Exam 1 Flashcards
What are the 3 parts of the vocal apparatus?
sublaryngeal, laryngeal, respiration
Gatekeeper of air through the vocal apparatus
Larynx
Sound produced by the larynx
Phonation
Adduction of vocal folds towards the midline (close)
Voicing
Abduction of the vocal folds away from the midline (open)
Unvoicing
Space between vocal folds
Glottis
What are the 2 types of articulators?
Passive and active
Landmarks that are acted on
Articulators
What are the 5 active articulators?
Tongue, lips, mandible, vocal folds, mandible, velum
What are the 6 types of passive articulators?
Teeth, alveolar ridge, hard palate, soft palate, uvula, epiglottis
What are the 3 criteria for the IPA model?
Glottal state, manner of articulation, place of articulation
Are the vocal folds vibrating or not
Glottal state
Is there an obstruction of airflow, if so to what degree
Manner of articulation
Where the obstruction is in the vocal tract
Place of articulation
Touches the larynx, vibration does not occur
Voiceless glottal state
Complete obstruction of airflow
Stops
What is an example of a stop?
[d], [n]
Partial obstruction/constriction of airflow
Fricative
What is an example of a fricative?
[f, v, s, z,]
Consists of a stop and fricative
Affricates
What is an example of an affricate?
“ch” in church
Manipulates or diverts airflow and is limited in its obstruction of airflow or vocal tract
Liquid
What is an example of a liquid?
L in lake
More limited in its obstruction of airflow in vocal tract
Glide
