Anya Lunden, Associate Professor
This course connects the acoustic signal of speech sounds to sound patterns within different human languages. Students will learn to use phonetics software to examine, measure, and analyze human speech sounds. The acoustic differences between different speech sounds, such as what distinguishes consonants from vowels, will be introduced and explored. We'll also examine what influences people's perceptions of sounds.
