Articulation basis of English

It is the summary of all the rules of articulation in a given lan-ge. The Eng. Articulation is very specific due to the fact that English is an orthoepic lan-ge (spelling and pronunciation vary).

1) All Eng. Consonants are hard, no positional palatalization.

2) Aspiration is preservation of the intensity of the air stream throughout the whole process of articulation. It is positional phenomenon affecting 3 Eng. Plosives /p,t,k/. Aspiration is foreign to Slavonic lan-es.

3) There are 2 phonemes in Eng. Which are strange to all other lan-es / Ǿ, ð/.

4) There are 2 Eng. Sounds which are unique according to their origin /t,d/ - alveolar.

5) There is a very unique, though not originally Eng. Sound, / ŋ/.

6) Eng. Word final voiced consonants shouldn’t be avoided.

7) In Eng. Sound /r/ is called rolled or cacuminal because of special tongue positions:

- Linkin (whe re i s)

- Intrusive (get out - /geraut/)

English vocalic system
