Description
This course presents basic knowledge about speech acoustics, production, and perception in a combined lecture/laboratory format. Laboratories are to be completed outside of class (approximately 2 hrs/week). This is good preparation for the Speech Science First Exam or for courses in phonology. Students will write several short papers on various topics in speech science and acoustic phonetics: e.g., source-filter theory; myoelastic/aerodynamic theory of phonation, speech sound sources (how, where, and by what physiological mechanisms they are produced), acoustic cues for vowels and for consonant manner, place, and voicing; categorical perception.
