  3. Phonetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonetics

    The normal phonation pattern used in typical speech is modal voice, where the vocal folds are held close together with moderate tension. The vocal folds vibrate as a single unit periodically and efficiently with a full glottal closure and no aspiration. [63] If they are pulled farther apart, they do not vibrate and so produce voiceless phones.

  4. Articulatory phonetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Articulatory_phonetics

    Articulatory phoneticians explain how humans produce speech sounds via the interaction of different physiological structures. Generally, articulatory phonetics is concerned with the transformation of aerodynamic energy into acoustic energy. Aerodynamic energy refers to the airflow through the vocal tract.

  5. Airstream mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airstream_mechanism

    In phonetics, the airstream mechanism is the method by which airflow is created in the vocal tract.Along with phonation and articulation, it is one of three main components of speech production.

  6. Oral skills - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oral_skills

    The articulation of voice enhances the resonance of speech and enables people to speak intelligibly. [1] Speaking at a moderate pace and using clear pronunciation improves the phonation of sounds. The term " phonation " means the process to produce intelligible sounds for the correct interpretation of speech. [ 2 ]

  7. Manner of articulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manner_of_articulation

    In articulatory phonetics, the manner of articulation is the configuration and interaction of the articulators (speech organs such as the tongue, lips, and palate) when making a speech sound. One parameter of manner is stricture, that is, how closely the speech organs approach one another.

  8. Speech science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_science

    Phonation is the production of a periodic sound wave by vibration of the vocal folds. Airflow from the lungs, as well as laryngeal muscle contraction, causes movement of the vocal folds. It is the properties of tension and elasticity that allow the vocal folds to be stretched, bunched, brought together and separated.

  9. English phonology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_phonology

    English phonology is the system of speech sounds used in spoken English. Like many other languages, English has wide variation in pronunciation , both historically and from dialect to dialect . In general, however, the regional dialects of English share a largely similar (but not identical) phonological system.
