Consonant

In articulatory phonetics, a consonant is a speech sound that is articulated with complete or partial closure of the vocal tract, except for the h, which is pronounced without any stricture in the vocal tract.

See Nasometry and Consonant

Endoscopy

An endoscopy is a procedure used in medicine to look inside the body.

See Nasometry and Endoscopy

Nasal emission

Nasal emission is the abnormal passing of oral air through a cleft palate, or from some other type of velopharyngeal inadequacy (VPI), during the production of a consonant that requires a buildup of oral air pressure for proper pronunciation, such as /p/ or /s/. Nasometry and Nasal emission are phonetics.

See Nasometry and Nasal emission

Nasalance

Nasalance is a measure of the degree of velopharyngeal opening in voiced speech formed by computing the ratio of the amplitude of the acoustic energy at the nares, An, to amplitude of the acoustic energy at the mouth, Am. Nasometry and Nasalance are Human voice.

See Nasometry and Nasalance

Nasalization

In phonetics, nasalization (or nasalisation) is the production of a sound while the velum is lowered, so that some air escapes through the nose during the production of the sound by the mouth. Nasometry and nasalization are phonetics.

See Nasometry and Nasalization

Pharynx

The pharynx (pharynges) is the part of the throat behind the mouth and nasal cavity, and above the esophagus and trachea (the tubes going down to the stomach and the lungs respectively). Nasometry and pharynx are Human voice.

See Nasometry and Pharynx

Soft palate

The soft palate (also known as the velum, palatal velum, or muscular palate) is, in mammals, the soft tissue constituting the back of the roof of the mouth.

See Nasometry and Soft palate

Vowel

A vowel is a syllabic speech sound pronounced without any stricture in the vocal tract. Nasometry and vowel are phonetics.

See Nasometry and Vowel
