The IPA vowel chart does show lip rounding - the positions in the chart have pairs of vowels, the first is unrounded (e.g. /i/) and the second rounded (e.g., /y/). And, tbh, it's a binary feature unlike tongue positioning.
- broof 4y agoit is not binary. Did you watch the video?
- meepmorp 4y agoNo, but I took a few phonetics classes in grad school. Does that put me ahead or behind watching the video?
- broof 4y agoI don't know, I wasn't in your classes. You would probably find the video interesting nonetheless. It's from a UCLA professor and is in part specifically about how he at least partially disagrees with the way that phonetics are traditionally taught.
