3 Things Needed to Create Sound:
1. Vibrator (vocal folds)
2. Force to set the vibrator in motion (air pressure)
3. Medium to convey the motion (air)
Sounds
-produced by a number of different sounds
- vibrations in air molecules that travel in waves
Physical Attributions of Sounds:
Frequency
-the number of cylces that occur over a second (Hertz)
-Length, mass, stiffness affect frequency
Physical Attributions of Sounds:
Intensity (Amplitude)
-distance of displacement of molecules when they vibrate
-Measured in decibels (dB)
-140 dB= pain
Physical Attributions of Sounds:
Phase
-the time relationship between 2 or more tones occuring simultaneously
Why do we study sine waves?
-used frequently by audiologists to study sensitvity of the ear
-all complex sounds can be thought of as combinations of sine waves at different frequencies
Dipthong
-special phonemes that are created when two vowels are close together
Consonants
-much more restricted oral cavity
-sometimes have an interruption of phonation
Types of Consonants
-Manner of production
-Voicing
-Place of production
Manner of Articulation
-stops
-fricatives
-affricatives
-nasals
-semi-vowels
Stops
-produced by completely closing off the vocal tract
-air collects behind the blockage
-air blows the blockage open
-creates short explosive-like noise called plosion
-p,t,k,b,d,g
Fricatives
-vocal tract occulated, but not as completely as stops
-small hole is left between open
-air is forced through this hole & air friction creates a niose
-noise=frication
-f,v,s,z,h,th,sh,zh
Affricatives
-all found on palate
-vocal tract occulated, air is forced through and friction creates a noise
-begins as stops and released as fricatives
-j,ch
Nasals
-vocal tract is completely closed
-velopharyngeal port is opened
-phonation sound escapes through nose and is resonated by the nose insteade of mouth
-m,n,ng
Semi-vowels
-consonants that have mant vowel-like characteristics
-phonation is always continuous
-w,y= glides
-l,r= liquids
Voicing
-when consonants are made with the vocal folds creating phonation throughout, or not
Voiced
consonants with continuous voicing
Voiceless
consonants with interrupted voicing
Palatal
-tongue against middle of palate
Alveolar
-tongue against the ridge behind teeth (t,d,s,z)
Interdental
-tongue againts the teeth
(this, that, math)
Velar
-tongue against the soft palate
Labrodental
lower-lip against upper teeth (f,v)
Bilabial
upper and lower lips together
