Phonology is just one of
several aspects of language. It is related to other aspects such as
phonetics, morphology, syntax, and pragmatics. Here is an illustration that shows the place of phonology in an interacting hierarchy of levels in linguistics: (http://www.sil.org/linguistics/GlossaryOfLinguisticTerms/WhatIsPhonology.htm) On the other hand, based on my reading on an article from internet (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonologyhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonology), phonetic concerns the physical production, acoustic transmission and perception of the sounds of speech. Physical production or articulatory phonetic is the study of how speech sounds are produced by human vocal apparatus. It shows us on how every sounds are produced using our articulation organ. Our anatomy of articulation organ can be found from: http://www.sil.org/mexico/ling/glosario/e005bi-organsart.htm. From this link, you can see consonant Chart for English. Just click on this link and take a look!! http://www.pucpr.edu/facultad/omiranda/phonetics.pdf For Vowel Chart for English. http://www.phonetics.ucla.edu/course/chapter1/vowels.html People always confuse with phonology and phonetic. So, here are the comparison between both:

But, I'm working on it right now and hope to better my pronunciation before I graduate. I found that learning about phonology and phonetic is quite interesting. Why? Although it was really difficult ti say and pronoun some alphabets such as /s/, /r/ and /x/, I found that it was quite enjoyable. At least I knew how to pronoun these alphabets almost correctly and others could understand what i was trying to say. Besides, it was unimaginable thing before that every single organs, I means articulation organ such as mouth and also our alveolar, involved in producing sounds. For example, to say the alphabet / a/ , I had to open my mouth the widest. It was kind of funny to each other' s mouth when saying the alphabet /a/. So, right now, I promise that I will better myself and master all of this things before I can teach in the future. I do believe that what is happening now will affect what will happen in the future. I aware the importance of teaching the correct thing to our young generation because they are our future leader. | ||||||||||
