Document Summary

Overview: approximately half of the exam will be review of previous topics already covered on exams 1 and 2. For this section, the study guides for the first 2 exams will be most useful. Fricatives: place of articulation, strident/non-strident, voicing: **see cheat sheet. In other words, be able to apply conceptual understanding of source-filter theory to a description of the sound: be able to relate properties seen on a spectrogram to those seen on a spectral display and/ or waveform display. Fricatives ** see cheat sheet: be able to. Identify fricatives in a spectrogram, spectrum and waveform display: use spectral peak intensity to determine fricative place of articulation. Identify/distinguish strident from non-strident fricatives strident: more constriction, noisier, more intense (s, z, sh, edj) non-strident: less constriction, less noisy, less intense (f, v, theta, th, h) Plosives **see lab notes/email ta and practice on bb/ office hours!!
