Comparative Chart of Vowel Phonemes in Canadian English, General American and RP

¹ I»j. lea], [09], Eu»] correspond to the QA дпи СЕ (»), [srj. [srj,

There are three main types distinguished within RP pronuncia­tion; 1) conservative — used by older generation, by certain profes­sions or social groups, 2) the general RP used by the BBC, and 3) the advanced RP, used by young people, or in some circles for prestige purposes.

The main differences between standard and advanced RP are the following:

1) The closing diphthongs are pronounced with the weakened or
lost glide, e. g.

/tel/ instead of /teil/

/ou/ turns into /a: /, e. g. /Ьз: п/ instead of /boim/ /ai/ turns into /a³/ or /a/, e. g. /ba³d/, /bad/ instead of /baid/ /аи/ turns into /a^a/, or /a/, e. g. /ta^a/, or /t< t/ instead of Даиз/ /oi/ turns into /o: /, e. g. /bo: / instead of /boi/ {tall, call are exceptions)

2) The centring diphthongs are levelled with monophthongs:
/оэ/—/о: /

/ia/, /бэ/ turn into /e: / or long /ж/, е- g. bared, fared, pared are pronounced as /bs: d/, /fs: d/, /pe: d/

/is/ is opposed to /еэ/ in open syllables, e. g. hear—hair, fear — fair. This opposition does not occur before voiceless, or before /1/.

/л/ turns into /a/, e. g. /san/ instead oi /sAn/

3) The glottal stop is used between words and syllables, e. g»
/ni? jehti/, /6i >? a: nt/, /Oet'? eib1/— that table.

4) /r/ is pronounced like the GA retroflex /r/.

Exercises p. 33

8. In the articulation of /p, t, k/ the vocal cords are taken apart and do not vibrate. In the production of /b, d, g/ the vocal cords are drawn close together and vibrate. In the /p, t, k/ articulation the force of exhalation is much greater than that in the production of /b, d, g/, therefore /p, t, k/ are voiceless fortis and /b, d, g/ are voiced lenis.

4. In the articulation of /m, n, rj/ the soft palate is lowered. In the articu­
lation of /ij/ it is not only lowered, but forms a complete obstruction with
the back part of the tongue. The air escapes through the nasal cavity.

5. In the articulation of /b/ the noise is produced when the flow of air
breaks the complete obstruction formed by both lips, /b/ is an occlusive plosive
stop noise consonant. In the articulation of hi the noise U produced when the
flow or air passes through the incomplete obstruction formed by the lower lip
and the edge of the upper teeth, hi is a constrictive noise consonant. In the ar­
ticulation of/tf/ the noise is produced by the flow of air first breaking a complete
obstruction between the tip of the tongue and the teethridge and almost imme­
diately passing through the narrowing formed between the tip of the tongue
and the teethridge, /tf/ is occlusive-constricttve, or affricate.

6. In the articulation of /w/the active organs of speech are the lips, which
form a round narrowing. In the articulation of /j/ the active organ of speech is
the middle part of the tongue which is raised to the hard palate and forms a
narrowing with it, through which the air goes out rather freely. In the articu­
lation of /h/ the walls of the glottis are slightly contracted when the air goes out
through it almost without any friction, /w/ is bilabial, /j/ is medlo-lingual,
/h/ is glottal.

8. The place of articulation (focus) in the production of /s/ (lenis) its be­tween the teethridge and the front part of the tongue. There is groove-shaped depression in the front part of the tongue, through which the air passes with friction: it passes through a round narrowing. The place of articulation (focus) in the production of III is between the lower iip and the edge of the upper teeth. The air passes through this narrowing with friction. The narrowing in III ar­ticulation is more or less flat.

4. Cardinal vowel No. 1 is pronounced with the position of the tongue
higher than for the Russian accented /и/ in such words as пили, били, лили.

Cardinal vowel No. 2 is pronounced with the position of the tongue narrower than for the Russian /e/ in the words месть, тесть.

Cardinal vowel No. 3 is similar to the Russian /э/ in the words ахо, это.

2. The allophones of the It! phoneme are for example: labialized in: rock_r roof, rook, raw; devoiced in: present, practice, problem, protract; affricated in: tree, trim, troop, try, drain, dry, drop, draw; single tap in; throw, throng, three­pence, thrust.

3. As a result of palatalization in the Russian language consonants alwy
occur аз soft phonemes and the vowel phonemes turn to the /j/+V positional"
allophone of the vowel phoneme.

4, The examples may, for instance, be as follows: complementary distribu­
tion of /u/: pool, food, shoe, youth, cool, who, stoop, tube, hoof, booth, boot, rouge,
duke. (Each word is given as an example of different /u/ environment, which
cannot be observed in other words.); contrastive distribution of /u/: book—beak,
foot—fit, book—back, book—beck, book—bark, put—pot, put—port; free varia­
tion in the pronunciation of the words: decapitation /fä iiktepitteij'an, dUjksept-
Iterjan/, deciduous /dilsldjuas, dtlsidjwgs/.

/i/ is " dark" because it is pronounced with the back secondary focus. The Russian /л'/ is veiy " soft" which is the result of the front secondary focus in its articulation.

GLOSSARY OF PHONETIC TERMS

ACCENT /'ffikssnt/ is stress and pitch combined. If a stress occurs in the stepping head without a downward step in pitch, the word concerned is not accented. Stress in such words is usually weakened because there is no change of pitch accompanying them. See STRESS.

ACCENTEME /' ajksentfcm/. The distinctive function makes word accent a separate suprasegmental, or prosodic phonological unit, e.g. primary and weak word accentemes perform word distinctive functions in English: 'billow, be'low, in Russian: мука, му~ка. It also performs form-distinctive functions in Englishr 'import — to im'port, and in Russian: руки (pi), руки (genitive).

ACCENTUAL NUCLEUS /a5k'sentju₃l 'njtrkhss/— that syllable in the word which is effected by a change in pitch direction.

ACCIDENCE/'eksidens/— grammatical rules about the changes in the form of words connected with different modifications of their sound nature. For example: foot — feet, have — has — had.

ACCOMMODATION /e, kuma'deijen/ — adaptation to different adjacent sounds, e.g. in /tut/ /t/ is labialized under the influence of /и/ and Ы1 is a little bit advanced under the influence of /t/.

ACCURACY OF PRONUNCIATION /'aekjurasi av pre, nAnsi'eiJan/ - cor-rect and distinct pronunciation.

_ ACOUSTIC PHONETICS /a'kuistik fau'netiks/ — a branch of phonetics which deals with physical properties of sounds.

ADJACENT SOUNDS /a'^eisant 'saundz/ — sounds that follow each other.

AFFRICATES /'tefnkits/ — the sounds formed during the separation of the articulating organs: in their articulation the complete closure gradually and uninterruptedly opens into a flat-slit narrowing: /tf, ä ^U

ALLOCHRONES /'telekraunz/ — quantitative variants of a phoneme-The term is used by D. Jones and other foreign phoneticians.

ALLOPHONES /'selafaunz/ — qualitative variants or members of one and the same phoneme, which never occur in identical positions, but are said to be m complementary distribution.

ALLOPHONIC TRANSCRIPTION imWtvmk trens'knpjenl - this type of transcription is based on the principle " one symbol per allophone". Tin* transcription provides a special sign for each variant of each phoneme. A pho-2TvJ^{S reü} ? f^teä ⁱⁿ.^th? ^s transcription as a unity of all its alloph
