However, what is meant\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eand covered by this term which is used so often to refer to speech errors? Does its universality\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003esuggest that all tongue slips are of the same kind? If not, how can they be distinguished?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis term paper will try to give a more detailed categorization of speech anomalies, first\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eproviding a definition what is generally seen as a slip of the tongue. It will be shown, who\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ewere the first linguists to examine this topic and what discoveries were made.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn order to give an own precise classification of speech errors, different approaches for\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003emain categorizations will be presented and taken into consideration. On the basis of these\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003emain categories, further sub-categories are elaborated and illustrated with examples given by\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003edifferent authors in order to explain every feature appropriately. Since many authors still not\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eagree upon a common sub-classification, this term paper will select the most suitable terms\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eand definitions, try to compromise about the most common ones and give suggestions for\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003efurther distinctions. To be conforming to the majority of the literature, the most common\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eterminology shall be used. However, if provided terms are inappropriate or imprecise, they\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ewill be modified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe types of speech errors will be ordered via the main class they belong to. They will be\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003epresented as sub-classes, defined, explained and illustrated by examples in detail. Examples\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eare marked with ordinals. The incorrect utterance is always presented with an asterisk and\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003efollowed by the proper realization in brackets. The pronunciation of the slips is written in\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003egraphemes, i.e. normally written words, as far as this is possible to convey the mistake. Where\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eno written equivalent can be found, square brackets will be used for the transcription of the\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003espeech error.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter all issues of one main category have been elaborated, rules and general remarks\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ewhich apply to all of them will be stated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinally, this term paper concludes which problems may occur when classifying slips of the\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003etongue and provide an outlook about what speech errors reveal about the speech production\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eprocess, the inner human lexicon and language universals.
