semivowels

Answer 19

• Between the vowels and obstruent consonants

• /j/ and /w/ in English

Question 20

Vocalic

Answer 20

-Produced with an oral cavity that is not constricted any more than is necessary for the high vowels /i/ and /u/ or the liquids and with the vocal folds adducted for spontaneous voicing
+ vocalic: all vowels + l, r

Question 21

Consonantal

Answer 21

-Consonantal segments produced with an audible constriction in the vocal tract
+ consonantal: All consonants
- consonantal: vowels

Question 22

Sonorant

Answer 22

-Produced without the imbalance of air pressure in the vocal tract that causes turbulence
+sonorant: vowels, nasals, liquids, glides

Question 23

Coronal

Answer 23

Articulated with the tip and/or blade of the tongue; the tongue is raised from its neutral position

Question 24

Anterior

Answer 24

-Produced with an obstruction located at or anterior to that necessary for the alveopalatal /ʃ/ within the oral cavity

Question 25

high

Answer 25

By raising the body of the tongue above the neutral position required for the schwa

Question 26

low

Answer 26

By lowering the body of the tongue below the neutral position for the schwa

Question 27

back

Answer 27

By moving the tongue back from the position for the schwa

Question 28

continuant

Answer 28

Produced with incomplete constriction so that the airflow is not blocked. -continuant: oral/nasal stops and affricates

Question 29

Strident

Answer 29

Friction than is nosier than usual; characterized by considerable noise + strident: all fricatives except /θ/, /ð/, and /h/

Vocal folds vibration

Question 35

Tense

Answer 35

-With the considerable muscular contraction in the root of the tongue +tense: all voiceless sounds

Vowels made anterior to the central plane (schwa)

Question 37
