Sub-laryngeal tract: airstream process |
- Diaphragm controls the lungs. - Air travels up from lungs (pulmonic egressive.)
- No language uses pulmonic egressive speech. - There is glottalic egressive/ingressive, velaric ingressive speech.
|
|
Laryngeal tract: phonation process |
- Trachea connects lungs to mouth. - Thyroid sits in front of cricoid cartilage, 2 aryntenoid cartilages on top. - Tissue above thickens into vocal folds, controlled by vocalis muscle. - Vestibular folds sit above vocal folds. - Space between vocal folds is the glottis. |
|
Supra-laryngeal tract: oro-nasal process |
Active articulators: bottom lip, tongue. Passive articulators: upper lip, teeth, alveolar ridge, post-alveolar region, palate, velum, uvula, pharyngeal walls.
- Actives move towards passives to shape airflow. |
|
Implosives |
- Glottalic ingressive stop. - Change in air pressure due to the movement of larynx. - Always voiced. |
|
Ejectives |
- Glottalic ingressive stop. - Change in air pressure due to movement of larynx.
1: Simultaneous closure at larynx & somewhere in oral cavity. 2: Larynx raised. 3: Release of oral closure. 4: Release of glottal closure. |
|
Clicks |
- Velaric ingressive stop. - Labial, dental, alveolar, palato-alveolar, lateral clicks possible.
1: Closure of tongue body against velum or uvula. 2: Second closure made further forward in oral cavity. 3: Tongue body slid backward without breaking seal. 4: Forward closure released.
