Download or read book Articulators written by Dr. Nazia Majeed Zargar and published by Shineeks Publishers. This book was released on 2022-07-22 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An articulator is a mechanical device that simulates the movements of the mandible. From the early 18th century different articulators have been developed, each one being better and different from the previous one, so that jaw movements can be reproduced accurately for restorations to be successful. The uses of articulators include diagnose and plan dental conditions, to aid in the fabrication of dental restorations and to correct and modify completed restorations. The main advantage of the articulator is that it acts as a patient in the absence of a patient and saves considerable chair side time. However, every instrument has its limitations as error can occur from metal fatigue and wear. This book gives insights about the how articulators have evolved over the past years, their classification, laws governing articulation and lastly parts and working of some of the common used articulators.

Download or read book Comprehensive Articulatory Phonetics written by T. L. Cleghorn and published by N M Rugg. This book was released on 2011-06-16 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprehensive Articulatory Phonetics teaches how to recognize, record, and reproduce the sounds of any language. Note: The audio files can be downloaded from this link: bit.ly/1lCb0Ly Phonetics is the study of sounds. Specifically, it is the study of human speech sounds. A person who only speaks one language may not realize that there are hundreds of different consonants and vowels spoken by humans in different parts of the world. This book will introduce the reader to almost every sound spoken by man. Since the English alphabet is inadequate to represent every speech sound known to man, the reader will be taught the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). This is a special alphabet containing numerous symbols that represent sounds for all languages. Charts are included in the back of this book that list many of the symbols used in the IPA. Some IPA symbols will look quite familiar, but others are from foreign languages or were invented specially for the IPA. Learning these symbols and their corresponding sounds is the foundation to accurately learning the sound system of a language. The reader should also be aware of the fact that not all linguists follow the IPA conventions. Though this book generally follows the standard IPA, alternative symbols and notations will be explained throughout the text. This book is intended for speakers of American English because many of the sounds are compared to the English language. Speakers of other dialects or languages may need to adjust their pronunciation accordingly.

Download or read book The Articulatory Basis of Locality in Phonology written by Adamantios I. Gafos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work elucidates the nature of the notion of Locality in phonology, describing the minimal conditions under which sounds assimilate to one another. The central thesis is that a sound can assimilate to another sound only if gestural contiguity is established between these two sounds. The argument supporting the central thesis of this book is unique in bringing evidence from articulatory dynamics, electromyography, and cross-linguistic sound patterns to converge on the same notion of locality in phonology. This book will be of particular interest to researchers in phonetics, phonology, and morphology, as well as to cognitive scientists interested in how the grammar may include constraints that emerge from the physical aspects of speech.

This book was released on 2012-03-24 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dialect Accent Features for Establishing Speaker Identity: A Case Study discusses the subject of forensic voice identification and speaker profiling. Specifically focusing on speaker profiling and using dialects of the Hindi language, widely used in India, the authors have contributed to the body of research on speaker identification by using accent feature as the discriminating factor. This case study contributes to the understanding of the speaker identification process in a situation where unknown speech samples are in different language/dialect than the recording of a suspect. The authors' data establishes that vowel quality, quantity, intonation and tone of a speaker as compared to Khariboli (standard Hindi) could be the potential features for identification of dialect accent.

Download or read book Primitives of Phonological Structure written by Florian Breit and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-08 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together phonologists working in different areas to explore key questions relating to phonological primitives, the basic building blocks that are at the heart of phonological structure and over which phonological computations are carried out. Whether these units are referred to as features, elements, gestures, or something else entirely, the assumptions that are made about them are fundamental to modern phonological theory. Even so, there is limited consensus on the specifics of those assumptions. The chapters in this book present differing perspectives on phonological primitives and their implications, addressing some of the most pressing issues in the field such as how many features there are; whether those features are privative or binary; and whether segments need to be specified for all features. The studies cover a wide range of methodologies and domains, including experimental work, fieldwork, language acquisition, theory-internal concerns, and many more, and will be of interest to phoneticians and phonologists from all theoretical backgrounds.
