Based on the discovery of the original phoneme /o/ and its main natures, we established the Coordinate System of Linguistic Phonemes (CSOLP). CSOLP can provide a mathematical platform for quantitative and dynamic research on speech sounds [10]. The cardinal vowel system, devised by the famous British phonetician Daniel Jones, was the theoretical basis of the IPA vowel system. As we know, phonetic research based on the IPA vowel diagram could be only qualitative. Taking the original phoneme /o/ as a reference point, this paper attempts to translate Daniel’s four basic fixed extreme vowels to the CSOLP and determine their coordinates in it, then constructs a mathematical model for the IPA vowel system to achieve an approach to study linguistic phonemes in natural articulating settings quantitatively and dynamically.As an actual application paradigm, we set up a mathematical model for the IPA diphthong system with the help of the mathematical model in CSOLP, and illustrate quantitative and dynamic analyses in the pronunciation process of English diphthongs in natural manner. |
