The difference in pronunciation which is used by speakers to distinguish different utterances in a language is known as:
contrast
diphthong
Monophthongs are just one vowel sound. They are classified as front, central and back sounds. The sound /i/ is featured by:
The front section of the tongue rises to make contact both sides of the upper lateral teeth. A groove is formed in the middle of it and the airstream flows throughout freely. The tip of the tongue touches the lower incisive teeth.
The tongue is positioned forward and high in the oral cavity with the sides in contact with the teeth laterally and the tip positioned behind the lower teeth. The lips are spread and retracted. The jaw moves up.
The dorso section of the tongue reaches the borders of the hard palate making a groove between the tongue and the palate. The jaw moves down more than in /i/ production. The tip of the tongue moves forward the lower front teeth.
The tongue is positioned forward and slightly lower than in the oral cavity for /i/, with the sides in contact with the teeth laterally and the tip positioned behind the lower teeth. The jaw moves up slightly lower than for /i/.lips are spread and retracted.

There have been different points of view on what Linguistics is. They depend on many concerns that authors have taken into consideration. One of them says that "It certainly studies, analyzes, and compares two or more languages descriptively in order to find out similarities and differences among them during the language learning process." What type of linguistics does it refer to?
Contrastive
The spellings: < ew >, < o >, < oa >, < oe >, < ou >, < ow >, correspond to the sound:
/ew/
/aw/
/ow/
/ao/
The vowel spellings < a >, < au >, < aw >, < o >, < oa >, < ou> concern the sound:
/o/
/ ɔ /
[ õ ]
/ow/
The Diacritic “ h” means that a sound is:
Velarized
Voiceless
Strongly aspirated
Glottal
The tongue is retracted backward the oral cavity. The post dorso section of the tongue moves up toward the soft palate. The tip of the tongue reaches the lower tooth ridge. Lips are rounded. The information above belongs to the sound:
[ɔ: ]
/o/
The tongue base is retracted into the mouth cavity towards a mid-high velar position. Lips are rounded like pronouncing but saying . The lower jaw moves down making the mouth open a little bit more than the common /uw/ sound. Vocal folds vibrate. The information above refers to the sound:
/ ʊ /
Approximant sounds are clearly identified as semiconsonants or semivowels when they are part of a:
There are three pairs of homorganic plosives; however, one set differs in the passive articulator in the Spanish-English Contrast
True
False
This diphthong production is similar in both languages. The sequence shows how the tongue moves from the low-central position to the high-back position. The jaw moves up. The lips change their shape from neutral to rounded during this diphthong production. The information given above has to do with the sound:
/uy/
/ay/
/oy/
/aw/
It is a group of 2 or more adjacent consonants.

The phonemic and phonetic transfer for the voiceless and voiced /t-d/ is:

Write the appropriate word/phrase. It is based on sounds-pronunciation- and deals with symbols which represent consonant or vowel sounds:
Alphabetical Writing Language
Every 'apico alveolar' sound becomes dental in:
Palatal vowel sounds are the same as central vowel sounds.
English vowel sounds might be identified in their vowel quality due to their number of phonemic symbols.
True

mid fronts, mid bak, and low central

The study focus of Linguistics is language. Concepts on it have been stated according to different points of view of researchers. Language is the system of human communication which consists of the structured arrangement of sounds or their written representation into larger units, eg. Morphemes, words, sentences, utterances. This point of view was presented by:
Heinle Dictionary

What is the relevant parameter that makes a difference between /t-d/ SpanishEnglish sounds?
Passive Articulator
A way of speaking the language under certain circumstances produced by the environment and accepted by s small group of people.
Write the appropriate word/phrase. It is an arbitrary structured system of utterances-sounds, gestures, signs, and movements, written symbols, morphemes, words and sentences used for human communication:

The tongue is positioned back in a low-mid position with respect to the height. The jaw is slightly lowered. The lips are rounded but bigger than for /u/ and /ow/. This sound happens in language(s).
