	Phonologists are craftsmen with special skills related to the study and enriching of people's lives through the use of sound. Different from [[musician]]s, acousticians are able to manipulate various sounds by using items called [[Sound Set]]s. These were sometimes used in conjunction with a [[Sound Rune]].

	== Etymology ~~and misnomer~~ ==		== Etymology ==
	~~Phonology~~ comes from Ancient Greek ~~φωνή, phōnḗ, "voice, sound~~," and the suffix -~~logy~~ (which is from ~~Greek λόγος, lógos, "word~~, ~~speech"~~).		Acoustician comes from the Ancient Greek ἀκουστῐκός (akoustĭkós, of or for hearing) and the suffix -ian (which is from Latin -iānus, a belonging or origin adjective).

	~~However~~, ~~phonology~~ is ~~a misnomer for the Suikoden world occupation~~. In the real world, phonology describes a branch of linguistics which explores what functions sounds ~~fulfil~~ in a given language. ~~The related area of phonetics, on the other hand, investigates how humans form and perceive sounds. Since Suikoden world acousticians seem to be occupied with sounds of any kind~~, ~~their real life counterpart would be acousticians~~, ~~which~~ investigate the physical phenomenon of sound in a general sense.		The term used in the 1999 localization, phonologist, comes from Ancient Greek φωνή (phōnḗ, "voice, sound") and the suffix -logy (which is from Greek λόγος, lógos, "word, speech").
