What will I learn?
You will build a complete understanding of articulatory phonetics, starting with vocal tract anatomy and airstream mechanisms. You will learn to classify consonants by place and manner of articulation and describe vowels using the Cardinal Vowel system. The course covers voicing, phonation types, and suprasegmental features such as stress, tone, and intonation. You will also analyse connected speech processes including assimilation and reduction. Advanced modules introduce IPA diacritics, phonetic fieldwork methods, and cross-linguistic sound inventories. By the end, you will produce professional-quality narrow transcriptions and structured phonetic analyses.
