Unit 3 Phonology

Phonology is part of the linguistic which studies human system sounds in languages. It can show how to make specific sounds using phonemes. According to (Spratt, Pulverness, and Williams, 2011). It is study´s sound and its parts used in a language and these features has phonemes, word stress, sentence stress and intonation. All of them are required to produce language in order to convey ideas, all of them differ how pronounce vowels and by the stress that human does. Another linguistic argued that “phonemes, the smallest units of speech sounds that distinguish one word from another, are complexes of binary features, such as voiced/unvoiced and aspirated/unaspirated (jakobson, 1928). Trubetskoy (1938) that the phoneme functionally as the smallest unit between the language structure, and he further put these phonemes away their distinctive features. All linguists have concluded that phonology study the humans sound and these sounds differs from how to pronounce the multiple phonemes that human´s repertoire has. As future teacher is needed to have a knowledge in phonology to control students peaking skills to lead them in the correct ways of morpheme such drills. It is suggestable teach phonemes symbols to let them know who to pronounce.
