2. Phonological awareness - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonological_awareness

   Phonological awareness is an individual's awareness of the phonological structure, or sound structure, of words. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Phonological awareness is an important and reliable predictor of later reading ability and has, therefore, been the focus of much research.

3. Syllable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syllable

   For example, Spanish casar ("to marry") is composed of an open syllable followed by a closed syllable (ca-sar), whereas cansar "to get tired" is composed of two closed syllables (can-sar). When a geminate (double) consonant occurs, the syllable boundary occurs in the middle, e.g. Italian panna "cream" ( pan-na ); cf. Italian pane "bread" ( pa-ne ).

4. Phonological development - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonological_development

   Phonological awareness does continue to develop until the first years of school. For example, only about half of the 4- and 5-year-olds tested by Liberman et al. (1974) were able to tap out the number of syllables in multisyllabic words, but 90% of the 6-year-olds were able to do so. [28]

5. Phonics - Wikipedia

   For example, a word like car should have the pattern of a "closed syllable" because it has one vowel and ends in a consonant. However, the a in car does not have its regular "short" sound (/ æ / as in cat) because it is controlled by the r. The r changes the sound of the vowel that precedes it. Other examples include: park, horn, her, bird ...

6. Emergent literacies - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergent_literacies

   Phonological awareness is another component of emergent literacy. It is the ability and skills to manipulate sounds in words without the use of print. [16] For example, manipulating and identifying sounds in words such as syllables, rhymes, and individual sounds including blending them together are phonological awareness skills . [19]

7. Reading - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reading

   Reading is the process of taking in the sense or meaning of symbols, often specifically those of a written language, by means of sight or touch. [1] [2] [3] [4]For educators and researchers, reading is a multifaceted process involving such areas as word recognition, orthography (spelling), alphabetics, phonics, phonemic awareness, vocabulary, comprehension, fluency, and motivation.

8. Voice (phonetics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voice_(phonetics)

   The difference is best illustrated by a rough example. The English word nods is made up of a sequence of phonemes, represented symbolically as /nɒdz/, or the sequence of /n/, /ɒ/, /d/, and /z/. Each symbol is an abstract representation of a phoneme. That awareness is an inherent part of speakers' mental grammar that allows them to recognise ...

9. Phonemic awareness - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonemic_awareness

   Phonemic awareness and phonological awareness are often confused since they are interdependent. Phonemic awareness is the ability to hear and manipulate individual phonemes. Phonological awareness includes this ability, but it also includes the ability to hear and manipulate larger units of sound, such as onsets and rimes and syllables .
