Articulate C,K,G 5.2

The application presents itself as a valuable clinical tool for speech therapists, while also offering support for parents assisting their children with the articulation of velar phonemes, specifically the /k/ and /g/ sounds. Additionally, English language learners may benefit from this resource for enhancing their pronunciation skills.

Featuring a collection of 145 images accompanied by optional spoken words and text, the app facilitates targeted practice of velar phonemes through auditory bombardment and flashcard drills. The inclusion of an engaging matching game adds an element of fun, encouraging users to persist in their articulation practice during playtime.

Developed by a certified and licensed speech-language pathologist affiliated with ASHA, this application is particularly suitable for individuals who exhibit omissions of velar sounds or demonstrate the phonological process of velar fronting. Furthermore, it may assist in addressing other phonological processes such as initial consonant deletion, final consonant deletion, weak syllable deletion, and cluster simplification. The app offers a variety of phonetic contexts, including:

• Initial /k/ - 1 syllable
• Initial /k/ - multisyllabic
• Inter-syllabic /k/
• Final /k/
• Initial /kl/
• Initial /kr/
• Initial /g/
• Inter-syllabic /g/
• Final /g/
• Initial /gl/
• Initial /gr/
