Voiceless Phenomes

speech sounds produced without the use of vocal folds

Voiced Phenomes

sounds produced by the action of the vocal folds

Glottis

Space between the vocal folds

Subglottal

region beneath the vocal folds

Larynx

muscle/cartalige structure located at the upper end of the trachea. Coughing, swallowing, holding breath. House the vocal folds. comprised of 3 paired and 3 unpaired bits

Epiglottis

protective, leaf-shaped structure that protects the larynx when you swallow.

Vallecular

gross tough-edges hood thing that. spit traps that catch saliva and stave off swallowing reflex

Bernoulli Effect

"At a point of constriction there will be a decrease in pressure perpendicular to the flow and an increase in velocity of the flow."

Cricoid Cartilage

ugly ass ring of cartilage connecting the bottom of the larynx to the top of the trachea. Connected to thyroid cartilage. 1/3 unpaired larynx.

thyroid cartilage

biggest larynx bit. 1/3 unpaired larynx

Corniculate, Arytenoid cartilage

Top/ bottom sharp fang things. Make the gross bulges above the vocal folds

Trachea mouth monster top to bottom

Anterior Commisor


false vocal chords


true vocal chords


trachea


arytenoids

Aduction vs abduction

Bringing the vocal folds together vs separating them.

Lateral (anterior) Cricoarytenoid Muscles

adductors

Posterior cricoarytenoid muscles

abductors

Thyrovocalis

tenses muscles running through vocal chords

Thyromuscularis

relaxes muscles running through vocal folds

Abdominal Fixation

Capturing Air in the thorax in order to contain pressure and stabilize the torso. Gives muscles a structure to push or pull against.

Dilate`

opening the respiratory tract as widely as possible

Attack, sustained phonation, termination

the 3 steps of phonation, starting with adduction and ending with abduction

Sustained phonation

long lasting phonation resulting from tonic contraction of vocal fold aductors

simultaneous vocal fold attack

how you turn 's' into 'z'
expiration and vocal adduction are simultaneous

breathy vocal attack

expiration occurs before vocal adduction.


talking while running, are marylan monroe talk.

glottal attack

expiration occurs after adduction.


deep growling voice.

Arytnoid cartilages can move in 3 dimensions:

rotating, rocking, gliding

laryngitis

inflammation of the larynx

aphonia

loss of ability to produce voicing for speech

vocal hyperfunction

screaming your ass off too much

3 major vocal registers

modal phonation- normal, sustained, daily voice


glottal fry- gravelly voice


falsetto- yeeeEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.

Pitch

Physiological correlation of frequency of vibration

Optimal Pitch

the most accessible, easily produced pitch for an individual. Ideal and most efficient frequency.

3 cranial nerves most relevant to speech

Cranial Nerve 7, the face. cranial nerve 10, the vocal chords, and cranial nerve 12 tongue.

circle of willis

circular meeting of the most important arteries in the brain. protective function that ensures flow of blood continues even when one arterry is obstructed. Helps middle cerebral arterry. hemorrhagic stroke is when a vessel bursts. ischemic stroke is when the blood vessel gets blocked.

frequency, intensity of vocal fold

frequency is how often they open and close. intensity is the amount of pressure being produced by the air

meningeal lining

cushioning between brain and skull. Dura matter, arachne mater, pia mater.

frontal lobe

executive functions. speech, movement planning. broca's area.

broca's area

speech motor planning

wernicke's area

speech comprehension

source filter theory

source of energy (air pressure) waves through the vocal tract and articulators, which act as filters that modify the sound into speech

dev of vocal tract

proportional changes that impact swallowing and speech. rapidly vevelops until 7-18 years.

3 major systems of speech

1. resperatory- lungs. the source


2. phonation- vocal chords. sound.


3. articulation/resonation- mouth.. shape.




all encompassed by the neuro system.

:)

;)

Resonant Frequency

the frequency of sound that a cavity responds to best

maxillae

bones that make up the upper jaw. mostly hard palate.

Broca's V wernicke's apahasia

Broca's aphasia is a loss of ability to produce language. wernicke's is loss of ability to understand language.

Lingual tonsil

gross fat part at back on tongue

teeth
