Formants are useful components to be used in order to recognize some meaningful contents from any sound. By using formants, vowel sounds in a speech can be recorded and categorized as a reference in a speech training system for the hearing impaired. The recorded sound then can be analyzed and the sound’s formant values can be obtained. By using PRAAT system, the vowel speech is recorded and up-to three values of formants were gained. These formant values from five vowels (A, E, I, O, U) from three subjects were analyzed and characterized as a reference for a speech training system. The results shows that pronounced vowels’ characteristics can be distinguished but may defer a little from a person to another.
