-Connection with Dialectology.One of the phonetic research deals withthe sound and intonation peculiarities of speech of the
speakers of dialect and regional types of pronunciation in comparison with the Received Pronunciation.
Phonetics is interested in the way people’s pronunciation forms vary in different social situations. Sociophonetics,quite a new
branch of Phoneticsdeals with the way language and its variations function in the speech community, social environment.
Phonetics comes into contact with a number of non-linguistic sciences which study the process of speech production and speech
perception.
-Connection with Anatomy and Physiology of a human.It is necessary for some specialists to know the anatomy and functions of
the articulators in speech production to teach sounds and also in handling of applied problems.For those who work in speech
therapy, which handles pathological conditions of speech, phonetics forms an essential part of the professional training syllabus.
Phonetics also enters into the training of teachers of the deaf and dumb peopleand can be of relevance to a number of medical and
dental problems.The knowledge of the structure of sound systems, and of the articulatory and acoustic properties of the production
of speech is indispensable in the teaching of foreign languages. The teacher has to know the starting point, which is the sound
system of the pupil’s mother tongue, as well as the aim of his teaching, which is a mastery of the pronunciation of the language to
be learnt. He must be able to point out the differences between these two, and to arrange adequate training exercises.
Specialists in the field of applied Linguistics cooperate with criminal investigators, working out the programmes of a person’s
identity by voice. There is an opinion, that voiceprint is as unique as one’s fingerprints.In our technological age phonetics has
become important in a number of technological fields connected with communication. For the recent 10-15 years there have been
changes in computing technologies of voice simulation and recognition. For instance, in the experimental stage are devices for
“reading” the printed page, that is for converting the printed symbols or letters into synthetic speech. Within the bounds of
possibility is the automatic or phonetic typewriter, which will convert speech directly into printed words on paper.
3. CONCLUSION
Psycholinguistics studies the acquisition of language by children, the extent to which language mediates or structures thinking, the
extent to which language is influenced and itself influences such things as memory, attention, recall and constraints on
reception.The field of phonetics is thus becoming wider and tending to extend over the limits originally set by its purely linguistic
applications. On the one hand, the growing interest in phonetics is doubtless partly due to increasing recognitions of the central
position of language in line of social activity. It is important, however, that the phonetician should remain a linguist and look upon
his science as a study of a spoken language. It is its application to linguistic phenomena that makes phonetics a social science in the
proper sense of the word, not withstanding its increasing need of technical methods, and in spite of its practical applications.
