Each language uses a unique subset of all the sounds available to human beings. These sounds are then combined into meaningful units (morphemes, words). There are rules governing how these sounds are pronounced and how they may combine in a given language. Speakers of a language know these rules but not in a conscious way. This first year course is intended to introduce the basic concepts and methods that one needs in order to analyse the sound system of any language.
