I need to write an essay on freedom writes and i’ll stuck
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Freedom

Freedom is an innate right which humans have since their birth. Freedom is not something that can be touched, seen, felt or reached. All this gives a vague idea about freedom. What exactly does freedom mean?

Different people have different opinion, definition and thoughts about the idea of freedom. Some talk about freedom in political sense, some talk about social freedom, some about personal independence and some define it as religious freedom. But the fact that everyone wants to be free, holds true in all cases.

Freedom is the choice to live one’s life doing what one wants, live where one wants, eat by own choice and learn what one’s heart desires. This means that freedom can apply to different aspects of life and freedom is not an absolute term.

Which of the following is a minimal pair showing that backness is contrastive for low vowels in English? Group of answer choices
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

I believe the best choice is the first pair, "pat" vs. "pot".

Explanation:

As we know, a minimal pair is a pair of words that present only one different phoneme, that is, words that are not identical due to one single sound.

We are here trying to find a minimal pair related to low vowels. Low vowels are also called open vowels. They happen when the tongue is as far as possible from the roof of the mouth. For that reason, we could already choose "pat" and "pot" as the correct option. Pat /pæt / and pot /pɑt/ or /pɒt/ both present open vowels. The other pairs don't.

Still, what makes the pair "pat" vs. "pot" surely the right one is the fact that the phonemes æ and ɑ -- or ɒ, depeding if it is British or American -- are made different by their backness. Backness is the position of the tongue relative to the back of the mouth. In "pat", we have a front position, while in "pot" we have a back position.
