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.
