The Human Speech Sounds (1918)

The Human Speech Sounds (1918) is a book written by Charles T. Luthy that provides a comprehensive analysis of the sounds used in human speech. The book is divided into three parts: the first part discusses the physiology of speech, including the organs involved in producing speech sounds and the mechanisms involved in creating different sounds. The second part delves into the acoustics of speech, examining the physical properties of sound waves and how they are perceived by the human ear. Finally, the third part of the book explores the phonetics of speech, analyzing the different sounds used in various languages and how they are represented in written form. Throughout the book, Luthy provides numerous examples and illustrations to help readers understand the complex concepts presented. The Human Speech Sounds is a valuable resource for linguists, speech therapists, and anyone interested in the science of language and communication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
