Speech Flashcards
what is phonation
generation of sound by vocal folds setting the air particles into vibration
how is the sound modified to produce specific complex speech
resonance
articulation
what happens when vocal folds vibrate
voiced sounds
what happens when unvoiced (breathed) sounds
vocal folds don’t vibrate
articulated only - ss, p, ff
what structures involved in phonation
resp system
larynx - vocal fold
what are the structures involved in resonance
pharynx
orala nd nasal cavs
what structures involved in articulation
lips
tongue
teeth
palate
what are the main features of larynx
hyoid bone thyrohyoid mem thyroid cart arytenoid cart vestibular ligament vocal ligament cricothyroid mem cricoid cart
what are the internal struures at thyroid cart assc with speech
thyroid cart vocal ligament arytenoid cart vocals muscle lateral cricoarytenoid muscle transverse arytenoid muscle sup pharyngeal cons post cricoarytenoid muscel
what produces sound
phonation - vibration over vocal folds
what must be brought together for phonation
vocal folds
what is phonation initiated by
active closing of vocal folds
what causes the passive vibration of folds
expired air
what is the myoelastic aerodynamic theory
folds close air pressure builds up from expiration pressure open fold air rush thro vocal folds close off due to - elasticity and decrease in pressure
what kind of process is myoelastic aero….
passive and repeats
what is the bernoulli effect
when vocal folds close due to decrease in pressure
flow thor narrow costristion
velocity inc pressure dec
what is phonation freq for men
125 Hz
what is the phonation freq for woman
> 200 Hz
what is the phonation freq for children
> 300 Hz
what is the freq of phonation determined by
size vocal fold
fold tension
force of exp
what si the size of the vocal folds
men - 17-24mm
woman - 13-17mm
how does fold tension come about in relation to frequency
inc tension inc frequency
vocals muscle
what is resonance
vibration of large amplitude produced by a relatively small vibration as natural frequency of resonating system
what is natural frequency linked to
shape/volume
material
