## iaeauNBspectrogram.png The image is a spectrogram, which is a visual representation of the spectrum of frequencies in a sound over time. It shows how the frequency content of a sound changes with time. ### Key Features: - **X-axis (Time):** Represents time in seconds. The scale ranges from 0 to approximately 2.646 seconds. - **Y-axis (Frequency):** Represents frequency in Hertz (Hz). The scale ranges from 0 Hz at the bottom to around 5000 Hz at the top. ### Spectrogram Details: The spectrogram is divided into four sections, each representing a different vowel sound: /i/, /æ/, /ɑː/, and /u/. These are labeled above their respective sections in the image. Each section shows how the frequency content changes over time for that particular vowel sound. - **/i/:** This section appears to have high-frequency components concentrated around 2000 Hz, with a relatively narrow bandwidth. - **/æ/:** This section has lower frequencies compared to /i/, with significant energy in the range of approximately 1500 Hz. The frequency content is more spread out over time than for /i/. - **/ɑː/:** This section shows even lower frequencies, around 800 Hz, and a broader bandwidth. - **/u/:** This section has low-frequency components concentrated around 600 Hz. ### Observations: The spectrogram visually represents the different vowel sounds by showing how their frequency content changes over time. The /i/ sound is characterized by higher frequencies that are more concentrated in the middle of the spectrum, while the /ɑː/ and /u/ sounds have lower frequencies with broader bandwidths. The /æ/ sound has a mix of both high and low frequencies. This type of analysis can be used to study speech patterns or to identify different phonemes based on their frequency characteristics over time.
