Phoneme_production

Although much attention has been devoted to details of phonological and acoustic aspects of speech articulation, so far no comprehensive account of the kinesiology of phoneme production has been formulated. The present work attempts to do this as it describes the kinesiological mechanism underlying articulation.

In phoneme generation certain elements of physical science are recognizable, such as the interactions of concurrent forces across shared nodes of their intersections (centers of mass), frameworks centered on such nodes, distortions and equalizations of frameworks, and symmetrical agent-antagonist relations. The material is built up in terms of these elements through a series of steps in a sequence of development from simple to complex structures. Each point established can undergo observation and verification before moving to the next point. Looking at such a mechanism in oro-lingual activity introduces a novel perspective in phonetics and phonology.
