WATER IS THE DEFAULT CASE. IF H20 SHOWS UP ANYWHERE, WE ASSUME IT IS LIQUID. But under conditions of freezing or evaporation, we have different material realizations. English 306A; Harris

/t/ & [t] phones, phonemes, allophones
[/] [t˘] [tH] If you get a /t/--or, more precisely, a voiceless alveolar stop--in English, the default will be the vanilla flavoured, alveolar, unaspirated, unlengthened variant. Special conditions: beginnings of stressed syllables, before another alveolar stop, before a voiced sound, you get special variants. [t] English 306A; Harris

Phone, phoneme, allophone
Phone: a speech sound Phoneme: set of related speech sounds Allophone: a member of a set of related speech sounds (i.e., an allophone is a member of a phoneme) Phone: a speech sound <CLICK> Phoneme: set of related speech sounds <CLICK> Allophone: a member of a set of related speech sounds (i.e., an allophone is a member of a phoneme) <CLICK> /t/ [tH] English 306A; Harris

12
Phone, phoneme, allophone
Does not make sense except in terms of some specific phoneme There is no such thing as “an allophone”, only “an allophone of some phoneme” It is defined by its relationship to a phoneme /t/ [tH] English 306A; Harris
13
Phone, phoneme, allophone
[tH] is not “an allophone”, it is “an allophone of /t/ (in English)” English /t/ [tH] English 306A; Harris
14
Phone, phoneme, allophone
A phone can be an allophone of more than one phoneme (in a given language). English /t/ /d/ [R] English 306A; Harris

21
Phone, phoneme, allophone
A phone can be an allophone of different phonemes in different languages. English Spanish English Spanish /t/, /d/ /r/ /D/ /d/ Something some students have trouble with is thinking of phones as more-or-less absolute things, like atoms or molecules, but thinking of allophones and phonemes in RELATIVE terms. That can be a stumbling block. But they are highly relative. What is a phoneme in one language may not be in another. What is an allophone of one phoneme in one context, isn’t in another. Take these two phones <CLICK> They are both part of the phonetic inventories of Spanish and English, but in different ways. They are members of different sets. Let’s look at the phonemic level <CLICK> 3 of them are phonemes of English <CLICK> 2 of them are phonemes of Spanish<CLICK> What does this mean? (mental conception, sets of allophones) Now, what are the set relationships? The flap is an allophone of both English phonemes, /t/ and /d/ <CLICK> But in Spanish it is an allophone of /r/. <CLICK> What about eth? In English, it is an allophone of eth, the voiced interdental fricative. <CLICK>In Spanish, it is an allophone of /d/, the voiced alveolar stop. <CLICK> The English groupings go this way <CLICK>. The Spanish groupings go this way <CLICK> [R] [D] English 306A; Harris
