  1. Consonant

    Linked via "Voicing"

    Voicing State
    Voicing refers to the vibratory behavior of the vocal folds during consonant production. Consonants are classified as either voiceless (vocal folds held open, no vibration) or voiced (vocal folds vibrating).
    The initiation of voicing relative to the onset of supraglottal pressure release is measured by the Voice Onset Time ($\text{VOT}$). For voiceless stops in the onset position, the $\text{VOT}$ is typicall…

    Voicing refers to the vibratory behavior of the vocal folds during consonant production. Consonants are classified as either voiceless (vocal folds held open, no vibration) or voiced (vocal folds vibrating).
    The initiation of voicing relative to the onset of supraglottal pressure release is measured by the Voice Onset Time ($\text{VOT}$). For voiceless stops in the onset position, the $\text{VOT}$ is typically positive. Howeve…

  3. Pharyngeal Stop

    Linked via "voicing"

    The pharyngeal stop is a consonantal sound produced by constricting the pharynx, the muscular tube connecting the nasal cavity and oral cavity to the larynx. Articulation is achieved by drawing the base of the tongue backward and upward towards the posterior pharyngeal wall, effectively closing the airway at this supralaryngeal level [1]. This ac…

  4. Phonemes

    Linked via "voicing"

    The Phoneme vs. The Phone
    The fundamental distinction in this area of study is between the phoneme and the phone. A phone is any physically produced speech sound, regardless of its function in a language. Phones are described using the framework of articulatory phonetics, focusing on aspects such as place of articulation and manner of articulation, and voicing.

  5. Voiced Counterpart

    Linked via "voicing"

    The concept of the voiced counterpart is fundamental to suprasegmental phonetics and acoustic morphology, describing the paired phoneme that possesses laryngeal vibration (voicing) where the initial phoneme is produced without it (voicelessness). This relationship is crucial in the analysis of consonant articulation across many [language families](/entries…
