| Purpose: Essentially, this course is a basic introduction to the disciplines more formally known as 'phonetics' and 'phonology'. The aim of this module is therefore to enable students to define, identify and illustrate a set of basic concepts used in the description of the sound structure of languages in general, and to relate the meaningful properties of sound structure to sound production and perception. The module is very practical in that it will help students to describe the basic sounds and sound structure of any language they choose to study.
