The process of communication is actualized throughout three stages: psychological, physiological and acoustic. Consequently,
there are three branches of phoneticseach corresponding to a different stage in the communication process. The branch of phonetics
that studies the way in which the air is set in motion, the movements of the speech organs and the coordination of these movements
in
the
production
of
single
sounds
and
trains
of
sounds
is
called
articulatory
phonetics.
-Acoustic phonetics studies the way in which the air vibrates between the speaker’s mouth and the listener’s ear. Acoustic
phonetics presents special interest for research work and applied linguistics. The development of computing technique will give
rise to all sorts of teaching machines.The brunch of phonetics investigating the hearing process is known as auditory phonetics. Its
interests lie more in the sensation of hearing, which is brain activity, than in the physiological working of the ear or the nervous
activity between the ear and the brain. This branch of phonetics is of great interest to anyone who teaches or studies pronunciation.
Phonetics and its Connection with Linguistic and Social Sciences
The study of phonetics has educational and social values for almost everyone, realizing the importance of language in human
communication.As phonetics is one of the branches of linguistics it is closely connected with its other branches.
-Connection with Grammar.Many Soviet linguists of the past considered phonetics to be an integral part of grammar along with
morphology and syntax, and grammar reference books in those years contained a chapter in phonetics.
-Connection of phonetics with morphology is revealed in the fact that establishing grammar categories, morphology often applies
to phonetic rules:
1) vowel shift in formation of
a) irregular plurals: foot [fut] – [fi:t];
b) forms of irregular verbs: swim [swim] – swam [sw æ m] – swum [sw ʌ m];
2)
rules,
regulating
the
reading
of
flexions
of
some
grammatical
categories:
a)
forms
of
past
tense
of
regular
verbs:
played
[pleid],
worked
[w
ɜ:kt],
wanted[w
ɒ
ntid];
b) plural form and possessive case of nouns: tables [teiblz], books [buks], boxes[b ɒ ksiz], boy’s [b iz], cat’s [k æ ts], Alice’s [æ
lisiz].
-Phonetics is also connected with syntax. This connection is revealed in the fact that any sentence being read has always a definite
prosodic contour. There are some tendencies in intonation of such syntactic structures as questions of different types, direct
addresses,
the
author’s
words,
enumeration,
greeting,
saying
good
–bye,
parenthesis.
-Connection with Lexicology,to be precise with the word stock of the language. First of all, this connection is revealed in the fact
that any word cannot exist without its sound shape. Besides, with the help of vowel and consonant shift there appears the formation
of different parts of speech: wise [waiz]- wisdom [wizd ə m], breath [bre θ ] – breathe [ bri:ð ].The change in accentual structure of
the word may also bring change of the part of speech: contest (n) [`k ɒ ntest]- contest (v) [k ə n`test], import (n) [`imp ə t] – import
(v) – [im`p ɔ: t].
Phonetics also defines the sound form of borrowed words: their accented structure and sound composition. For example, Russian
name Бородино is pronounced with the last stressed syllable and vowel sound [o] in stressed position. In English it is pronounced
as [, b ɒ r ɒ ` di:n ] (Borodino), i.e. with two stresses, main and secondary, according to the rhythmical tendency of accentuation of
poly syllabic English words, and with diphthong [əu] at the end of the word, as letter o in final position in English is not reduced.
-Connection with Stylistics. There areStylistic Devices based on repetition of sounds (rhyme – repetition of final sounds of a
syllable, alliteration – repetition of certain sounds or their combinations, assonance – repetition of vowel sounds.
-ONOMATOPOEIAis a combination of speech-sounds, which aims at imitating sounds produced in nature (wind, sea ,
thunder ).by things (machines, tools), by people (sighing, laughter, patter of feet) and by animals.However, the closest connection
of phonetics with stylistics is observed at the intonation level. With the help of intonation means a speaker can express his/her
feelings and emotions, attitude to the situation or the subject of conversation.
Phonostylisticsis a new trend in phonetics that has been lately established for the purposes of studying prosodic and sound
peculiarities of texts, belonging to different genres: narrative and scientific prose, fairy tale, poetry, public and spontaneous speech
and
others.
