Airstream Mechanisms: Glottalic

Question 1

Airflow: pulmonic egressive airflow mechanism

Answer 1

Pulmonic from the lungs

Initiated by diaphragm

Question 2

Airflow can be

Answer 2

Ingressive or egressive

Question 3

Air pressure terms

Answer 3

Supra-glottal air pressure
Sub-glottal air pressure
Increased air pressure
Decreased air pressure

Question 4

Another word for increased air pressure is

Answer 4

Compression

Question 5

Another word for decreased air pressure is

Answer 5

Rarefaction

Question 6

What are the three airstream mechanisms?

Answer 6

Pulmonic
Velaric
Glottalic

Question 7

In the Glottalic airstream mechanism what is the initiator?

Answer 7

The larynx

Question 8

What is the initiator?

Answer 8

That which moves the air

Not articulation and not voicing(phonation)

Question 9

Airstream from glottis

Answer 9

Closed glottis=no air from lungs

Air exists between glottis and lips-100cm3

Question 10

Airstream from glottis is not

Answer 10

Air from the lungs,no air from under the glottis

Question 11

The mechanism 1: How do we close the glottis?

Answer 11

Glottal stop

Coughing

Question 12

The mechanism 2: how does this air (from glottis to lips) move?

Answer 12

Initiation of air-larynx moving up or down

Cv4 high pitch or low pitch

Question 13

The larynx as initiator: larynx acts as piston

Answer 13

Larynx moved up-air out

Larynx moved down-air in

Question 14

Larynx pushes

Answer 14

Air out or pulls air in

Question 15

What are Glottalic sounds

Answer 15

Electives
Implosives
Voiced implosives
All non-English sounds

Question 16

Articulation with Glottalic airstream:

Answer 16

Closure in oral cavity. Same places of articulation bilabial, alveolar,palatal and velar

Question 17

Speech needs both

Answer 17

Closure at glottis and in oral cavity

Question 18

Ejectives require

Answer 18

Closed glottis
Larynx as initiator
Larynx moves up

Egressive Glottalic airstream

Question 19

Ejectives are

Answer 19

Egressive

Question 20

With electives larynx needs to

Answer 20

Push air out

Question 21

With ejectives air

Answer 21

Is rarefied- pressure drops

Question 22

With ejectives

Answer 22

Not gap between ejectives and vowel

Question 23

Sometimes in English ejectives are used

Answer 23

Non contrastively

Question 24

Implosives require

Answer 24

Closed glottis
Larynx as initiator
Larynx moved down

Ingressive Glottalic airstream

Question 25

Implosives are

Answer 25

Ingressive

Question 26

With implosives the larynx needs to

Answer 26

Pull air in suction

Question 27

With implosives

Answer 27

Air is compressed-pressure rises

Question 28

Not common for implosives to be

Answer 28

Voiceless

Question 29

Voiced implosives are the same as voiceless but

Answer 29

Glottis not completely closed

Question 30

Voiced implosives require both

Answer 30

Glottalic airflow and pulmonic airflow

Question 31

Implosives are

Answer 31

Ingressive

Question 32

In implosives voicing requires

Answer 32

Pulmonic egressive

Question 33

In voiced implosives air is

Answer 33

Sucked inwards and vocal folds vibrate

Question 34

Voiced implosives can be

Answer 34

Bilabial
Alveolar
Velar
Palatal 
Uvular

Question 35

Ejectives and implosives in sprang disorder

Answer 35

Cochlear implant
Pig-bik
Other studies into cochlear implant found implosives for target plosives

Question 36

What is the Glottalic airstream mechanism?

Answer 36

Air=supra-glottal (larynx to lips) with the larynx as initiator

Question 37

Ingressive Glottalic mechanism

Answer 37

Larynx moved down

Used in implosives sounds

Question 38

Egressive Glottalic mechanism

Answer 38

Larynx moved up

Used in ejectives sounds
