Every spoken language on the planet, no matter how different it sounds, is produced by the same handful of physical mechanisms: a stream of air, shaped by tongue, teeth, lips, and vocal folds into a finite alphabet of possible sounds, cataloged in the International Phonetic Alphabet. This course is hands-on phonetics: how to hear a language's actual sound inventory instead of the one your own language trained you to hear.
