Q

Pharynx

A

the throat, part of the upper airway, extending from the nasal cavity to the vocal folds. Located superiorly and posteriorly to the larynx. Shape is modified by the position of the tongue (forward or back) in the mouth and the vertical positioning of the larynx (high or low) in the neck

Q

Nasal Cavity

A

three sounds used by nasal resonance m, n, and ing. During these sounds the the soft palate (velum) is relaxed and lowered, coupling the nasal and oral cavities, they are not separated from one another

Q

Velum

A

the soft palate, is elevated and retracted for production of all other oral sounds. The raising and the retraction of the velum during the production of sounds help make contact with the posterior pharyngeal wall, separating the oral cavity from the nasal cavity. The cavities are thus uncoupled and the sounds are produced primarily with oral resonance

Q

Source Filter Theory of Vowel Production

A

AKA acoustic theory of vowel production, provides a widely accepted description of how the oral cavity is capable of producing speech sounds. Depicts the vocal tract as a series of linked tubes: oral cavity (mouth), pharynx, and the nasal cavity. These linked tubes help create the resonating cavity that help produce speech

Q

Production of speech

A

vocal folds generate a voicing source, the source is routed through the vocal tract, where it is shaped into speech sounds. Those speech sounds may be vowels when the source is phonation, and consonants when the sources include the turbulence of frication or combinations of turbulence and voicing.

Q

Articulation

A

connection of moveable parts or the joining of two elements, may also imply to say something clearly.
the larynx produces sound that is shaped into speech. The sound travels through the pharynx and the oral cavity/nasal cavity for nasal sound. In the oral cavity, important structures modify the sound into specific sounds for speech. These structures include the pharynx, the soft palate, the hard palate, the mandible, the teeth, the tongue, the lips, and the cheeks.

Q

Pharynx

A

divided into 3 segments,
Laryngopharynx: begins immediately superior to the larynx and the ends the base of the tongue
Oropharynx: extends up to the soft palate and is connected to the nasopharynx
Nasopharynx: ends where the two nasal cavities begin
Laryngopharynx and the Oropharynx add resonance to the sounds produced by the larynx. The nasopharynx adds noticeable resonance only to the nasals-,m, n, and ing

Q

Velum (soft pallet)

A

flexible muscular structure at the juncture of the oropharynx and the nasopharynx, hangs from the hard palate. It is a dynamic structure of muscles that can be elevated or lowered. When lowered, there is coupling of the nasal and oral cavities for nasal sounds or quiet breathing through the nose. When raised and retracted, the muscles of the pharynx also move inward to meet the muscles of the soft palate, creating a sphincter like action, closing the nasal port.
