Phonetics 2 - Vowels

Welcome to Crash Course Linguistics! Linguistics is everywhere and is super useful for pretty much everyone. Over 16 episodes, Taylor Behnke will teach you all about language, from its structure, to the relationship between language and our identity, the brain, and computers, to writing, language acquisition, and the diversity of human languages!

Phonetics 2 - Vowels

Season 1 Episode 9 | 11m 34s | CC

In English, we have 5 (well, sometimes 6) vowel letters, but way more vowel sounds. That’s where the IPA can help us! We learn about vowels, those sounds you can sing with your mouth open, and how we can represent them clearly using the IPA.
