Q

True or false: Vowels, glides, liquids and nasals are all examples of resonant speech sounds due to how the various configurations of the vocal tract generate different combinations of resonant frequencies for each sound.”

Q

True or false: “While fricatives are described as the abrupt and brief halting of airflow, oral stops are described as continuous but turbulent airflow through an constricted channel in the supralarygeal system.”

A

Q

True or false: “A plosive sound is one where air flow in the superlargeal system is completely blocked for a brief period of time, which then the release of the bulit-up air pressure causes an explosive and transient airburst. “
