1. allophonic

   In phonology, an allophone (; from the Greek ἄλλος, állos, 'other' and φωνή, phōnē, 'voice, sound') is a set of multiple possible spoken sounds – or phones – or signs used to pronounce a single phoneme in a particular language. For example, in English, the voiceless plosive [t] (as in stop [ˈstɒp]) and the aspirated form [tʰ] (as in top [ˈtʰɒp]) are allophones for the phoneme /t/, while these two are considered to be different phonemes in some languages such as Thai. On the other hand, in Spanish, [d] (as in dolor [doˈloɾ]) and [ð] (as in nada [ˈnaða]) are allophones for the phoneme /d/, while these two are considered to be different phonemes in English. The specific allophone selected in a given situation is often predictable from the phonetic context, with such allophones being called positional variants, but some allophones occur in free variation. Replacing a sound by another allophone of the same phoneme usually does not change the meaning of a word, but the result may sound non-native or even unintelligible. Native speakers of a given language perceive one phoneme in the language as a single distinctive sound and are "both unaware of and even shocked by" the allophone variations that are used to pronounce single phonemes.

1. allophonic

   Allophonic refers to the variations or subtle differences in pronunciation of a particular phoneme (smallest unit of sound) in a language. These variations do not change the meaning of the word and are often conditioned by the phonetic environment in which the phoneme appears. Allophonic varieties of a single phoneme are known as allophones.
