THE VOWEL CHART

All that the vowel chart is trying to do is to represent where the tongue lies in relation to the openness of the mouth when you sound a vowel. So the front closed vowel /i:/ means that your tongue is in a forward position in the mouth which is in a relatively closed position. Try saying it to yourself and then contrast it with the open back sound in the diagram.

As such, the English vowels can be represented in the form of a table or chart that can show the relative position of the tongue in the mouth. This chart can tell the location in the mouth where a vowel is articulated. It can also indicate the degree to which the mouth is open (technically known as degree of aperture) when a given vowel is produced. For example, you may have the experience of going to a doctor because of a cold or flu. The doctor wants you to say æææææææ to be able to see the back of your mouth. This shows that the /æ/ sound is articulated with a lowered jaw which adds to the openness of the mouth. Look at the following figure to see how English vowels are articulated.
