Description

"Speech-sounds are often described non technically in subjective, and largely meaningless, terms, as 'harsh', 'guttural', 'soft', 'flat', etc. They can be described objectively from three main points of view. This yields a threefold division of the subject into articulatory, acoustic and auditory phonetics."
