In phonetics and linguistics the phonetic environment refers to the surrounding sounds of a target speech sound, or target phone, in a word. The phonetic environment of a phone can sometimes determine the allophonic or phonemic qualities of a sound in a given language. For example, the English vowel () in the word 'mat' () has the consonants () preceding it and () following it. In linguistic notation it is written as /m__t, where the slash can be read as "in the environment," and the underscore represents the target phone's position relative to its neighbours. The expression therefore reads "in the environment after m and before t." ==See also== * Complementary Distribution * Contrastive Distribution * Free Variation * Minimal Pair * Allophone * Phoneme * List of phonetics topics 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Phonetic environment」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
