What is "juncture"?
Juncture refers to the way in which sounds or syllables are connected or separated in speech, affecting the meaning and clarity of spoken language. It involves the pauses or transitions between words or sounds and can change the interpretation of a phrase. For example, in the phrase "I scream," a slight pause or change in juncture can differentiate it from "ice cream." Juncture is important in phonetics and linguistics because it helps convey meaning and intent in spoken language, highlighting how the organization of sounds can impact communication and understanding.
