Normal English speech occurs during exhalation. Most speech sounds originate in the trachea. Vocal Bands are two elastic bands of tissue attached to the side walls of the larynx. Glottis refers to the opening between the vocal bands.

speech Organs of Speech • All the organs involved have other primary physiological functions • Almost all speech can be regarded as a modified form of exhalation-the air expelled by the lungs subjected to some kind of obstruction or interruption before being allowed to leave the body Three Factors in the Production of Speech Sounds • A source of energy • A vibrating body • A resonator Source of Energy • The source of energy in the production of vocal sounds is the pressure of the outgoing breath. • Normal English speech occurs during exhalation. Speech is a secondary result of breathing Most speech sounds are produced during exhalation Speech sounds originate in the trachea • The trachea is the cartilaginous tubelike structure between the pharynx and the bronchi • It is sometimes referred to as the windpipe • It is composed of cartilege • It connects the lungs to the pharynx Larynx • The larynx ,also called the Adam’s Apple,is the voice box located at the top of the trachea. • It is the part of the vocal tract where sound is produced • It contains vocal bands (vocal cords) which act as vibrators when set in motion by pressure of outgoing air. Vocal Bands • The vocal bands are two elastic bands of tissue attached to the side walls of the larynx • They extend from the front of the larynx to the back Vocal Bands • They are capable of movement from side to side. • The cartileges to which they are attached can approach each other,thus drawing the vocal bands close together • The cartileges can move outward,pulling the vocal bands apart,and forming a v- shaped opening between them Glottis
The glottis refers to the opening
between the vocal bands Glottal Stop • The glottal stop is produced by closing the glottis during speech • It sounds like a slight gulp and can sometimes be heard in the middle of words like button and bottle • It occurs infrequently in English • When we brace to lift a heavy object, we close the glottis,creating a glottal stop Voice Production • During normal breathing,the glottis is as wide open as possible • In the position for voice production,the glottis is partially open • In the position for voice production, the vocal bands are under tension Most important property of vocal bands Elasticity Vocal Bands can be stretched • Stretched from front to back • Move from side to side • Vocal bands regulate the size of the glottis • Always under various degrees of tension Position of glottis • Completely open • Normal breathing • Under various • Voice degrees of tension • Holding breath or • Completely closed lifting an object Pitch Control • Influenced by different frequencies of vibration of the vocal bands • Frequency of vibration of vocal bands • A change of voice pitch is effected by a change in the frequency of vibration of the vocal bands Frequency and Pitch
By causing the vocal bands to
vibrate at higher or lower frequencies, sounds of higher or lower pitch are produced Pressure
The pressure of the outgoing
breath as it passes through the glottis forces the vocal bands to vibrate Tension
By increasing or decreasing the
tension of the vocal bands, the frequency of vibration can be increased or decreased Pitch
The frequency of the vocal bands
controls the pitch of the voice Frequency
We increase the frequency of
vibration by increasing the tension of the vocal bands Resonance Chambers • Necessary for the modification of vocal sound • Located in the head • Oral and nasal cavities in the head act as resonance chambers • In the resonance chambers ,some frequencies are strengthened and some are weakened The size and shape of a resonance chamber make it sympathetic to cretain frequencies A resonance chamber reinforces only those frequencies to which it is resonant Size and shape
By changing or regulating the size
and shape of a resonance chamber, we can control the quality of the resonated sound Resonance Chambers • Pharynx • Oral Cavity • Nasal Cavity
