SPCH13005 Linguistics and Phonetics 2

Course details

This course will focus on acoustic phonetics, syntactic analysis of English and phonetic transcription of connected speech. Students will learn to understand normal grammatical patterns and how people speak on a day to day basis and be able to describe and analyse this in order to understand the differences found in people with communication disorders. An understanding of the relation of vocal tract shape and gestures to the sounds that result is essential in the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of speech disorders. An understanding of the basic units and patterning of English grammar will also assist students in working with both oral and written language in educational settings.
