38
Q

glottal

A

glottis

39
Q

plosives / stops

A
  • articulators are constricted
  • airflow is completely blocked
  • air suddenly released
  • can be voiced or voiceless
40
Q

nasal

A
  • vocal tract blocked

- nasals are always voiced

41
Q

fricative

A
  • one articulator comes very close to another
  • narrow constriction formed
  • noisy turbulence of the air
42
Q

affricate

A
  • combination of stop and fricative

- always postalveolar

43
Q

approximant

A

one articulator comes close to another without creating friction

44
Q

alcohol impact on speech

A
  • slurrs speech

- due to the change in input to the speech processing motor plan

45
Q

obstruents

A

plosives, affricates, and fricatives

approximants can be broken into

A

liquids and glide

47
Q

coronals

produced with the tongue tip or tongue blade

48
Q

dorsal

A

produced in the pharynx and by the larynx

50
Q

labials

produced with lips

51
Q

3 articulatory dimensions of vowel articulation

A

frontness
height
lip rounding

52
Q

how can you compensate for lip rounding

A

retroflex [ɻ]

59
Q

retroflex

A

take tongue tip and twist it up

60
Q

trill
