Why have this lecture?
To better understand– how English is spoken– how spoken English can be studied
To arouse your curiosity– about a living language– about a potential subject of research
![Page 5: Université de Savoie UFR-LLSH LCE1 UE 103 CM de Phonétique & Phonologie](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042608/56813438550346895d9b2c24/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Why phonetics? Why phonology?
to improve your hearing to improve your speaking to improve your communication skills to improve your understanding of:
– the unique features of spoken French (your L1)– the unique features of spoken English
![Page 6: Université de Savoie UFR-LLSH LCE1 UE 103 CM de Phonétique & Phonologie](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042608/56813438550346895d9b2c24/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

What is phonetics?
The study of sounds produced by human beings– « Branche de la linguistique qui étudie les sons
des langues naturelles » (Petit Robert)
A systematic approach to these sounds
![Page 7: Université de Savoie UFR-LLSH LCE1 UE 103 CM de Phonétique & Phonologie](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042608/56813438550346895d9b2c24/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

What is phonology?
« Science which studies the function of phonemes in natural languages. »
(Phonemes = « the smallest unit of spoken language »)

What are the branches of this field?
General phonetics (acoustic & articulatory/physiological): studies the functionning of the human speech appartus and analyses articulatory capacities & the characteristics of the sounds produced, using acoustic measures
Descriptive phonetics : study of phonetic properties of a given language
Historical/evolutionary phonetics : study of the phonetic changes of a given language
Normative phonetics : prescribes rules for the « good » pronunciation of a given language
Forensic phonetics : study of phonetic properties for a medico-legal purpose
![Page 9: Université de Savoie UFR-LLSH LCE1 UE 103 CM de Phonétique & Phonologie](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042608/56813438550346895d9b2c24/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

What are the tools of descriptive phonetics?
A system of symbols which graphically represents human sounds
The IPA system (International Phonetics Association)
