A fistula is an abnormal opening between organs or other structures in the body. Fistulas are more common in the pelvic area but can happen in different parts of the body. They are a rare side effect of cancer treatment. Less commonly, they develop because of the cancer growing. The symptoms depend on where it is in the body. You may get urinary and bowel symptoms if the fistula is in the pelvis.
In linguistics, a distinctive feature is the most basic unit of phonological structure that may be analyzed in phonological theory.Distinctive features are grouped into categories according to the natural classes of segments they describe: major class features, laryngeal features, manner features, and place features.n addition, a phoneme may be unmarked with respect to a feature. However, in recent developments to the theory of distinctive features, phonologists have proposed the existence of single-valued features.
The phonetic symbols (or phonemic notation) used in Teflpedia represent the phonemes of the English language using conventions very similar to those introduced by Alfred Gimson in 1977 for Received Pronunciation and found on several Oxford dictionaries such as Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary.n this website (and everywhere else, excepting specialized Linguistic journals or books) the term phonetic symbol refers to what would be strictly called phonemic symbol, i.e. symbols that represent different phonemes.
