I've literally had so many "Ohhhhhhhh so that's what that is" moments right now - thank you! I've been studying with a text book and this is making things fall into place
Another great video! It's interesting to note the difference in phonetic transcription and pronunciation between American English and other world Englishes. I'm Australian for example, so when I paused the video at the last example of the three sentences written phonetically to test myself before you read them I had to put on my "American cap" to read them correctly. For us, words like FART, YOUR, DIRECTION and HOVERCRAFT are transcribed respectively as fɑːt, jɔː, dɪˈrɛkʃən and ˈhɒvəkrɑːft.
Thanks a million for sharing this mind-blowing video with phonetics. My lecturer never ever put this beautiful information in my head let alone my heart ❤️ I really appreciate your time and you ❤️
Thank you so much for the effort you put in your videos! Honestly, you explain the material way better than my professor🥺😅 Besides, I am an international student and often struggle with transcriptions, but your way of explaining helped a lot!🙏
@@FingtamLanguages not everyone is so kind to take part of their time to teach someone else what they know and the best part for free. Thank you so much! You are awesome
Alot alot better than my professor.. thanks alot for such explanations... I was going to be crazy if I hadn't find this. Thanks professor! (You deserve to be called one)
This was really helpful, and you made it look so easy to learn that I actually did not find difficulty to understand the whole subject ! Thank you for this
The way you explain things are super clear and understandable!! However I do wish it wasn't so English-focused. Linguistics is the study of language, not the English language!
I have learned so far in this. I really now understand the phonetics and others. It really a big and great help as I teach linguistics to my students. Thanks.
Fingtam Languages sure ,looking forward to it . phonetics is one of those hard subjects atleast for me , but the clarity in how u put it out to the audience was amazing !! hoping to learn more from you . Kudos 👍🏼
I'm seriously thinking of doing linguistics and I've really enjoyed watching your videos. I'm a total beginner at this but I'm loving everything so far. That being said, I hope you can help me answer this question. Looking at the IPA symbols, I am a bit confused for some of them. For e.g. the symbol you have represented for no (oʊ), I see it written as əʊ on other websites. Similarly, the symbol ɛ as in head, is seen as 'e' on other charts. Why is it different like this, if it's an international chart? Hope you can answer my question and thanks for these videos!
I've had this question for a long time too. What did you find? It feels as if authors come up with their own symbols for sounds depending on the language they speak.
The symbols have 1:1 correspondences to speech sounds. Because people with different accents can pronounce "o" slightly differently, we use a different symbol to reflect the difference in pronunciation. What you came across looks like it's reflecting the difference between the RP (British) way of saying "no" and the American way.
I have taken so much resourceful information from this video. However, what I am struggling with right now is that, how does one learn the international phonetic alphabet? It is seems way too complex.
actually helpful, I felt so left alone with the brief introduction in my university, they gave us the chart and say "yeah, uh you gotta know all this now by the way"... how am I supposed to know all that stuff just by looking at a chart?
Love 💖 the video but I could not help smiling 😊 - I live in England (although English is an additional language for me) and here “cot” and “caught” are somewhat different... ;-)
Would be nice if, in order to include signed languages in the academic setting, a category of “signed phonetics” would be recognised in all linguistics courses! And morphemes, and and and.... might open people’s eyes and minds a bit, make them realise they are not studying linguistics of all languages, but only spoken ones, and signed languages are every bit a language as spoken languages!
Cate Deans Yeah, there are actually a lot of linguists who study signed languages just like others study spoken languages. Unfortunately, I am unqualified to talk about sign languages because I know almost nothing about them.
Fingtam Languages Yeah, totally not pointing fingers... just as a sign interpreter as well as a language and linguistics lover, I’m noticing the complete split between the two camps - which I really don’t think is good for anyone, as it continues to marginalise the language status of signed languages in a time when advocates are trying to explain to governments and educationalists the importance of sign languages for the Deaf. I keep getting asked to participate in oral focused research, where maybe wider nets would lead to interesting comparisons... I’m keen for at least intro level info to be included in academic programs to open everyone’s eyes :)
