The Physics Of Unvoiced Sound

Summary of Interpretation: Given the information provided in Interpretation A, the clinician diagnosed Kara-Lynn with a severe phonological disorder. This diagnosis was made based on evidence provided by testing results, clinician observations, and speech analyses. Kara-Lynn demonstrated phoneme collapses into /d/ in place of stops (/p/, /t/, /k/, /g/), fricatives (/s/, /z/, /θ/, /ð/), and some consonant clusters (/tr/, /gr/) across all word positions. For example, Kara-Lynn produced /diə/ for “seal,” /dædɚ/ for “treasure,” and /dədudɚ/ for “computer.” Kara-Lynn also presented with active phonological processes of final consonant deletion (/fɪ/ for “fish”), cluster reduction (/tul/ for “school”), vocalization (/ɛləkə/ for “helicopter”), and deaffrication (/ʃi/ for “cheese”). She also presented with inconsistent patterns of initial-consonant deletion (/ɑʊps/ for “house”, /ɪʒ/ for “bridge”). In most instances, Kara-Lynn presented with both final consonant deletion and another phonological process, which markedly impacted her speech intelligibility, as when she produced /lɑʊ/ for “clown,” demonstrating both final consonant deletion and cluster reduction. She also expressed a high percentage of CV (27%) and CVC (29%) syllable and word shapes, with little other variation. Analysis of Kara-Lynn’s speech sample revealed similar errors exhibited during formal assessment, including phoneme collapse into /d/, high occurrences of initial and final consonant deletion and cluster

The Sounds in Words subtest of the Goldman Fristoe Test of Articulation – Third Edition (GFTA-3) was administered to assess L.R.’s speech sound inventory. The Sounds-in-Words subtest was used to elicit L.R.’s spontaneous speech production of single words using pictures and/or verbal cues. The subtest also assesses articulation of speech sounds in all word positions at the single word

In the play Quiet Torrential Sound by Joan Ackermann, immediately introduced are the main characters Monica and Claire, two sisters who seem different from the start. As the story plays out, the scene does not change, but the characters do, even though it may not be super obvious. It is clear that the two sisters have contrasting personalities and treat others in a different way, but what isn’t immediately clear, is that the two also have just as many things in common. While Monica may seem like the older, stronger, and more confident sister in the beginning, as the play goes on a different side of her gets revealed that shows her lack of self-confidence and her inner insecurities.

On the articulation subtest of the DEAP X produced errors /ϴ/→ /f/, /ð/ → /d/ in all positions, as well as /k/→ /t/ and /g/→ /d/ in initial position. She also produced /ts/ → /tʃ/ in the final position of a word. X produced lateralizations of /ʃ/ and /s/ in all positions. The phonology subtest assess phonological processes in both single words and connected speech. On the phonology subtest she demonstrated fronting of /k/→ /t/ in initial position and blends. The single word-connected speech subtest indicated inconsistent errors when fronting /t/→ /k/. The scores based on the three subtests indicate the client produces distortions of /s/ and /sh/, as well as typical simplifications for /k/, /g/, /ϴ/, and /ð/

Superfreakanomics is set up in chapters of short excerpts that dive into different topics ranging from illegal industries, such as prostitution and other examples, such as the safety behind using car seats and the altruistic nature of humans. Each chapter provides many stories, data, background, and commentary on how this system is functioning poorly, could be improved, or related to other larger issues in society, such as combating terrorism. In their introduction, Levitt and Dubner discuss seeing the world from the perspective of economists and include being a person in an undeveloped nation such as India and the transition from horses to cars, as well as talking about statistics and the bending of knowledge. This introduction shows that every day events can be quite interesting and can be a starting point to conversation.

Sound is a pressure wave, where repeated cycles of displacement create regions of high and low pressure over time. Rather, compression is the region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are closest together (high pressure). Likewise, rarefaction is the region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are furthest apart (low pressure).

Percussors have the same effect as hacking, beating or cupping, and use movements that are in a

Ibrahim, Kilpatrick, Reilly, and Vogel (2009) performed a comparative study of the acoustic measures of hypernasality in the speech of school-aged children aged 2-14 years, some with cleft lip/palate and others without cleft lip/palate. Ibrahim, Kilpatrick, Reilly, and Vogel (2009) provided perceptual ratings of the hyper/hyponasality of vowel production in the children’s speech. Any child who was sick or had acquired an upper respiratory infection was excluded from the study, as was any child with cleft lip/palate who also had any other disorders or comorbidities. The study included a perceptual assessment in which two speech therapists were required to agree upon the perception of the phonemes the child produced. Each child held and sustained two vowels, followed by production of two CVC words without nasal phonemes. This process was repeated five times with each child. The

A complex layering of different types of sound in the film is intentionally to present the narrative, while there is no dialog or on screen caption. In Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), diegetic sounds and non-diegetic sounds are played as the important roles in explaining the scenarios. Kubrick first states that the main concept of the film is forced more on a visual experience than anything else; however, the layers of sound have actually created a strong impact and attract the audience’s attention. While Dave Bowman sitting in front of the dashboard, he seems facing some abnormal, so he starts to operate the systems to check out what went wrong, and then take action to safe himself. Although the scene is dark and quiet, the

Within the excerpt, the academic economist Steven D. Levitt and author and journalist Stephen J. Dubner, authors of the book, SuperFreakonomics, discuss one of the many demographic markers being factored into a developing algorithm that is being used to track potential terrorists within the United Kingdom. The authors state, in accordance with the developer of the algorithm, Ian Horsley, that having a Muslim name increases the likelihood that one is a suspected terrorist, specifying that the more Muslim one’s name is, the more likely it is that that individual is a terrorist. This claim is brash at best. In asserting that individuals with Muslim origins are more likely to be terrorists, the authors overgeneralize. Terrorism is driven by the

The three terms/concepts are mixing, diegetic, and sound effects. Diegetic effects include sound within the cinematic film sphere, including mixing that combines tracks of various sounds into synchronization with the film, and additional sound that includes dialogue and sound effects. The unique mixing of the diegetic element of sound begins in the opening scene consisting of a black screen and the mixing of sounds in a montage of September 11, 2001 audio calls which creates a backstory of the film. The date on the black screen indicates the horrific September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks carried out by Al Qaeda in the United States on the World Trade Center Twin Towers.

A drawback of infrasonic correspondence is the generally abnormal state of foundation clamor in this low recurrence range caused by wind and human produced commotion. Machines, for example, automobiles, planes, and generators are progressively infringing on elephant correspondence channels as the human populace keeps on developing and as sightseers negligently attack the elephants' space with commotion

3. Write the following words in phonetic transcription, according to your pronunciation. Examples: knot [nat]; delightful [dilaɪtfəl] or [dəlaɪtfəl]. Some of you may pronounce some of these words the same.

All of us here speak English. And all of us here have probably wondered why Knee, Know, and Knife have the letter ‘K’ in front of them. What point does this serve? It doesn’t change the pronunciation of the word at all, so why is it there?
