Abstract

Language as a sign system can be discussed in terms of articulation i.e. exposing the matter of the
sound system as its material formulation. In that sense language can be researched in terms of Phonetics
- the sounds, accent, intonation as its material side and Phonology i.e. the sounds and their functional
role in the language system. Phonetics and Phonology are two different sciences whereas Phonetics is
considered as a helping linguistic discipline which is about the sound notions of the word apart from
their linguistic function which is discussed further in Morphology, Syntax and Semantics. Phonetics
does not deal with the sound complex and its meaning but the material side of the sounds and human
speech i.e. the physiological description of the sounds.
Within every foreign language learning and teaching, the pronunciation i.e. the speaking skill is
essential. In order to improve English language pronunciation, one needs to acquire the rules of Phonetics
and Phonology that deal with the sounds, their physical properties and the relationship of sounds and
meaning along with the phonetic transcription.
Key words: English language, pronunciation, Phonetics, Phonology, IPA.
