Abstract The present study deals with “A brief Modern Standard Arabic. This study starts from an description of consonants in Modern Standard Arabic”. This elucidation of the phonetic bases of sounds classification. At study tries to give some information about the production of this point shows the first limit of the study that is basically Arabic sounds, the classification and description of phonetic rather than phonological description of sounds. consonants in Standard Arabic, then the definition of the This attempt of classification is followed by lists of the word consonant. In the present study we also investigate the consonant sounds in Standard Arabic with a key word for place of articulation in Arabic consonants we describe each consonant. The criteria of description are place and sounds according to: bilabial, labio-dental, alveolar, palatal, manner of articulation and voicing. The attempt of velar, uvular, and glottal.

LINGUISTICS 221 LECTURE #3 the BASIC SOUNDS of ENGLISH 1. STOPS a Stop Consonant Is Produced with a Complete Closure of Airflow
LINGUISTICS 221 LECTURE #3 Introduction to Phonetics and Phonology THE BASIC SOUNDS OF ENGLISH 1. STOPS A stop consonant is produced with a complete closure of airflow in the vocal tract; the air pressure has built up behind the closure; the air rushes out with an explosive sound when released. The term plosive is also used for oral stops. ORAL STOPS: e.g., [b] [t] (= plosives) NASAL STOPS: e.g., [m] [n] (= nasals) There are three phases of stop articulation: i. CLOSING PHASE (approach or shutting phase) The articulators are moving from an open state to a closed state; ii. CLOSURE PHASE (= occlusion) Blockage of the airflow in the oral tract; iii. RELEASE PHASE Sudden reopening; it may be accompanied by a burst of air. ORAL STOPS IN ENGLISH a. BILABIAL STOPS: The blockage is made with the two lips. spot [p] voiceless baby [b] voiced 1 b. ALVEOLAR STOPS: The blade (or the tip) of the tongue makes a closure with the alveolar ridge; the sides of the tongue are along the upper teeth. lamino-alveolar stops or Check your apico-alveolar stops pronunciation! stake [t] voiceless deep [d] voiced c. VELAR STOPS: The closure is between the back of the tongue (= dorsum) and the velum. dorso-velar stops scar [k] voiceless goose [g] voiced 2. NASALS (= nasal stops) The air is stopped in the oral tract, but the velum is lowered so that the airflow can go through the nasal tract. All nasals are voiced. NASALS IN ENGLISH a.

Disease/Medical Condition
Disease/Medical Condition HYPOTHYROIDISM Date of Publication: January 27, 2017 (also known as “underactive thyroid disease”; includes congenital hypothyroidism [also known as “neonatal hypothyroidism”] and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis [also known as “autoimmune thyroiditis”]; may manifest as “cretinism” [if onsets during fetal or early life; also known as “congenital myxedema”] or “myxedema” [if onset occurs in older children and adults]) Is the initiation of non-invasive dental hygiene procedures* contra-indicated? No. ◼ Is medical consult advised? – Yes, if previously undiagnosed hypothyroidism or enlarged (or shrunken) thyroid gland is suspected1, in which case the patient/client should see his/her primary care physician. Detection early in childhood can prevent permanent intellectual impairment. – Yes, if previously diagnosed hypothyroidism is suspected to be undermedicated (with manifest signs/symptoms of hypothyroidism) or overmedicated (with manifest signs/symptoms of hyperthyroidism2), in which case the patient/client should see his/her primary care physician or endocrinologist. Major stress or illness sometimes necessitates an increase in prescribed thyroid hormone. Is the initiation of invasive dental hygiene procedures contra-indicated?** Possibly, depending on the certainty of diagnosis and level of control. ◼ Is medical consult advised? – See above. ◼ Is medical clearance required? – Yes, if undiagnosed or severe hypothyroidism is suspected. ◼ Is antibiotic prophylaxis required? – No. ◼ Is postponing treatment advised? – Yes, if undiagnosed hypothyroidism is suspected (necessitating medical assessment/management) or severe hypothyroidism is suspected (necessitating urgent medical assessment/management in order to avoid risk of myxedema coma). In general, the patient/client with mild symptoms of untreated hypothyroidism is not in danger when receiving dental hygiene therapy, and the well managed (euthyroid) patient/client requires no special regard. -
Orofacial Myology Is a Specialized Professional Discipline That Evaluates and Treats a Variety Of
What is Orofacial Myology? Orofacial myology is a specialized professional discipline that evaluates and treats a variety of oral and facial (orofacial) muscles, (myo-) postural and functional disorders and oral habits that may disrupt normal dental development and also create cosmetic problems. The principles involved with the evaluation and treatment of orofacial Myofunctional disorders are based upon dental science tenets; however, orofacial Myofunctional therapy is not dental treatment. Myofunctional therapy can be basically described as correcting an oro-facial muscular unbalance, including correction of the position of the tongue at rest and during swallowing. Specific treatments involve establishing and stabilizing normal rest position of the tongue and lips, eliminating deviate (abnormal) oral habits and correcting swallowing patterns when tongue thrusting is involved. Improvements in appearance are observed during and following therapy. What are Myofunctional disorders and how are they corrected? An oral Myofunctional disorder includes a variety of oral habits, postures and functional activities that may open the normal dental bite or may lead to deformation of the dental arches. • Thumb and finger sucking • an open-mouth posture with lips apart • a forward rest posture of the tongue • Tongue thrusting during speaking and swallowing Above mentioned oral habits characterize Myofunctional disorders. Such disorders can lead to a disruption of normal dental development in both children and adults. The consequence of postural and functional variations involving the lips and tongue are associated with dental malocclusion, cosmetic problems, and deformities in the growth of the dental arches. How Prevalent Are Orofacial Myofunctional Disorders (OMD)? Research examining various populations found 38% have orofacial Myofunctional disorders and, as mentioned above, an incidence of 81% has been found in children exhibiting speech/articulation problems. -

Scott, Dean of the College of Music Costas Tsatsoulis, Interim Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Reikofski, Helen Dewey. Singing in English in the 21st Century: A Study Comparing and Applying the Tenets of Madeleine Marshall and Kathryn LaBouff. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), August 2015, 171 pp., 6 tables, 21 figures, bibliography, 141 titles. The English diction texts by Madeleine Marshall and Kathryn LaBouff are two of the most acclaimed manuals on singing in this language. Differences in style between the two have separated proponents to be primarily devoted to one or the other. An in- depth study, comparing the precepts of both authors, and applying their principles, has resulted in an understanding of their common ground, as well as the need for the more comprehensive information, included by LaBouff, on singing in the dialect of American Standard, and changes in current Received Pronunciation, for British works, and Mid- Atlantic dialect, for English language works not specifically North American or British. Chapter 1 introduces Marshall and The Singer’s Manual of English Diction, and LaBouff and Singing and Communicating in English. An overview of selected works from Opera America’s resources exemplifies the need for three dialects in standardized English training. -

Cook: Fantasy Incarnate Fantasy Incarnate: Of Elves and Men Introduction The following essay arises out of sustained engagement with the section of J.R.R. Tolkien’s On Fairy Stories entitled ‘Origins’. This section is dense, often elliptical, sometimes cryptic, with depths that have yet to be plumbed. It defies easy exegesis. My attempt to understand the ideas behind the text have led me far afield – into other sections of the essay, into other writings by Tolkien, and into works by other scholars which, in varying degrees, illuminate Tolkien’s thought. I have yet to exhaust this material and more remains to be said. What fruit I now present from my exegetical labour boils down to two claims: that loss of historical memory plays a vital role in Tolkien’s account of mythology, and that the notion of incarnation provides a key to his conception of fantasy.1 The essay consists of four main sections. -
