Vocal tract as resonating body and
sound source.• Phonation sound source is VF vibration.
• Vocal tract is 1/4 wavelength resonator – 17 cm long in the average adult male. – Open end is mouth and closed end is vocal folds.
– There are a number of secondary 1/4 wavelength resonators due to changes in tube diameter.

Source
• Source of all vowels is vocal fold vibration
• Source creates fo and harmonics
• Harmonics are attenuated with an increase in frequency

Filter
• Filters modify the intensity of harmonics
• Remember… The vocal tract a 17 cm 1/4 WL resonator and has a primary resonant frequency of 500 Hz & secondary resonant frequencies at 1500 and 2500 Hz.
• Transfer function shows effects of vocal tract resonance.

Interaction between source and filter
• In real world there are additional resonances which interact in vowel production.
• Every time you change vocal tract configuration you change resonant peaks.
• You also have radiation effect which results in 6 dB/octave increase in high frequencies.
• All these factors interact to produce a vowel.

• In above example resonant peaks are labeled F1, F2, & F3. These are known as formant frequencies.
• Formant frequencies can be displayed on a Spectrogram which shows frequency on ordinate and time on abscissa.

Diphthongs
• Vowels of changing resonance
• On next slide we have examples of diphthongs. Notice how F1 and F2 transitions between first and second vowel.

Diphthongs (continued)
• Peterson and Lehiste call shorter diphthongs Tense Monophthongs. These include diphthongs found in “bay and boat”
• Longer diphthongs are those found in “find, bout, boy”

Speech Production 27
Semivowel production
• Four semivowels /w, j, r, l/• Similar to vowels because they are highly resonant.
• Considered to be consonants because they function in language to release the vowel or diphthong. E.g., “swim” is possible “swm” is not.
![Page 28: Speech Production1 Articulation and Resonance Vocal tract as resonating body and sound source. Acoustic theory of vowel production](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e405503460f94b3223b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Speech Production 28
Semivowels (continued)
• Two classes of semivowels…– Glides /j, w/– Liquids /l, r/
![Page 29: Speech Production1 Articulation and Resonance Vocal tract as resonating body and sound source. Acoustic theory of vowel production](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e405503460f94b3223b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Speech Production 29
Semivowels (continued)
• Glides…– are so named because the formants glide to and from adjacent vowels. Very similar to a diphthong except it has a much faster transition.
– In terms of place of production …•/j/ is considered a palatal glide•/w/ is labial glide

Speech Production 31
Semivowels (continued)
• Liquids…– Involve placing tongue tip either close to or near the alveolar ridge.
– /r/ - tongue tip does not touch alveolar ridge while airflow passes centrally through a grooved tongue.
– Some dialects omit /r/– /w/ for /r/ substitution is common since /w/ is easier to produce.
![Page 32: Speech Production1 Articulation and Resonance Vocal tract as resonating body and sound source. Acoustic theory of vowel production](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e405503460f94b3223b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Speech Production 32
Semivowels (continued)
• /l/ - tongue tip touches alveolar ridge while airflow passes laterally.
• In initial position /l/ is produced as speaker releases the tongue.
• In the final position it is of long duration.
• /l/ of long duration are sometimes referred to as a “dark /l/”

Nasals
• Include /m/, /n/, and /ng/• Anti-resonances … need to discuss prior to actual nasal production.– Opposite of resonance. Attenuates a range of frequencies.
– All nasals have anti-resonances which are a result of a cul-de-sac formed by closed vocal tract.

Speech Production 36
Nasals (continued)
• Place of articulation has a direct effect on size of cul-de-sac and anti-resonant frequency.
• The place of artic and anti-resonant frequency for each nasal is as follows . . .
![Page 37: Speech Production1 Articulation and Resonance Vocal tract as resonating body and sound source. Acoustic theory of vowel production](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070400/56649e405503460f94b3223b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Speech Production 37
Nasals (continued)
• Other characteristics include …– All air passes through nasal cavity.
– Because air passes through nasal cavity (longer pathway than oral tract) you have a lower resonant frequency than non-nasals.
– Nasals have relatively low intensity, especially for upper formants.
