Basis of articulation

Okay, kiddo, let's learn about basis of articulation.

You know how we make sounds when we talk? Those sounds come from our mouths, and the way we move our mouths to make those sounds is called articulation.

Now, our mouths are made up of different parts, like our lips, tongue, and teeth. When we speak, we use these parts to make different sounds. For example, when we say "p," we close our lips together and then release them to make a sound.

The basis of articulation is how we use these different parts of our mouths to make sounds. It's like a rule book for how we make all the different sounds in our language.

Different languages have different rules for articulation. For example, in some languages, there might be a sound that uses the tongue in a way that we don't use it in English. That's because the basis of articulation for that language is different than it is for English.

So, there you have it, little one. The basis of articulation is like a rule book for how we use our mouths to make sounds when we talk, and it's different for different languages.
