2. The speech sounds produced by pushing the air stream through the mouth are called ............

Explanation

Oral sounds refer to the speech sounds that are produced by pushing the air stream through the mouth. This includes sounds produced by the movement of the lips, tongue, and other oral structures. Labial sounds specifically refer to sounds produced using the lips, while nasal sounds are produced by allowing air to pass through the nose. Dental sounds are produced by the tongue and teeth, and diaphragmatic sounds refer to sounds produced using the diaphragm. Therefore, the correct answer is "Oral sounds" as it encompasses all speech sounds produced through the mouth.

3. Which one of the following words that violates the phonological rules of English language?

4. The study of human speech sounds in a language that form systematized patterns is called ..................

Explanation

Phonology is the study of human speech sounds in a language that form systematized patterns. It focuses on the organization and structure of sounds within a language, including how sounds interact with each other and how they are used to create meaning. Phonology examines phonemes, which are the smallest units of sound in a language, and studies how they are combined and arranged in different languages. It also explores the rules and patterns that govern the pronunciation of words and phrases. Phonology is an important field in linguistics and helps to understand the sounds and structure of languages.

5. The branch of linguistics that studies human speech and concerns with the physical properties of the sound is .......................

Explanation

Phonetics is the branch of linguistics that studies human speech and focuses on the physical properties of sounds. It analyzes the production, transmission, and perception of speech sounds, including their articulation, acoustic properties, and auditory perception. Phonetics helps in understanding how sounds are produced and perceived by humans, and it plays a crucial role in fields such as language teaching, speech therapy, and forensic linguistics. Acoustics, on the other hand, is a related field that deals with the physical properties of sound waves, but it is not specifically focused on human speech.

6. ...................... are the abstractions of speech unit which differ one meaning from another.

Explanation

Phonemes are the smallest units of sound in a language that can differentiate one word from another. They are the abstract representations of speech sounds and are crucial in conveying meaning. By changing a phoneme in a word, we can completely alter its meaning. For example, in English, changing the initial phoneme in the words "cat" and "bat" from /k/ to /b/ changes the meaning from a feline animal to a flying mammal. Therefore, phonemes play a vital role in distinguishing words and conveying precise meaning in language.

7. The words below are all affricates, except ........................

Explanation

An affricate is a consonant sound that begins as a stop (complete closure of the vocal tract) and then is released as a fricative (partial closure of the vocal tract). In this list, all the words except "loch" have affricate sounds. "Watch" has the affricate sound /tʃ/, "screech" has the affricate sound /skriːtʃ/, "judge" has the affricate sound /dʒ/, and "such" has the affricate sound /sʌtʃ/. However, "loch" does not have an affricate sound. It is pronounced as /lɒx/ or /lɒk/ depending on the dialect, with a clear /x/ or /k/ sound at the end.

Submit
8. Orthography is ...............................................

Explanation

Orthography refers to the alphabetic spelling of words that represent the way they are pronounced. It is the system of writing in a language that uses a set of symbols or letters to represent the sounds of that language. In other words, orthography is the way words are spelled in relation to their pronunciation. This includes the rules and conventions of spelling, such as silent letters or specific letter combinations that produce certain sounds.

9. Which of the following pairs correctly complies with the order of Voiced and Voiceless sound

Explanation

The pair "Dime and time" correctly complies with the order of Voiced and Voiceless sound. In this pair, the initial sound in "Dime" is voiced (/d/), while the initial sound in "time" is voiceless (/t/). Voiced sounds are produced with the vocal cords vibrating, while voiceless sounds are produced without vocal cord vibration.

Submit
10. The word "changeling" is an example of ......................sound.

Explanation

The word "changeling" contains the sound /n/, which is a nasal sound. Nasal sounds are produced when air flows through the nose while the mouth is closed. In this word, the /n/ sound is produced by closing the mouth and allowing air to flow through the nose. Therefore, "changeling" is an example of a nasal sound.
