The notes cover three main branches (articulatory, acoustic, and auditory phonetics) with examples, then distinguish speech, phones, and allophones using bracketed sound representations.

 \nPhonetics is the scientific study of speech sounds—how they are:  \n• produced by the speaker,  \n• transmitted through air,  \n• heard and understood by the listener.  \nIt studies actual sounds, not letters.  \nExample:  \nThe word cat has three sounds:  \n[k] + [æ] + [t]  \nPhonetics studies how these sounds are made and heard, not how the word is spelled.  \nConnect with me on @ @ NET Prep with DAKSHITA Ma'am, 5:00 PM  \nUse Code “Dakshita  \n@NET Prep with Dakshita Ma'am  \n\" for DISCOUNT.  \nBranches of Phonetics  \n\n| Branch | What it studies | Easy example |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Articulatory Phonetics | How speech organs produce sounds | How lips close to say [p] |\n| Acoustic Phonetics | Physical properties of sound (frequency, amplitude) | Measuring pitch and loudness |\n| Auditory Phonetics | How the ear and brain perceive sound | How we hear the difference between [b] and [p] |\n\nConnect with me on @ @ NET Prep with DAKSHITA Ma'am, 5:00 PM  \nDakshita  \n@ Prep with  \nDISCOUNT.  \n5:00 PM  \nUse Code “Dakshita  \n@NET Prep with Dakshita Ma'am  \n\" for DISCOUNT.  \nSpeech vs Phone vs Allophone  \nSpeech  \n• Continuous sound flow  \n• Physical and unbroken  \nExample: When we speak normally, we do not pause between sounds.  \nPhone  \n• Smallest identifiable speech sound  \n• Written in [square brackets] Example:  \npick → [p][ɪ][k]  \nAllophone  \n• Different phones of the same phoneme  \n• Meaning does not change  \n• Example:  \n• pin → [pʰɪn](aspirated p)  \n• spin → [spɪn](unaspirated p)  \n• Both have the same phoneme /p/ .  \nAspirated sounds are consonants produced with a strong, audible puff of air (like /pʰ/ in \"pit\"), while unaspirated sounds lack this burst of air (like /p/ in \"spit\") . Aspiration occurs mainly at the start of stressed syllables in English, whereas unaspirated sounds occur  \nafter 's' or in unstressed positions.  \nConnect with me on @ @ NET Prep with DAKSHITA Ma'am, 5:00 PM  \nUse Code “Dakshita  \n@NET Prep with Dakshita Ma'am  \n\" for DISCOUNT.  \nInternational Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)  \nWhat is IPA?  \nThe International Phonetic Alphabet is a system where:  \n• One sound = one symbol  \n• Same symbol worldwide  \nKey facts:  \n• Founded: 1886 (official: 1888)  \n• Organisation: International Phonetic Association  \n• Latest major chart: 2020 Why IPA is used:  \n• To write sounds accurately  \n• To avoid spelling confusion  \nConnect with me on @ @ NET Prep with DAKSHITA Ma'am, 5:00 PM  \nUse Code Dakshita  \n@NET Prep with Dakshita Ma'am  \nfor DISCOUNT.  \nConnect with me on @ @ NET Prep with DAKSHITA Ma'am, 5:00 PM  \nUse Code “Dakshita  \n@NET Prep with Dakshita Ma'am  \n\" for DISCOUNT.  \n• Columns = place of articulation (where sound is made)  \n• Rows = manner of articulation (how sound is made)  \n• Left side = voiceless  \n• Right side = voiced  \n• Example:  \n•[p](voiceless)—[b](voiced)  \nConnect with me on @ @ NET Prep with DAKSHITA Ma'am, 5:00 PM  \nUse Code “Dakshita  \n@NET Prep with Dakshita Ma'am  \n\" for DISCOUNT.  \nVowels  \n\n| Symbol | Example |\n| --- | --- |\n| iː | see |\n| ɪ | sit |\n| e | bed |\n| æ | cat |\n| ɑː | car |\n| ɒ | lot |\n| ɔː | thought |\n| ʊ | book |\n| uː | food |\n| ʌ | strut |\n| ɜː | nurse |\n| ə | comma |\n\nConnect with me on @ @ NET Prep with DAKSHITA Ma'am, 5:00 PM","cbCaithQju8ukFBd","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaithQju8ukFBd","pdf",1229229,"English","# What is Phonetics?\n## Branches of Phonetics\n## Speech vs Phone vs Allophone\n## International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)\n## Vowels","[{\"question\":\"What does phonetics study, and how is it different from spelling?\",\"answer\":\"Phonetics studies speech sounds—how they are produced, transmitted, and heard—rather than how words are spelled.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the three branches of phonetics?\",\"answer\":\"The notes describe articulatory phonetics (speech organ production), acoustic phonetics (sound properties like frequency and amplitude), and auditory phonetics (how the ear and brain perceive sounds).\"},{\"question\":\"How do speech, phones, and allophones differ?\",\"answer\":\"Speech is a continuous sound flow; a phone is the smallest identifiable speech sound written in brackets; an allophone is a different phone of the same phoneme that does not change meaning.\"}]","Phonetics Notes by Dakshita Singh | PDF",1789982761,48]
