Abstract

The article attempts to identify, analyse and describe the deviations that appear as a result of rules violation, the attention is drawn to the typical mistakes of pronunciation, including pronunciation of hissing sounds before whistling and whistling before hissing as well as the coronal consonants [d], [t] before them. The attention is focused on adherence to the rules of pronunciation according to the field of working of the respondents: 10-11th grade learners of Savranskaya school, the students of philological faculty of the Bulgarian and Ukrainian branch of Odessa Mechnikov National University, chemists, technicians SPU. The survey (audio record) specifies firm and weak rules of pronunciation, points out essential pronunciation problems and their regularity that is witnessed in history. There is information in many spelling records based on phonetic rules on peculiarities of Ukrainian pronunciation, sound combinations in particular that have been investigated. A parallel is drawn between the present pronunciation and the pronunciation records more or less based on phonetic principles, which fixed the changes that took place in the language and are the orthoepical norms now. The firmest rules of pronunciation are closely connected with those which were recorded in writing during the XIX century. The same peculiarities of pronunciation that had not been recorded or recorded occasionally though have become orthoepic now belong to the unstable and are often violated.
