This article explores the categorization and characteristics of
monophthongs, diphthongs, and triphthongs in English from both an articulatory
and phonological perspective. It provides a detailed examination of how these
vowel sounds are produced and perceived in English speech. Monophthongs are
described as pure, stable vowel sounds produced with a fixed tongue position,
while diphthongs involve a glide between two vowel sounds within a syllable.
Triphthongs are even more complex, comprising three vowel sounds articulated
in a single syllable. The article also emphasizes the role of dialectal variation in
shaping the realization of these vowel sounds, highlighting the differences in
their pronunciation across accents, such as Received Pronunciation (RP) and
various forms of American English. T
