Phonetics Definition 

Definition of the Etymology from the Greek is "Sound and Voicce".

The branch of linguistics that deals with the sound of speech  and thir prodution, combination, description by written symbol. adjective; Phonetician.

A linguist who specializes in phonetics is know as a phonetician.

As discussed below,the boundaries between the displines of phoneties and phonology aren't always sharlpy defined.

Three Branches Of Phonetics

Phonetics is devided  into three main branches  :

• Articullatory Phonetics is the study the way the vocal organs are used to produce speech sound.

Articulatory phonetics , is the study of how the mechanism of speaking tools that exist in the human body to produce the sounds of language.

How is the sound of the language is spoken and created , and how the language sounds are classified based on their articulation. The type of phonetic is relating to linguistic so by linguists particularly phonetic experts tend to put in linguistics . Phonetic articulatory phonetics also called organic or physiological phonetics , studying the mechanism of how the tools work and produce human speech sounds of language , and how these sounds are classified .

• Acoustic Phonetics is the study of the physical properties of speech sounds.

Acoustic phonetics learns the sounds of language as the event of Physical or natural phenomena. The sounds that investigated the vibration frequency , amplitude , intensity. The study of the nature of sound and classify sounds based on the nature of the sound . Phonetics of this type relates to physics.

• Auditory Phonetics is the study of the way people perceive speech sounds.

Auditory phonetics learns how the mechanics of the ear receives the sounds of language as air vibrations . Phonetic audiotoris more with regard to medicine, namely neurology , although there is a possibility of linguistics also worked in both the phonetic field .

Relation to Phonology

In contatrac to phonetics, phonology is the study of how sounds and gesture pattren in and across language, relating such conccerns with other levels and aspects of language.

While it is widely agreed that phonology is is grounded in phonetics, phonology is a distinct branch of linguistics, concerned with sounds and gesture as abstract units (e.g.,distinctive features, phonemes, morae, syllables, etc.) and their conditioned variation (via, e.g., allophonics rules, contraints, or derivational rules). Phonology relates to phonetics via the set of distinctive feature, which map the abstract representation of speech units to articulatory gesture, acoustic signals, and / or perceptual representations.
