| | PHONETICS - LoveToKnow Article on PHONETICS |
 | | The only sound basis of a theoretical knowledge of phonetics is the practical mastery of a limited number of soundsthat is to say, of the sounds which are already familiar to the learner in his own language. |  | | There is also a strong aspirate, which occurs in Finnish and other languages, in the formation of which the full vowel position is assumed from the beginning of the aspiration, which is therefore a voiceless vowel. |  | | But the phonetic structure of French is so abnormal, so different from that of other languages, that the attempt to force a Broad Romic French notation on such a language as English is even more hopeless than it would be to reverse the process. |

 | | What's important in these Finnish examples is that vowel length is crucial in distinguishing between the words meaning 'mud' and 'some other', while consonant length is what's important in distinguishing between the words meaning 'but' and 'mud'. |  | | What used to be File 3.8 in Language Files (but no longer exists in the new versions) presented a very nice run down of the difference between broad and narrow transcription. |  | | Phonetics is the study of the sounds we use when we speak. |

| | Finnish language spoken |
 | | This article deals with features of the spoken Finnish language.It will only make limited sense without the information contained in the Finnish language phonetics and Finnish language grammar pages. |  | | As noted in the Finnish grammar page, thepassive form is normally used in speech for first-person plural. |  | | Since the stress in Finnish always falls on the first syllable of the word, the ends of words greater than one syllable tendto erode. |

| | Are High Elves Finno-Ugric? |
 | | Finnish influence does indeed seem strong in the earliest forms of the language, at least in vocabulary, where many words are Finnish in style. |  | | Finnish verbs are inflected according to the subject of the sentence, and a pronoun can often be omitted, but I think there are other languages that are closer to Quenya in this respect. |  | | Phonetics and phonology - the sounds of a language and the system they form - were important to Tolkien, who most of all wanted his languages to sound beautiful. |

 | | In phonetics, there are two main systems of notation for describing how a language is pronounced: IPA and SAMPA. |  | | Note: The SAMPA transcription of the Finnish language has not been completed yet by the IPA community. |  | | So, we had to create new SAMPA characters in order to notate Finnish language. |

 | | The Finnish orthography is morphemic, and the morphemic notation is built upon the phonetic principle: with just a few subtle exceptions, within a single morpheme, each phoneme (distinct sound) of the language is represented by exactly one grapheme (independent letter), and each grapheme represents exactly one phoneme, if the morpheme is pronounced in isolation. |  | | SIL International is a non-profit, Christian, scientific organization with the main purpose to study, develop and document lesser-known languages for the purpose of expanding linguistic knowledge, promoting world literacy and aiding minority language development. |  | | Geographical distribution of Samoyedic, Finnic, Ugric and Yukaghir languages The Uralic languages form a language family of about 30 languages spoken by approximately 20 million people. |
