A speech sound is simply a sound that is heard within a given language. In other words, a sound that come's out of a person's mouth that is representative of his/her spoken language.

An example of a speech sound is the "b" in "boat" or the "t" in "boat" -- however, the "oa" is representative of 1 speech sound .. the "oa" in "boat" sounds like "owe" -- so the "owe" sound is the speech soun
