General Phonetics which studies the human sound due to principles of Theoretical Phonetics. It is a part of General Linguistics.

Descriptive phonetics which studies the phonetic system of a certain language.

Historical (diachronical) phonetics which studies the sound changes in the development of a language.

Comparative-typological phonetics studies the phonetic features of two or more languages of different systems.

Comparison of phonetic-phonological units is carried out in Structural, Genetic, Areal and Comparative Typology (panchronic, diachronic and synchronic). The panchronic/diachronic comparison is not used because it is helpless and has no scientific value to compare genetically and areally distant non-cognate English and Uzbek.
