Examples of phonetics in the following topics:
-
- Phonetics is a field that studies the sounds of a language.
- However, English phonetics can be tricky: In English, the pronunciation of a word does not always relate to the way it is spelled.
- Here are some common phonetic irregularities:
- For example: "concede" and
"conceed" are the same phonetically, but only "concede" is
the proper spelling.
- "Right," for example,
does not resemble its phonetic spelling whatsoever.
-
- There are three levels of processing for verbal data: structural, phonetic, and semantic.
- Phonetic processing is how we hear the word—the sounds it makes when the letters are read together.
- Phonetic processing is deeper than structural processing; that is, we are more likely to remember verbal information if we process it phonetically.
- To return to the example of trying to remember the name of a restaurant: if the name of the restaurant has no semantic meaning to you (for instance, if it's a word in another language, like "Vermicelli"), you might still be able to remember the name if you have processed it phonetically and can think, "It started with a V sound and it rhymed with belly."

- Phonetics is the study of individual speech sounds; phonology is the study of phonemes, which are the speech sounds of an individual language.
- These include phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics.
-
- Primarily producing work in stone, wood, and metal, they are well known for their "Codices," or phonetic pictures in which their history and genealogies were written.
-
- After processing the initial auditory signal, speech sounds are further processed to extract acoustic cues and phonetic information.
-
- The Mixtec are well known in the anthropological world for their codices, or phonetic pictures, in which they wrote their history and genealogies in deerskin in the "fold-book" form.

- NREM, or non-REM, is pronounced phonetically as well, with the "N" standing alone ["en-rehm"].)
