PHONETIC SYMBOLS FOR CONSONANTS
A phonetic system having vowel phonetic symbols separated into full sound symbols and half sound symbols, and consonant phonetic symbols. The full sounds symbols are represented by letters in the English alphabet. The half sound symbols are represented by letters in the English alphabet with a predetermined symbol. Most consonant phonetic symbols are taken from consonant letters of English vocabularies. A phonetic diagram where the vowel phonetic symbols and the consonant phonetic symbols are systematically arranged therein is provided to allow user to easily visualize the vowel and consonant phonetic symbols. The phonetics utilizes direct phonetic spelling method, so as to enable easier obtaining of correct pronunciation. It also helps avoiding the possibility of misreading by utilizing combination of letters that do not appear in the English language.

LO QUE APRENDI EN LA CLASE
con seidero que esta clase me ayudo a mejorar mi pronunciación, ya que fue lo que más trabajamos.
Por otra parte aprendí a relacionarme con los símbolos fonéticos de las palabras y el sonido de cada una dellas, también aprendí a manejar las partes de mi garganta y boca para una mejor pronunciación.

WHERE IS THE LOVE?
WHERE IS THE LOVE?
INSTRUCTIONS: check the phonetic symbol and transcript to a word in present tense.
What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't / / no mamas _________
I think the whole world / / to the drama _____________
Only / / to things that'll bring you trauma ____________
Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism

In the USA , the big CIA
The Bloods and The Crips and the KKK
But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate, yeah
Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how a anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all
People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek
Father, Father, Father help us
Send us some guidance from above

The love, the love
It just ain't the same, always / /________________
New days are strange, is the world insane
If love and peace is so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations droppin' bombs
Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones
With the ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young
So ask yourself is the lovin' really gone
So I could ask myself really what is goin' wrong
In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin'
in
Makin' wrong decisions, only visions of them dividends
Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother
A war is goin' on but the reason's undercover
The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth then you never know love
Where's the love, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the truth, y'all, come on (I don't know)

MINIMAL PAIRS
In phonology, minimal pairs are pairs of words or phrases in a particular language, which differ in only one phonological element, such as a phone, phoneme, toneme or chroneme and have a distinct meaning. They are used to demonstrate that two phones constitute two separate phonemes in the language.
As an example for English vowels, the pair "let" + "lit" can be used to demonstrate that the phones [ɛ] (in let) and [ɪ] (in lit) do in fact represent distinct phonemes /ɛ/ and /ɪ/jueves, 2 de abril de 2009

NIM CHIMSKY
Nim Chimpsky (November 19, 1973 – March 10, 2000) was a chimpanzee who was the subject of an extended study of animal language acquisition (codenamed 6.001) at Columbia University, led by Herbert S. Terrace.
The validity of the study is the subject of dispute, as Terrace argued that all ape-language studies, including Project Nim, were based on misinformation—from the chimps. R. Allen and Beatrix Gardner did a similar study known as Project Washoe, in which the chimpanzee was also raised like a human child. Washoe was given affection and participated in everyday social activity with her adoptive family. Her ability to communicate was far more developed than Nim's. Nim lived 24 hours a day with his human family from birth; Washoe had spent her first 10 months in a research laboratory prior to being moved to a language study. But both chimps could use fragments of American Sign Language to make themselves understood.
Chimpsky was given his name as a pun on that of Noam Chomsky, the foremost theorist of human language structure and generative grammar at the time, who held that humans alone were "hard wired" to develop language.[1]

Project Nim was an attempt to go further than Project Washoe. Terrace and his colleagues aimed to use more rigorous experimental techniques, and the intellectual discipline of the experimental analysis of behavior, so that the linguistic abilities of the apes could be put on a more secure footing.
Roger Fouts has written: "Since 98.7% of the DNA in humans and chimps is identical, some scientists (but not Noam Chomsky) believed that a chimp raised in a human family, and using ASL (American Sign Language), would shed light on the way language is acquired and used by humans. Project Nim, headed by behavioral psychologist Herbert Terrace at Columbia University, was conceived in the early 1970s as a challenge to Chomsky's thesis that only humans have language." [1]
Attention was particularly focused on Nim's ability to make different responses to different sequences of signs and to emit different sequences in order to communicate different meanings. However, the results, according to Fouts, were not as impressive as had been reported from the Washoe project. Terrace, however, was skeptical of Project Washoe and, according to the critics, went to great lengths to discredit it.Project Nim was an attempt to go further than Project Washoe.
