According to "The Complete American English Phonemes Course 2026," which of the following is the primary articulatory distinction that differentiates the alveolar stop /t/ from the velar stop /k/ in American English?

The placement of the tongue blade, with /t/ being apico-alveolar and /k/ being post-velar.
The point of articulation, with /t/ being produced with the tongue tip at the alveolar ridge and /k/ with the back of the tongue at the velum.
The voicing feature, with /t/ being voiceless and /k/ being voiced.

What fundamental phonemic concept is most likely being misunderstood or inadequately mastered?
The minimal pair analysis for distinguishing between similar vowel sounds.
The aspiration rules governing voiceless stops in initial positions.

"The Complete American English Phonemes Course 2026" emphasizes the importance of coarticulation. When producing the word "tenth" (/tɛnθ/), a speaker might exhibit nasalization on the vowel /ɛ/ and a shortened duration of the final /θ/ sound. Which of the following best describes the articulatory phenomenon at play?
Epenthesis, where an extra sound is inserted.
Assimilation, specifically regressive assimilation of nasality from the /n/ to the /ɛ/, and anticipatory coarticulation affecting the duration of /θ/.
Dissimilation, where adjacent sounds become more dissimilar.
Elision, where sounds are omitted entirely.
