Consonant Chart and Vowel Chart views display all consonants and vowels, respectively, in the data sources of the open project. The charts organize consonants by place and manner of articulation and vowels by tongue position and height. You can see the data in an HTML chart.
You can quickly see the general distribution of phones in the data corpus. The histogram and ScreenTips display phone frequencies that can help you discover questionable transcriptions.
You can customize the charts to organize phones in a way that makes sense in the language you are analyzing.
You can do any of the following:
Search for phones in your data in various predefined environments.
View a Histogram of phone frequencies.
If you let the mouse pointer rest on a phone in the chart or histogram, or on a histogram bar, a ScreenTip displays the number of times the phone occurs.
