Vowel misarticulations have received very little attention in our literature. The author suggests that although vowel errors occur less frequently than consonant errors, their presence may indicate increased severity of disorder and should not be ignored. As vowel misarticulations have received relatively scant attention, their assessment and remediation have not been addressed. Procedures for the analysis and interpretation of vowel errors are described. A case study is presented to illustrate approaches to vowel assessment and remediation. Clinician attention to this aspect of phonological development is urged.
