The subject of Phonetics “Phonetics is the systematic study of the sounds
speech, which is physical and directly observable.
Phonetics is sometimes seen as not properly linguistic, because it is the outward, physical manifestation of the main object of linguistic research, which is language (not speech): and language is abstract” (Richard Ogden, 2009).

The subject of Phonetics (Borisova, 1980)

Phonetics is a branch of linguistics which studies

The subject of Phonetics (Borisova, 1980) Phonetics is a branch of linguistics
sounds in the broad sense, comprising segmental sounds and prosodic phenomena (pitch, stress, tempo, rhythm and pauses).
Phonetics occupies itself with the study of the ways in which the sounds are organized in the system of units and variations of these units in all styles of spoken language.
It also studies the acoustic properties of sound production and the sound phenomena that reveal the individual peculiarities of the speaker.

The subject of Phonetics … phonetics is the science that “studies the
system of the language, that is segmental phonemes, word stress, syllabic structure and intonation” (Sokolova & others, 2004 : 6).

The subject of Phonetics Phonetics is more than descriptive; it is an
science that has theories and models that make testable predictions about the form of speech in different communicative situations. It legitimately addresses questions about how and why speech takes the forms it does (PLIN2108/PLING216 Intermediate Phonetics & Phonology).

the branch of Phonetics as separate branch of linguistics;
Phonetics is more than 2000 years old;
Nowadays Phonetics is a branch of linguistics that studies the whole sound system of language: sounds, phonemes, allophones, the phonetic phenomena; the syllabic structure, the distribution of stress and intonation;

Methods of acoustic phonetics Spectrograph – a device that records the frequencies
a given sound and its relative amplitudes in the form of spectrograms;
Oscilograph – for indicating and recording alternating sound vibrations of any frequencies (sound waves) and their changing in time
Intonograph – measures the fundamental tones of the vocal cords, the average sound pressure, the duration of speech;
Kymograph – (used until 1960s) graphically recorded motion or pressure of speech sounds and their qualitative variations in the form of tracing on smoked paper;

Methods of investigating in Phonetics Objective / instrumental methods – applied in
phonetics based on facts obtained with the help of different laboratory equipment or devices and instruments;
Subjective / perceptive methods – applied in articulatory phonetics which are influenced by personal opinion; The methods of direct observation comprise three modes of phonetic analyses: by ear (auditory), by sight (visual) and by muscular sensation.

phenomena as common to all languages;
Synchronic / descriptive phonetics
( синхронная, описательная) – investigates phonetic units at a single stage in language development to discover the sound patterns that can occur;
Diachronic / historical phonetics ( диахроническая / историческая) – examines and constructs theories about the changes and modifications in speech sounds over a period of time;
