Hi... a question for those of you who've done acoustic phonetics. I'm supposed to plot the vowels I'm working on right now on a formant chart (PRAAT = argh), and my professor hasn't posted a sample for us as he promised. Am I right in thinking a formant chart looks something like this, with F1 on the vertical axis and F2 and on the horizontal axis? http://www.linguistics.ucla.edu/people/hayes/103/charts/VChart/FormantPlot.jpg

(Also, is there a way to draw the formant chart on PRAAT? So far I've only figured out how to make it plot the waveform in the picture window, but I don't need waveforms, just spectrograms and a formant chart.)

Thanks!
