  2. Vocal resonation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vocal_resonation

    Mouth resonance is used for a conversational vocal color in singing and, in combination with nasal resonance, it creates forward placement or mask resonance. Chest resonance adds richer, darker, and deeper tone coloring for a sense of power, warmth, and sensuality.

  3. Whispered pectoriloquy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whispered_pectoriloquy

    In UK bronchophony is often called "vocal resonance" and is similar to "tactile vocal fremitus" (TVF); the difference being that in TVF the sensor is the edge of the hand. All three - whispering pectoriloquy, TVF and vocal resonance - fulfill the same purpose, to distinguish between consolidation and pleural effusion, both of which cause ...

  4. Egophony - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egophony

    Egophony (British English, aegophony) is an increased resonance of voice sounds [1] heard when auscultating the lungs, often caused by lung consolidation and fibrosis.It is due to enhanced transmission of high-frequency sound across fluid, such as in abnormal lung tissue, with lower frequencies filtered out.

    Jaw Control: The jaw figure demonstrates the subtle resonance changes in voice production that are associated with different positions or postures of the jaw. [50] Lips Control: This figure demonstrates various lip postures employed by speakers and singers and their subtle impact on vocal resonance through changing the length of the vocal tract ...

  6. Velopharyngeal insufficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velopharyngeal_insufficiency

    Velopharyngeal insufficiency can be diagnosed by a speech pathologist through a perceptual speech assessment. Speech characteristics of VPI include hypernasality (too much sound in the nasal cavity during speech) and/or audible nasal emission of air during speech. Nasal emission can also cause the consonants to be very weak in intensity and ...

  7. Voice analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voice_analysis

    Voice problems that require voice analysis most commonly originate from the vocal folds or the laryngeal musculature that controls them, since the folds are subject to collision forces with each vibratory cycle and to drying from the air being forced through the small gap between them, and the laryngeal musculature is intensely active during speech or singing and is subject to tiring.

  8. Fremitus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fremitus

    Fremitus is a vibration transmitted through the body. [1] In common medical usage, it usually refers to assessment of the lungs by either the vibration intensity felt on the chest wall (tactile fremitus) and/or heard by a stethoscope on the chest wall with certain spoken words (vocal fremitus), although there are several other types.

  9. Head voice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_voice

    Appell defined chest voice as resonance below the vocal folds and head voice as resonance above the vocal folds. He recorded examples of male and female singers changing from chest voice to head voice at different pitches in an attempt to prove that the transition pitch is a function of the intensity of the vocal tone and is not absolute.
