1. From what points of view can speech sounds be analyzed?

2. What physical properties of speech sounds do you know?

3. How does the power, vibrator, resonator, obstructer mechanisms work?

4.What are articulatory differences between vowel, consonants and sonorants?

5. What are the four main principles of consonant classification?

6. What are the principal differences in the articulation bases of the English and Ukrainian consonants?

7. What are the principles of vowel classification?

8. How are vowels classified according to the movement of the bulk of the tongue?

9. What do you know about the principle of lip participation and the degree of tenseness in the articulation of vowels?

10. How are vowels classified according to their tenseness and length?

11. What is the difference between checked and unchecked vowels?

12. What do you know about stability of articulation in vowel production?

13. What are the differences in the articulation bases of English and Ukrainian vowel sounds?

1. Explain the articulation of /p, t, k/ and /b, d, g/ from the viewpoint of the work of the vocal cords and the force of exhalation.
