee you 45:25 know that one anyway saber razor hammer 45:30 Taylor you could say them a syllabic or 45:33 you could call them syllabic because her 45:35 has are from beginning to the end in 45:38 it's the only vowel the avowal when we 45:42 have our coloring the r starts 45:43 immediately at the beginning and is and 45:45 it goes all the way through if it is 45:47 another vowel like oh like 44 chim in 45:53 mayo are but the earth sound the schwa 45:56 that has are all the way through 45:58 everybody see what I'm saying so in 46:01 these cases you can say that it's a 46:02 syllabic are if you want to because the 46:05 vowel and the AR are inseparable one 46:08 turns a phone book haida neon suppose 46:10 the earth because its uses those a 46:11 tongue should jing jinga so we could 46:13 call that also a syllabic are if we 46:18 introduce a new term liquid and we've 46:20 already had that it's called wet in 46:22 chinese do in which is used simply as a 46:26 cover term for the consonance oh and 46:27 earth we may rephrase the statement in 46:30 12 and say 12 a sane person number 12 a 46:33 the liquids are syllabic at the end of a 46:37 word when immediately after a consonant 46:40 but we have to remember this is very 46:41 problematic there are many many 46:43 exceptions and it depends on your 46:44 variety of English a different dialect 46:46 will do different things so it's almost 46:48 impossible to generalize the next 46:50 statement also applies more to American 46:51 English than to British English it 46:53 accounts for the tea in fatty data but 46:56 note that these are not the only context 46:58 in which these changes occur this is not 47:00 simply a change that affects after a 47:02 stressed vowel and before it an 47:03 unstressed one in that too between two 47:06 unstressed vowels as in divinity is also 47:09 affected however not all cases of tow 47:12 between vowels change in this way the 47:14 tub in attack is voiceless we don't say 47:18 a back because what we say a tack we 47:23 don't say adapt the till is between two 47:26 vowels but why don't we say a bad 47:28 because the second syllable is stressed 47:31 so it doesn't work there and I also say 47:34 fricative I don't say forget it I 47:36 suppose it's possible but it sounds I i 47:38 say fricative I don't have a rule for it 47:41 but this rule is really hard to write in 47:44 a really comprehensive way and took 47:46 after another consonant for example in 47:48 hasty and captive is also voiceless 47:50 listen hasty captive captive like 47:55 fricative justly young but fricative 47:58 look s africa there's a vowel so this 48:01 thing is very messy it's messy the rules 48:04 really don't cover everything english 48:06 speakers have a very similar 48:08 articulatory gesture and words 48:09 containing done in similar circumstances 48:12 such as daddy and man and many the first 48:16 of these words these two words could 48:18 well be transcribed as daddy if we say 48:21 it quickly we're not lengthening this 48:23 the double D there it is a tap daddy 48:26 daddy but in theory we could we could 48:30 lengthen it if we wanted to daddy daddy 48:33 cicada but waters bukhari though so on 48:38 the surface we may have a tap but 48:41 underneath it's still a d but in water 48:43 underneath it's a tea but that's a tap 48:46 deep down okay the second has the same 48:49 sound except that it's nasalized so we 48:52 could do this this is unusual and I 48:54 don't encourage it but just 48:55 theoretically you can take a tap symbol 48:57 and put a bowl out how over it which 48:59 means nasalization so if it's a 49:03 nasalized tap then we get many right we 49:07 could do that in a narrow transcription 49:09 to show that the end is really really a 49:11 short tap it's a very short touching of 49:15 the tip of the tongue to the alveolar 49:16 Ridge nasalization is shown by the 49:17 diacritic Tildy over a symbol the 49:20 following statement accounts for all 49:22 these facts I'm 13 next year I'm Cathy k 49:26 13 alveolar stops become voice taps when 49:29 they occur between two vowels second of 49:31 which is unstressed alright we've 49:33 already talked about that many speakers 49:34 of American English require a similar 49:36 rule to describe a sequence of an 49:38 alveolar nasal followed by a stop in the 49:41 words in words such as painter and 49:43 splinter the t is lost and a nasal tap 49:46 occurs now it didn't sound like that the 49:48 way I just said it I said it carefully 49:50 painter splinter but I could say painter 49:53 splinter I would say that if I were 49:55 talking really casually but when i'm 49:57 reading from a book i will say painter 49:59 and splinter the tea is lost from nasal 50:01 tap occurs this has resulted in winter 50:03 and winter and paint at panting and 50:06 panning being pronounced in the same way 50:08 so winner last winter I usually say that 50:11 last winter instead of last winter that 50:13 sounds too formal last winter last 50:15 winter the winner is and panting and 50:18 panning being pronounced in the same way 50:20 for these speakers we can restate 13 50:22 making it Cathy alveolar stops in 50:25 alveolar nasal plus stop sequences 50:28 became become voice taps when they occur 50:30 between two vowels the second of which 50:32 is unstressed we follow that alveolar 50:34 stops to an alveolar nasal m+ stop 50:39 sequences with another stop after like 50:41 winter become voiced taps when they 50:44 occur between two vowels the second of 50:47 which is unstressed alright so alveolar 50:51 stops and L velar nasal + at this I'm 50:54 sorry like I miss 50:55 I didn't didn't explain this correctly 50:57 it should be alveolar stats just took 50:58 that becomes a tap between two vowels or 51:01 if you have an alveolar nasal hmm plus 51:04 an alveolar stop then you get winner all 51:09 right they become voice taps when they 51:11 occur between two vowels the second of 51:12 which is unstressed in the second case 51:14 it is a nasal tab there's a great deal 51:17 of variation among speakers with respect 51:18 to the statements some make taps and 51:21 familiar words such as auntie some say 51:24 ani come some can say oo D or ani ani 51:27 ani you'll heed Indian the negativo 51:30 gangjae but not in less common words 51:32 such as Dante nobody would say Donnie 51:35 book coming Dante some make them only in 51:40 fast speech I'm I do it in fast speech 51:42 not for every single one but I do it a 51:44 lot try to formulate a statement in a 51:46 way that describes your own speech let's 51:48 continue 14 Jerome 14 alveolar 51:54 consonants become dentals before dental 51:57 consonants as in 8th 10th wealth notes 52:04 that this statement applies to all 52:06 alveolar consonants not just stops and 52:09 often applies across where word 52:12 boundaries with money were crowned word 52:15 boundaries as in at least this is a 52:20 statement in which in English the 52:23 gestures for these two consonants 52:25 overlapped over that overlap so much so 52:28 much that's the place of articulation 52:31 for the first consonant is changed ok in 52:34 this case the th is so strong it 52:38 influences the consonant before it to 52:41 become dental in a more rapid style of 52:43 speech some of these dental constants 52:45 tend to be omitted all together and i 52:48 omit the two and eighth I've never said 52:50 the T in 8th as far as I know say these 52:52 words for slowly and then we're rapidly 52:54 and see what you do yourself it is 52:56 difficult to make precise statements 52:58 about when consonants get deleted 53:01 because this depends so much on the 53:02 style of speech being used that's 53:05 something I pay attention for the 53:06 test all right how do we know how can we 53:09 generalize how do we make the rules when 53:12 we don't know the style of speech that's 53:14 one thing that is going to influence 53:15 strongly what we say in the rule and 53:18 that's one reason why we can't make 53:19 really good rules because the style of 53:21 speech will determine what we actually 53:24 do and we do many different things 53:26 alveolar stops often appear to get 53:28 dropped and phrases such a spec finding 53:31 fact-finding I don't drop it can you 53:34 hear it listen and watch fact-finding 53:37 did I drop the T fact-finding I didn't 53:42 drop it it's just unreleased it's 53:45 unreleased but my tongue is there and I 53:47 held in the air so that was most 53:49 definitely an alveolar stop you just 53:51 can't hear it most people say most 53:53 people you can't hear the tea with no 53:55 audible T and they produce phrases such 53:58 as send papers with no audible audible d 54:01 we could state this as follow as follows 54:04 so send papers send papers the D often 54:07 is not audible but your tongue maybe 54:09 they're making the D number 15 15 our 54:14 leader stops are reduced or emitted when 54:18 between two consonants ok so if we have 54:22 a tea between two other consonants we 54:24 reduce them and I think they're more 54:26 often reduced and omitted but they are 54:28 also emitted rule 15 raises an 54:30 interesting point of phonetic theory 54:32 note that we said alveolar staffs often 54:34 up here to get dropped and there may be 54:37 no audible D that means the DS there but 54:39 you can't hear it however the tongue tip 54:42 gesture for the alveolar stop in most 54:44 people may be present but just not 54:47 audible because it is completely 54:48 overlapped by the labial stop following 54:52 so most people I've got my tea there 54:54 I've got my tongue there for the tea but 54:56 the P kind of drowns it out so this one 55:00 is also hard to formulate just because 55:02 you can't hear it doesn't mean it's not 55:04 there more commonly it is partially 55:07 omitted that is to say 55:12 the tongue tip moves up for the alveolar 55:14 stop but does not make a complete 55:16 closure so your tongue goes up but maybe 55:18 you're not making a really solid tee 55:20 there canon in the busa face honga tia 55:22 males will face on the T as an ally when 55:25 we think in terms of phonetic symbols we 55:27 can write most people or most people 55:30 this makes it a question of whether the 55:32 t is there or not but that is not really 55:34 the issue part of the tongue tip gesture 55:36 may have been made a fact we have no way 55:40 of symbolizing so a lot of things happen 55:42 we just can't describe we can write what 55:44 we hear but we really don't know what's 55:46 happening so we can't describe it check 55:48 how you say phrases such as best game 55:51 and grandmaster everybody tried best 55:53 game grandmaster are ending careful so I 55:58 say the D but in context i might say 56:00 grandmaster and you don't hear the d at 56:01 all say these in familiar faces and 56:04 phrases with and without the alveolar 56:06 stop you may find it difficult to 56:07 formulate a statement that takes into 56:09 account all the contexts where alveolar 56:11 steps may not appear in your speech it's 56:13 really hard to describe exactly what 56:14 happens in what situation we must state 56:17 not only where consonants get dropped 56:19 but also where they get added words such 56:22 as something and youngster often get 56:24 pronounced as something and you'll stir 56:27 we finally come to the place in the text 56:29 where they tell us about it I told you 56:31 in class quite a while ago these are 56:33 called epithet ixtapa in a similar way 56:37 many people do not distinguish between 56:38 Prince Prince and Prince or tense and 56:43 tense it's hard for me to distinguish 56:44 all these words may be pronounced with a 56:46 short voiceless stop between the nasal 56:48 and the voiceless fricative but the stop 56:50 is not really an added gesture it's 56:52 simply the result of changing the timing 56:54 of the nasal gesture underline that why 56:57 do we get that epithet ixtapa because we 57:00 stopped nasal izing so if our tongue is 57:03 on our alveolar ridge to make an end but 57:05 then we turn off the nasalization we 57:07 turn off the the airstream going through 57:10 the nose what happens button is going to 57:13 turn into if we turn on the the nasal 57:17 part of mmm we make it oral what's going 57:20 to happen it turns into right that's why 57:24 we get it it's 57:25 matter of timing we turned off the nasal 57:27 part so it becomes oral and that's why 57:29 we get that epithet except so it's not 57:32 like we made a woman Joseph hunted 57:35 either chew toy got you got you got 57:38 deleted gesture life I was 18 it just 57:40 happens due to timing by rushing the 57:43 raising of the vellum for a nasal a 57:45 moment of complete closure a stop occurs 57:47 the apparent insertion of a stop into 57:51 the middle of a word in this way is 57:52 known as a pen thesis pata toejam inks 57:55 is a pen thesis everyone apprentices if 57:59 we wanted to make a formal statement of 58:01 this phenomenon we could say sixteen 58:03 Claire a home organic voiceless stop may 58:08 occur after a nasal before a voiceless 58:11 fricative followed by an unstressed 58:14 vowel in the same word alright that's 58:16 the rule we have a nasal and then we 58:22 have it it is followed by it's followed 58:25 by a voiceless everybody we have a nasal 58:30 followed by a voiceless fricative right 58:35 and what do we get that we didn't expect 58:38 we get an epithet ixtapa and we can add 58:42 one more adjectives in there we get a 58:46 home organic voiceless stop home organic 58:51 with the preceding sound or the 58:53 following sound home organic with the 58:57 nasal or homework or mogan home organic 58:59 with the voiceless fricative there 59:01 follows home organic with the previous 59:06 sound the nasal right so Prince tea is 59:09 home organic with thee and sound right 59:13 in the sound speakers who have an 59:16 epithet ixtapa in the noun noun concert 59:19 can you hear it concert is there tea in 59:21 their concert concert so give me a 59:25 concert I can say concert but it'll 59:29 usually be concert can you hear a tea in 59:31 there too you'll get soda in do not 59:33 usually have one in verbal derivatives 59:36 such as 59:36 concerted or in words such as concern 59:40 because the second syllable is stressed 59:42 that's going to take away the appendices 59:45 nothing need be said about the vowel 59:47 before the nasal apprentices may like 59:49 the tea to tap change in statement 13 59:52 occur between unstressed vowels nam bian 59:54 dou suit me Oh Jong en de mundo hot job 59:58 yummy fashion it is possible to hear an 60:01 inserted tea in both agency grievances 60:04 agency just attach a giant gummy or 60:07 joining the mg adamo statement 16 raises 60:10 a theoretical point similar to that 60:12 discussed in connection with 15 where we 60:14 were concerned with whether a segment 60:16 have been deleted remember winter winner 60:19 to be deleted or not now we are 60:22 concerned with whether a segment has 60:24 been added click is a ganache I'm fine 60:26 brucellosis jolly good in blue coat 60:28 after the Gertrude alaga in such a 60:30 leader in in each case it is better to 60:34 treat these as misleading questions 60:36 we're asking the wrong question and to 60:38 think about the gestures involved rather 60:40 than worry about the symbols that might 60:42 or might not represent the separate 60:44 segments so we have high tea tells us 60:46 you're for how just think about it says 60:51 think about the gestures involved 60:53 illness is some amount of domes or 60:55 nighttime sins I get II think about the 60:57 gestures don't worry so much about the 60:58 symbols it may be convenient to 61:00 transcribe something as something 61:03 something and we often hear the P I have 61:06 something for you there's a Peter but 61:09 transcription is only a tool and should 61:10 not be thought of as necessarily 61:12 portraying the eunice used in the 61:14 production of speech so does the old 61:15 father so if you don't put the P in 61:17 there yeah hi how just make sure you 61:19 understand the gestures the next 61:21 statement accounts for the shortening 61:22 effects that occur when two identical 61:24 consonants come next to one another as a 61:26 big gain and top post somebody asked 61:30 about this in freshman English today it 61:33 is usually not accurate to say that one 61:35 of these consonants is dropping bo shu 61:37 qi gong ye kuchulu there are two 61:39 continental gestures but they overlap 61:42 considerably even in casual speech most 61:44 people would distinguish between 61:46 straight issue and straight issue 61:49 well especially because of the tap 61:51 straight tissue straight straight issue 61:54 straight issue for me there's a pause or 61:57 tab and straight tissue not think it's a 62:02 tingling Toyota straight tissue let's 62:04 try those three everybody straight issue 62:08 straight issue straight tissue okay 62:14 these are good examples for contrasting 62:16 the different possibilities pricing 62:19 these sentences such as in in sentences 62:22 such as that's a stray tissue that's a 62:25 straight issue that's a straight tissue 62:29 but there clearly is a shortening effect 62:32 that we can state as follows a consonant 62:34 is shortened when it is before an 62:36 identical consonant so straight tissue 62:39 boot done you down gatita be lianca T so 62:42 I do I didn't say you go find the time 62:44 do that's what they're saying sorry ego 62:46 fan homayon nigga bang yo D enter code 62:49 blue suit Leon got some good ones on the 62:51 teeth so eager yo pongo so they're say 62:53 cheese only good how champagne and wine 62:55 that's what they're saying here we 62:58 can describe the overlapping gestures 63:00 that result in more advanced 63:02 articulations of cook and cap kept kit 63:05 key and a good in gap get give geese you 63:11 should be able to feel the fronted 63:13 position of your tongue your tongue 63:15 contact in the latter words of these 63:17 series we can say so everybody let's 63:19 just say them go through the series go 63:22 cap 63:27 let's try that again go the second one 63:32 is kept everybody kept not cat kept okay 63:38 do that series again cap very good the g 63:43 series it's not jeez talk first of all 63:52 the s is it an sr z it's an S and second 63:56 since it's a nest we have e a really 63:58 long e no geese geese right this morning 64:03 some students were saying clothes for 64:07 clothes and then they they got rid of 64:09 the Z and then they said it's very close 64:11 is that right no hi sad when everyone 64:15 close close close all right number 18 64:21 please Baylor stops become more front 64:25 before more front vowels all right we 64:27 know that so four wheeler stops we have 64:33 like good gap get give geese they're 64:39 more front when we have more front 64:41 vowels so let's it's better to look at 64:44 something like a cat character get all 64:47 of these are more friend okay because 64:49 they're all front vowels but if we have 64:51 like gah orca that's going to be more 64:53 back all right and then finally we need 64:56 to note the difference in the quality of 64:58 all in life and in file the dark L or 65:02 clap my clap is a bit dark and talc 65:06 helps it nigga some effect what stack 65:12 talc that's we write a nigga should hope 65:17 flashes that's exactly I couldn't think 65:19 of it washes that that's talc or feeling 65:24 and feel fueling because of the Conte of 65:27 the vowel that comes after the L it's a 65:30 clear L feeling or could be dark plus a 65:33 clear l feel Lincoln in so lambda L then 65:36 she 65:37 and the other one is feel that's 65:39 definitely dark everyone feeling I have 65:42 both I have dark plus clear and then 65:44 feel as just dark k-19 the lateral L is 65:49 paralyzed me feel really rise when after 65:54 a vowel before a consonant at the end of 65:57 the world and that's easy to remember 65:58 just put a Tildy in the middle of the L 66:00 that means velar eyes note that there 66:02 are clearly distinct gestures required 66:04 for all in the different circumstances 66:07 these are not differences that can be 66:09 ascribed to overlapping gestures let's 66:12 take a break one page 77 we're going to 66:14 talk about the last paragraph diacritics 66:16 and i will just go over this for you 66:23 diacritics we know those are extra 66:26 symbols that we add for example 66:28 nasalization or voiceless pneus or that 66:31 a sound is dental those are diacritics 66:34 extra marks that we add make sure you 66:36 can define diacritics let's look at the 66:39 glossary in the back to make sure we can 66:42 define diacritics what page is it on I 66:47 have it in the glossary in the back of 66:51 the book 66:56 306 good whose turn is it whose turn I 67:01 want you to read the definition in the 67:04 glossary wait a minute for the camera 67:06 joy diacritic small added mark that can 67:12 be used to distinguish different values 67:14 of a symbol of other of other symbol 67:19 right for example the addition to the 67:22 addition of a Tildy Tildy distinguishes 67:26 a villa right knee feel arised from an 67:29 envelope right now I'm realizing non 67:32 villainized sound as in all Oh as 67:37 opposed to look look alright i would 67:40 suggest everybody copy this into your 67:42 notes and when i say i would suggest you 67:46 can understand that as as what Amy right 67:55 and not just that that's not really what 67:57 I meant if i say i would suggest you do 67:59 something it's because what it may well 68:03 be on the test so i already tell you 68:05 ahead of time what's going to be on the 68:06 test right that should have helped you 68:08 prepare a bit be able to define a 68:10 diacritic just like you needed to be 68:13 able to define phonetics and phonology 68:15 and the differences between the two 68:18 whenever you've got a really important 68:20 concept like that this is actually 68:23 fairly important it's a tool I mean not 68:26 hugely hugely important but important 68:28 enough make sure you can define it 68:29 memorized the definition because my 68:32 experience is if somebody just asked me 68:35 what's phonetics I teach it but each as 68:38 it would jumble to I have to look it up 68:39 in the book because I don't have a short 68:42 to the point definition ready it's too 68:45 much I can't tell you in one sentence ah 68:47 but the book usually can so any kind of 68:50 a new concept especially in bold but 68:53 sometimes they're not involved any new 68:55 concept effing thetic is another one 68:57 right make sure that you can define a 68:59 pathetic home organic make sure you can 69:03 define that all of those memorize the 69:05 definitions that will make life easier 69:08 not only 69:08 you but for the TAS and me as well 69:10 because otherwise we have the champagne 69:12 in your coat chief o'neill's 20 fan and 69:15 right men d-2 and i have to say 69:19 himalayan cat soon as your ticket and 69:21 send both of them can be really good 69:22 teachers you might have a cold and they 69:24 go fer note how much water to the face 69:26 on to it no idea that many of the fates 69:28 on its way usually it's exactly what I 69:30 would have done so but does it take 69:34 extra time when somebody gets a half 69:35 right answer if it's a completely wrong 69:38 answer is that hard completely wrong is 69:41 not hard completely right is that hard 69:43 no half right that's the worst band 3 69:47 sit sweet home CUDA I can just tell when 69:49 I was looking at their ahora me lo 69:52 chin chin now how yo can young leader 69:53 I'm a young actor you guys are 69:55 Coley I'm vanilla and honk ooh right 69:57 it's really tiring so either either just 70:01 decide you're not going to pass the test 70:02 and don't study or otherwise get it all 70:04 correct does it get to get bad day bands 70:06 hold its in LA alright so diacritics you 70:09 can now define that I hope it should go 70:11 in your notes in this end the previous 70:13 chapter we have seen how the 70:14 transcription of English can be made 70:16 more detailed by the use of diacritic 70:18 small marks added to a symbol to narrow 70:21 its meaning that means to make it more 70:24 specific on tagging she coming true is 70:28 awakened gong xi gong xiang shi you got 70:32 so much more detailed the six diacritics 70:36 we have introduced so far are shown in 70:37 table 3.2 you should learn the use of 70:40 these diacritics before you attempt any 70:42 further detailed transcription exercises 70:44 note that the nasalization diacritic is 70:47 a small wavy line called a TLD and it's 70:50 written above the symbol and velar 70:54 ization is also written with a tilde 70:56 through the middle of the symbol 70:57 nasalization is more common among vowels 71:00 which will be discussed in the next 71:02 chapter but we're going to do chapter 5 71:04 next we're going to save for to last 71:06 because we'll probably rush we're going 71:08 to go through five slightly in a 71:10 slightly less rushed away and Stanley 71:13 just pointed out something quite 71:14 interesting in table 3.2 something 71:16 inconsistent can the rest of you find 71:18 what he found look at the whole tables 71:21 there's something a little odd 71:22 the villa rise symbol it's shown as the 71:26 Tildy in the middle of the L but on the 71:28 Left they wrote an o n and o is not 71:31 strange because that's a velar sound its 71:34 way back its high and it's back that's 71:36 in the velar area but they didn't 71:38 explain it they just threw it in there 71:40 so I would say that that's something 71:43 that needs to be fixed last class after 71:46 class somebody asked me if there's a way 71:48 of indicating indicating that a sound is 71:50 more front or more back like cot and key 71:52 right or if it's more or less rounded 71:55 for example o is very rounded Oh is less 71:59 rounded or twin the t is rounded there 72:02 right yes whenever you're wondering if 72:05 we can indicate something in your 72:07 transcription where do you go we just 72:12 talked about diacritics so if we want to 72:14 indicate some more detail like key and 72:18 kah one is more front one is more back 72:21 if we want to indicate that kind of 72:22 detail where do we go here we are right 72:27 here where do we go the inside front 72:34 cover the inside of the front cover can 72:37 you see it how about if you all just 72:41 read to me the different things that we 72:43 can indicate with diacritics see that 72:45 whole shamu is called diacritics and if 72:48 you're using that I speak online 72:50 software that application they have 72:54 different categories pulmonic one 72:56 pulmonic two vowels diacritics all right 73:00 let's just read them all together 73:01 everybody go voiceless and don't say 73:05 voiceless voiceless all right little 73:08 circle underneath the symbol next and 73:10 you can see that looks like your DNE 73:13 gosh you get sighs shouting it's a bar 73:16 right that's voiced we don't usually use 73:18 that one that much take a busa in 73:20 comment we could okay but we really 73:23 don't use it very often next very good 73:27 more rounded 73:29 right and it's pointing which way is it 73:36 pointing left it's pointing right isn't 73:40 it pointing so they can go to either 73:44 defund or nuisance or chick chuckles I 73:46 not eat every day I'm saying that Gucci 73:49 Leather they found an ally so it's 73:51 pointing right in my conception okay the 73:54 next one read okay and next mm-hmm 74:01 advanced means more to the front beach 74:04 out yet more front that's what advanced 74:07 means next and that's easy to remember 74:10 Wang Chan has plus Wong Howe is a minus 74:13 easy to remember retracted means one 74:15 hole twice all of these next centralized 74:20 we've got that little two dots just like 74:23 in which language 74:28 albanian yeah remember albanian that II 74:31 with little two dots good next mid 74:35 centralized we don't use that so much 74:37 but when we needed it's their next 74:40 syllabic everyone knows that you used a 74:42 dot before now it's a little line next 74:45 non syllabic also not so common I have 74:48 not seen that that much but it's useful 74:50 I'm sure in some cases next rotisserie 74:55 good that little hook we all know that 74:56 next no we say breathy breathy that's 75:01 from the noun breath not the mound ree 75:03 another verb breathe so bresee we 75:05 haven't learned that yet will learn that 75:07 second semester next creaky voice we 75:10 know creaky from ah when we were 75:12 learning about formants and this again 75:14 is a tilde written we're under the 75:17 symbol so we've got above middle and 75:20 under they all have different meanings 75:21 next lingual labial this is a new symbol 75:26 this was only instituted less than 10 75:29 years ago I think so lingo is tongue 75:31 labial look like this alright next labia 75:39 lized good that means lip rounding right 75:44 twin wha some kind of lip rounding but 75:46 not necessarily as round as ooh it may 75:50 more be more like Shh so their degrees 75:53 of label ization next palatal eyes and 75:59 that's like Tia yeah yeah yeahs etc 76:04 there's a lot of that in in konoha next 76:08 viola rised now they just gave us an 0 76:11 for that symbol right but it's not a new 76:14 you can see here it's a gamma that's the 76:16 Greek letter gamma and this sound is 76:20 pronounced look it's a Tonga huh twanda 76:25 sigimor in like to the justices soo 76:29 nigga blah tie you to make a lot and a 76:32 caddy fun or could sit good sit there 76:36 look good if you're doing a beijing 76:38 accent 76:39 this is a gamma and then this is a vowel 76:42 you can find this file everybody find 76:43 this file so you know where it is we 76:45 talked about it before it's mid high 76:48 rounded and unrounded and back so mid 76:52 high back unrounded everybody find it 76:55 inside of the back cover it good so viel 76:58 Erised is shogun wat or rum Lacroix is a 77:03 gamma huh nigga who hot buns and you'll 77:06 salute voice dealer what who is a voiced 77:12 velar fricative write that down or make 77:15 some kind of note of it it's worth 77:16 knowing huh we're going to need that 77:18 symbol in the future and I think you'll 77:21 find it in some formosan languages let's 77:26 see how far did we get so label eyes 77:28 palette allies velar eyes next for in 77:30 July's that's found in Arabic for 77:33 example and also I think in some 77:35 asian languages cow desolation shoot you 77:37 yet hyerollah boy that's really low down 77:41 there view arise or for realized salonga 77:47 yo show poopin in Widow hung home yet 77:49 and raised we know from wheeler raising 77:53 if we turn it upside down its lowered 77:56 bjd it's a capital T advanced tongue 78:00 route will learn that next semester it's 78:02 on the slit ho so the so gonna be until 78:04 one qin shi huang jin ji that's advanced 78:07 tongue root and then retract it's the 78:10 wang ho chi of this so good then next is 78:14 dental next apical apex is nigga dan 78:20 Foley is Jim just three sleep dinged 78:23 Wanda ego d found ego geofoam is apical 78:26 and we use apical for the very very tip 78:30 of the tongue just a shuttle surgeon 78:32 haeseong's agenda in the apex a Picasso 78:35 surgeon face on a surgeon in for example 78:38 in Chinese food food food are apical 78:43 they're usually called dental image so 78:45 once you find your own passive 78:46 articulator line now show they call them 78:49 in but in English we call them 78:51 apical that's worth knowing 78:53 our apical write it down it's useful 78:57 next year's laminal laminal that means 79:02 sure yeah sure yeah in it's just a 79:04 little square actually it's a rectangle 79:07 I think next nasalized is B qua not 79:12 being its bwaaah for example a a you can 79:17 also nasalized sounds like L well then 79:22 lr Yoko hazel eyes be ha so that means 79:25 we've got air coming out of both the 79:26 nose and the mouth then we've got a 79:29 nasal release like no no in Russian okay 79:35 then we have a lateral release blah blah 79:40 and you'll find that in some Native 79:41 American languages I think with T 79:43 especially lateral release no audible 79:47 release is unreleased no audible 79:50 releases unreleased we've already talked 79:51 about that boo boo tool to do you sit 79:53 and then we've got a couple of others we 79:59 don't need to cover those now I think 80:00 that's quite enough for now and 80:01 additional things need ciggies xie xiao 80:04 we're going to learn super seg medals in 80:06 chapter 5 so we have now finished 80:12 chapter 3 and to remind you the 80:17 exercises again have numbering problems 80:19 be aware of that Sophia have you already 80:22 posted the numbering problems okay maybe 80:24 you can do that again you're so good at 80:25 finding that before i do but these 80:27 things happen year after year and I 80:29 usually forget to mention it myself mmm 80:32 so next time will be the 26th you hand 80:35 in your class notes plus the plats 80:36 assignment and your written and 80:39 performance exercises I do also next 80:41 Monday written and performance exercises 80:43 have both ready make sure you've written 80:46 them all out not just thought about them 80:47 in your head and get as many examples as 80:50 they ask for try to be exhaustive yeah 80:52 sweet three houses you know Shawn elbows 80:55 out Joe de Lucia but don't exhaust 80:57 yourself honey honey I'll instance oil 80:59 because it will get a little tiring it's 81:01 not that bad that you're really really 81:03 terrible but this one is actually quite 81:06 labor 81:06 intensive yasha and you will get some 81:09 help from the website if you need it and 81:11 there's a tool that I can tell you about 81:13 that might be helpful it's the one look 81:15 dictionary do you all know about it 81:18 because in the one look dictionary if 81:20 you're working looking for a word for 81:22 example that ends in en you can just 81:26 stashing how than en all the words that 81:29 end in en you'll find it that way or 81:31 maybe you want where's it in an t en or 81:34 maybe you just want all of the words 81:38 that start with B and n with t and have 81:41 one letter between them just put a 81:45 question mark ? is one character ego to 81:48 the UN take us to the rule guy we shan't 81:50 duo de jugando a saw and it also has 81:54 other search functions read the site 81:58 they have instructions they will tell 82:00 you how to look for for example four 82:02 consonants and vowels they have separate 82:04 symbols so check those out they're very 82:06 useful one look is truly useful for 82:08 phone atactic exercises and other 82:11 phonetic exercises sometimes you know I 82:14 think that's it unless we have questions 82:16 the rest of the questions we're going to 82:17 cover on the 26 when we go through the 82:20 exercises anybody have anything you want 82:22 to ask we're going to go to chapter 5 82:26 let's go actually the exercises for 82:30 chapter four that's when you'll really 82:32 need one look this one is not so bad but 82:34 for chapter four you're going to need 82:36 this so you might want to start the 82:37 exercises for chapter four early because 82:39 that's what that's the one where we want 82:41 as many examples as you can find for 82:43 chapter three actually they usually tell 82:45 you only give so many examples maybe 82:47 three examples but for chapter four we 82:50 want as many as you can find everybody 82:52 get that So Solid Ian crisis will 82:54 chapter four maybe not right now because 82:56 you're very busy but before too long 82:58 start working on the chapter four 83:00 exercises because those are those really 83:03 take a lot of fought in time alright 83:05 we're going to chapter five well we do 83:08 have a time to start so our next reader 83:12 alles ok chapter 5 english words and 83:16 sentences words in connected speech in 83:20 previous chapters we consider in 83:22 previous chapters left ap in previous 83:25 chapters we considered this of words 83:27 that illustrated the contrast between 83:30 continents and the contrast between 83:32 vowels this is a good way of starting to 83:35 look at the gestures that make up the 83:37 words of English or indeed of any 83:40 language as we will see you later but 83:44 speech is not really composed with a not 83:46 that oh it's not really composed of a 83:49 series of distinct gestures and anyway 83:53 we don't usually in any way why is the 83:56 continuation rise and anyway we don't 83:59 usually speak using isolated words pay 84:02 attention to that because in this 84:04 chapter we're going to put a lot of 84:05 emphasis on this idea that we don't 84:07 usually speak using isolated words and 84:09 words in context we'll have a lot of 84:13 changes that take place in them okay as 84:16 we saw in chapter 1 when looking at the 84:19 short movie clip on a short movie clip 84:23 short movie clip on top of his death all 84:26 the all the actions run together making 84:29 it very hard to see separate gestures 84:32 it's useful to look at Short specially 84:36 constructed phrases so as to be able to 84:39 see the main aspects of individual 84:41 vowels individual individual it's not V 84:45 it's the individual individual 84:48 individual that's better individual 84:51 vowels and consonants consonance 84:54 consonant Alice Nia Jay I need a nigga 84:56 continuation neither consonants as we 84:59 did using x-ray clips x-ray eclipses 85:02 x-ray clips in chapter 2 and 3 chapters 85:07 chapters 2 and 3 but now we must look at 85:11 how pronunciations of 85:13 vidual in the individual the individual 85:17 I individual words individual individual 85:22 asking words compared with what happens 85:25 in more normal connected speech all 85:27 right that's the theme of this chapter 85:30 what happens to sounds in so at a normal 85:34 more normal connected speech and if you 85:38 look at a word all by itself it's called 85:40 the citation form ok I'm going to 85:45 summarize now it's almost time at least 85:47 one syllable is fully stressed and 85:49 there's no reduction of vowel quality 85:51 that's an important idea so in a word 85:55 especially a Content word because if 85:58 it's a function word we often pronounced 85:59 it in with a reduced foul so in a word 86:03 one syllable at least one syllable will 86:06 be stressed and that's syllable have a 86:08 vowel that is not a schwa it will not be 86:13 a schwa it will have at least one 86:15 stressed syllable it will be a clear 86:17 full vowel not a schwa but in connected 86:21 speech many changes may take place 86:23 consider for example the spectrogram and 86:25 figure 5.1 now look at that on the next 86:30 page bottom of 108 to see the 86:33 spectrogram there oh this is too early 86:36 to try and teach you all about 86:38 spectrograms we're going to go into 86:39 these in detail second semester but I 86:42 will just tell you basically what to 86:43 look at the vertical black lines you can 86:46 see there are vertical black lines they 86:48 were there those are the pulses of the 86:50 vocal folds so each vertical black line 86:54 like with the waveform is one pulse of 86:56 the vocal folds don't Jana nigga by the 86:59 niggas it don't gender nigga low 87:02 pressure to show how it has that wave 87:03 food a nigga chahal then you see those 87:07 dark bands just a 3d boo or 3 3d 87:10 Charlotte Aoife just down to the each 87:13 option gochi that's called a voice bar 87:15 if you have voicing you inside three 87:18 shama in the puffin three ok take a 87:21 ticket to be outraged a me in the 87:22 bullpen you will see just a shooter 87:26 eager and the good just each how each 87:28 other badal haida mega hey share that's 87:30 a color voice bar let's bail so you're 87:32 voicing mayo the hydro samuel voicing 87:35 then you'll see these big bars to eat or 87:38 assign sugar your mo tablets the towel 87:41 nigga hey hey des Cronk wanda bar right 87:44 there everybody is everybody with me 87:47 those are formats those are formats 87:50 we've already learned what form and 87:52 stars so since we worked so much on it 87:55 early in the semester this is going to 87:56 be a lot easier especially second 87:58 semester because na et al we tell dat 88:00 those performance f1 f2 f3 f4 f4 is not 88:04 important for our purposes f1 f2 are the 88:07 most important f3 concerns rounding lip 88:10 rounding especially and ours lip 88:13 rounding and ours and ours are rounded 88:14 anyway so that's what those are now it 88:18 says to look at the spectrogram and it 88:22 says this is our first spectrogram of 88:23 speech so you shouldn't expect to get 88:25 much out of it at first but even with 88:27 only a little explanation of how to read 88:29 a spectrogram you should be able to tell 88:31 that the word opposite was set in two 88:33 different ways in this utterance it says 88:36 the opposite direction and I went in the 88:40 opposite direction so we have two 88:43 phrases two uses of the word two 88:48 occurrences of the word opposite the 88:50 first one is shorter the opposite 88:53 direction the second one is in a longer 88:57 phrase and I went in the opposite 88:59 direction which one do you think is 89:02 going to be more detailed and more like 89:05 the citation form the first one just 89:08 because there are fewer words right and 89:10 if you look at the spectrogram just look 89:14 where it says opposite on the left and 89:16 opposite on the right what happened to 89:19 the one on the right that you can just 89:20 see visually just looking at it knowing 89:22 very little or nothing at all about 89:24 spectrograms what can you say it's 89:28 shorter good what else the darkness of 89:33 the lines reflects how loud the sound is 89:36 so if it's very dark gets louder if it's 89:39 very light it's softer so what else can 89:41 you say it's softer it's not as loud 89:45 right the formants are not quite as 89:47 clear so while those two things those 89:52 are those are already quite a bit of 89:53 information the speaker was being 89:59 interviewed and the topic of life life 90:01 choices came up he was talking about 90:03 choosing between a life of crime or a 90:06 life in a religious discipline and he 90:07 said and he said or I was going to go in 90:12 the opposite direction and I went in the 90:15 opposite direction now what happened the 90:17 second time or I was going to go in the 90:22 opposite direction and I went in the 90:24 opposite direction what did I do it's 90:29 distressed in the second part because 90:31 it's old information it's repeated 90:34 information so you can see that clearly 90:37 in the spectrogram and that's typical of 90:39 some of the changes that we're going to 90:41 be discussing they both seem to be 90:43 perfectly perfectly acceptable American 90:46 pronunciations of the word but the 90:47 spectrogram shows some differences the 90:49 second opposite is phonetically reduced 90:52 because it's old information we don't 90:54 need to stress everything and make it so 90:56 clear there are arrows under the 90:58 portions of the spectrogram that 90:59 correspond to vowel sounds the first 91:02 opposite has three arrows corresponding 91:04 to the three vowels that we expect in 91:06 the citation form of the word while in 91:09 the second production we can only 91:11 identify two vowels segments alright 91:13 that's a good introduction to the 91:15 chapter that's going to give you an idea 91:16 of the direction that we're going in any 91:19 questions before we wrap up for today 91:21 any questions at all remember that NTU 91:26 phonetics is always open even at three 91:28 in the morning sometimes for your 91:30 questions and comments and contributions 91:32 and let me emphasize again even those of 91:36 you who did okay on the test but could 91:38 do better I recommend that 20 minutes in 91:41 the morning 20 minutes in the afternoon 91:42 or evening some time reading sentence by 91:44 sentence to make sure that you have all 91:47 this stuff really solid in your head so 91:50 no questions 91:51 we'll see you next Monday don't forget 91:53 to bring all your homework
