It is the study of how speech sounds are made. The International Phonetic Alphabet was designed primarily for studying speech to specify each sound that can be made orally to from words. All speech sounds are divided into categories, vowels which are divided into sub categories: front, central and back vowels depending on where in the mouth the sound is produced), consonants which are divided up into: sonorants, obstruents, fricatives, affricates, sibiliants, stridents, liquids,glides, and dipthongs. Knowing all these categories and their manner and placement of articulation can help further diagnose people with speech disorders.

Can phonetics be studied without phonology?
Yes. The main focus of phonetics is how sounds are made. The study of phonetics dictates whether sounds are voiceless, aspirated, nasalized, the point of articulation of each sound, etc. Phonology on the other hand is the study of how speech sounds are organized and how they function. It looks at the significance of sounds and how they are used in a particular language. It is therefore possible to study the phonetics of all languages, without phonology, however you cannot study phonology without phonetics.
