CHAPTER I
PRONOUNCIATION
Key Concepts :
-> Phonetics symbols Consonants and Phonology,
-> Vowels Syllables and Diphthongs
Phonetics: a system for describing and recording the sounds of language objectively.
Phonetics provides a valuable way of opening our ears to facets of language that we tend to
understand by reference to their written rather than their actual spoken forms.
Phonology: concerns itself with the ways in which languages make use of sounds to distinguish
words from each other.Or we can saythe study of sounds and speech patterns in language.
Voicing : Sounds produced with vibrating vocal folds (see Figure 1) are said to be voiced; those
produced without vocal cord vibration are voiceless. Table 1 lists the voiced and voiceless consonants
of English. The letters in [ ] are the phonetic symbols for the sounds.
Vowels: include the sounds we ordinarily represent as the letters <a, e, i, o, u>, as well as a
number of other sounds for which the ordinary alphabet has no unique symbols.
short vowels: long vowels:
cat, back, black, apple, lab, jacket (short a) ape, snail, snake, whale, crane , jade (long a)
elephant, elk, pet, red, yellow (short e) eagle, sheep, beaver, eel, deer, geese, green , bee (long e)
pig, fish, chick, lizard, pink (short i) ivory, mice, tiger, lion, white, (long i)
hog, ostrich, dog, otter, fox, goat, polar bear, comb (long o)
pup, bug, duck, bunny, slug
blue, puma, cute, flu, (long u)
Diphthongs : are types of vowels where two vowel sounds are connected in a continuous, gliding
motion.The sounds of ou in out and of oy in boy arediphthongs.
: beard, weird, fierce, ear, beer, tear
e: aired, cairn, scarce, bear, hair,
: moored, tour, lure, sure, pure
e : paid, pain, face, shade, age, wait, taste, paper
a : tide, time, nice, buy, bike, pie, eye, kite, fine
: void, loin, voice, oil, boil, coin, toy, Roy

The photograph shows a football player getting a red card from a referee
at a soccer match.The player who is getting the card is on the white team.
He is turning away and looks disgusted. I think he can't believe it. The
other players in the picture are all from the other team. They look very
happy with the referee's decision. The other team has a blue and white
kit. The referee is holding the red card high in the air. He is being very
clear - I think he is quite strict and is not allowing any discussion. The
stadium is crowded, and it is difficult to see where the players are from,
but it must be an important match.

The picture shows a big group of young people having a barbeque in a park. I think they are
from Japan.
There are about 20 people in the group, and most of them are wearing jeans and blue or
dark-colored shirts. They are having a lot of fun, and some of them are making faces at the
camera. Everybody is trying to get in the picture.
They are in some kind of a park or a forest. They could be on holiday, or it could be a school
trip. I don't know what they are cooking. It could be hamburger, but it could also be some
special Japanese food!
