|QUESTIONS AND VERIFIED ANSWERS|GRADED A+|PASS ON FIRST
Syntax - ANSWER Understanding Sentence structure and grammar. Makes it so subject
and predicate coordinate
Phonological Skills - ANSWER Awareness of Sounds and Syllables
Morphological Skills - ANSWER Understanding Word parts and their meaning
Semantics/Vocabulary - ANSWER Understanding word phrases and meaning
Pragmatics - ANSWER Understanding communication rules (social norms)
Phonemes - ANSWER Individual Speech Sounds (hear and speak only do not see)
Graphemes - ANSWER Letters or letter combinations that represent phonemes (hear and
speak and see)
Letters - ANSWER see only
Vowels - ANSWER sound produced without closed vocal tract
Dipthongs - ANSWER 2 vowels in same syllable that glide -Like Boy_
semi-vowels - ANSWER consonants like y or w that can sometimes be a vowel
1
, Consonants - ANSWER sounds produced through partial or full closed vocal tract
Stop Sounds - ANSWER consonants where the vocal tract is blocked so airflow stops
Frictives - ANSWER consonants produced when air moving through the mouth creates
friction
Naslas - ANSWER consonants produced when air moves through the nose and mouth
affrictives - ANSWER comb between stop sounds and frictives
voicing - ANSWER refers to how vocal folds react
unvoices - ANSWER sounds that occur when vocal cords remain open and do not vibrate
continueant - ANSWER spoken through fixed configuration of vocals
noncontinuanat - ANSWER produces as a vocal tract changes over pronunciation of
sound (dipthongs, semivowels, stops, affrictives)
Levels of Complexity of phonological awareness - ANSWER Least: 1. word awareness and
sentence segmentation
next 2. Rhyming and alliteration
next 3. Syllables
next 4: onset/rime
most 5: phonemic awareness
