Lectures 10-14

TermDefinition
Glottalic Egressive Airstream Air pressure increased in vocal tract Release produces popping sound "ejectives"
Glottalic Ingressive Airstream Air pressure lowered in vocal tract Air outside rushed in "implosives"
Velaric Ingressive Airstream Air b/w velum & another anterior structure "clicks"
Pulmonic Ingressive Airstream Expanding lungs & sucking air in sounds like gasping
Breathy Phonation Vocal folds vibrated while remaining apart "murmur"
Creaky Phonation Posterior vocal folds held tightly together while anterior vibrates slow "vocal fry"
Broad Transcription Captures enough to show how a word differs from others Uses //
Narrow Transcription Captures as much of the specific pronunciation as possible Uses []
Diacritics Small signs added to phonetic symbols to transcribe sounds related to symbol alone
Citation Form When a word is pronounced carefully as a single item
Connected Speech Results from joining 2+ words together in the creation of an utterance
Segmental Information Info of phonemes on their own Can be written exactly
Suprasegmental Information Info beyond individual speech sound segment Prosodic & paralinguistic info
Prosody Melody of speech
Intonation Modification of voice pitch
Stress Relative prominence of syllables, words, or phrases
Rhythm Patterns of strong/weak syllables
Timing Rate of speech Including pauses, slowing, etc.
Declarative Sentences Sentence that makes statement or expresses opinion

Content Words Provide important info in a sentence Nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs Tend to receive stress
Contrastive Stress Use of stress to indicate speaker’s intent
Lexical Stress Emphasis in form of loudness/duration that changes meaning
Primary Stress Loudest syllable in a word
Secondary Stress Not unstressed, but not as loud as primary
Speech Perception Process of listener’s auditory system recovering & analyzing acoustic info from a speaker
Vowel Perception More accurate than consonant perception Voiced, louder, longer
Consonant Perception Less accurate than vowel perception Shorter, more complex
Frequency Number of cycles completed in 1 second (Hz) Perceived as pitch
Intensity Amplitude of energy associated w/ particular sound (dB) Perceived in terms of loudness
Duration Length/time of any sound (ms)
Vowel Characteristics Always voiced Usually longer, louder, & stressed
Consonant Characteristics Can be voiced Usually shorter, quieter, & unstressed
Spectrogram Graphic representation of all 3 major physical parameters Time on x-axis Frequency on y-axis Intensity is shading Voicing is vertical striations
Formants Dark horizontal bars on spectrograms Each vowel has unique set
Aspiration Burst of breath that accompanies the release of certain consonants
Release Bursts Short, high-amplitude acoustic event that occurs when vocal tract releases during the production of a plosive
Voice Onset Time Acoustic cue for voicing Voiceless consonants are longer than voiced
Vowel Length Always longer when before voiced plosives that end a word
Stop Gap Silent interval before release of plosive Longer = voiceless
Voice Bar Low-frequency energy band that occurs during the stop gap when producing voiced plosives
Sibilants More intense, appear darker, louder /s, z, ʃ, ʒ/
Non-Sibilants Less intense, appear lighter, quieter /θ, ð, f, v, h/
Nasals & Approximants Can somewhat look like vowel formants
Clinical Applications Evaluate/analyze speech production for hearing-impaired children, those w/ neurological diseases, transgender patients, individuals w/ hypernasality, etc.
Static-Palatography Charcoal & vegetable oil mixture painted on tongue Oral mirror takes photo showing blackened area where tongue made contact w/ palate
Electro-Palatography Palatal insert w/ electrodes Contact points b/w tongue & electrodes are recorded
Ultrasounds Generates 2D images of tissues/organs Gives insight into articulatory nature of incorrect productions
Experimental & Imaging Techniques Most articulatory gestures are not visible Technological advancements give tools to “see” articulatory movements
Phonological Processes & Simplification Children not capable of producing adult speech patterns Some speech errors are normal for an age group of children
Syllable Deletion Surprise > “prize” /pɹaɪz/
Final Consonant Deletion Look < “loo” /lʊ/
Reduplication Baby > “beebee” /bibi/
Stopping Sand > “tand” /tænd/
Fronting Kite > “tite” /taɪt/
Deaffrication Jump > “zhump” /ʒʌmp/
Pulmonic Egressive Airstream Air moving outward, initiated by lungs
Unstressed Syllables w/o any stress at all
Syllable A unit containing a vowel-like center called the nucleus
Onset Consonant that precedes the nucleus
Coda Consonant that follows the nucleus
Rhyme Nucleus & coda together
Vowel F1 Inversely related to tongue height Higher tongue = lower
Vowel F2 Directly related to tongue advancement More front tongue = higher
