Talk:Basis of articulation

Articulatory setting

As far as I know, 'Basis of Articulation' and 'Articulatory Setting' are used almost interchangeably in the phonetics literature. I have therefore requested a redirect so that anyone searching for 'Articulatory setting' will end up at 'Basis of articulation'. Unfortunately nothing seems to have happened on this request.

Criticism

My Lords and gentlemen! Peter Roach having written in English Phonetics and Phonology that it is difficult to confirm these settings scientifically and etc, I do not understand why there is no information about lack of scientific proofs. I am a reader of EnWiki, and, to tell you the exact truth, I think it to be very important to describe all points of view on that. I believe you to think this conception to be doubtful, therefore there is a controversy. That's why it is evident that the afore-said article is not completely correct. The article being incomplete, I cannot transcribe it. What is a conventional point?

In a word, I pray you to lay down the conventional point of view in the following article. The phrase Non-native speakers typically find the basis of articulation one of the greatest challenges in acquiring a foreign language's pronunciation. Speaking with the basis of articulation of their own native language results in a foreign accent, even if the individual sounds of the target language are produced correctly. seems not to be conventional.

It is really important for because I am studying English Phonetics, and, as it thinks to me, EnWiki can help me in that matter.Роман Сидоров (г. Смоленск) (talk) 11:54, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

This contribution is not a serious discussion, or is framed in a way that makes it impossible to discuss. I propose to remove the tag saying that the neutrality of the piece is disputed. RoachPeter (talk) 15:28, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

I don't at all understand where the problem is, it's simply a neutral sourced statement. If you can find sources to the contrary, you're free to do so but until then, I'll remove the neutrality template.--Megaman en m (talk) 20:42, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

@Megaman en m: Thanks for removing the neutrality template. I'm not clear if your reply is directed to me or to Роман Сидоров. If it's to me, I will need to explain my position to you. RoachPeter (talk) 09:17, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

I was addressing Роман Сидоров.--Megaman en m (talk) 12:20, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
