| Abstract | ||
| Not all languages have voiceless plosives of this type, but English does and the initial [p] [t] [k] sounds of words such as pound, time, keen, are aspirated. The symbol for aspiration a superscript [h] following the sound affected - so [ph th kh] and so on. Aspiration is generally thought to be the product of straightforward and allophonic rule which strengthens voiceless stops. Some phonologists argue that sounds, which are aspirated, are produced with spreading of the vocal cords, others suggest that aspiration is produced by a delay in the onset of voicing after a stop closure has been released, as in the pronunciation [phɪt], in which it is claimed that there is a delay between the release of the bilabial stop closure and the onset of voicing for the following vowel [ɪ]. Aspirated stops are also referred to as fortis stop. The study falls into three sections with an introduction and conclusions. The fist section deals with aspiration in English. It clarifiers voice onset time, the closure release and aspiration rules. Section two is devoted to the concept of aspiration in Arabic and the different phases in the production of Arabic plosives. Finally, the are the major findings that the researcher reached throughout the study. | ||
