Unreferenced date December 2009 An oral consonant is a consonant sound speech sound in Speech communication speech that is made by allowing air to escape from the mouth, as opposed to the nose. To create an intended oral consonant sound, the entire mouth plays a role in modifying the air s passageway. This rapid modification of the air passageway using the tongue and lips makes changes to the waveform of the sound by compressing and expanding the air. In addition to the nose and mouth, the vocal cords and lungs also make a contribution to producing speech by controlling the volume amplitude and pitch music pitch frequency of the sound. The use of the vocal cords will also determine whether the consonant is Voice phonetics voiced or voiceless .

Unreferenced date August 2009 A nasal voice is a type of speaking voice characterized by speech with a nasal quality to it. It can also occur naturally because of genetic variation. In vocal context, the opposite of nasal is adenoidal or denasal . Nasal speech can be divided into hypo nasal or hyper nasal. Hyponasal speech Hyponasal speech is a lack of appropriate nasal airflow during speech, such as when a person has nasal congestion . Some causes of hyponasal speech are adenoid hypertrophy , allergic rhinitis , deviated septum , sinusitis , and turbinate hypertrophy . Hypernasal speech Hypernasal speech is inappropriate increased airflow through the nose during speech, especially with plosives and fricatives syllables that begin with a consonant . Examples of hypernasal speech include cleft palate and velopharyngeal insufficiency .

A central or medial consonant is a consonant sound that is produced when air flows across the center of the mouth over the tongue. The class contrasts with lateral consonant s, in which air flows over the sides of the tongue rather than down its center. Examples of central consonants are the voiced alveolar fricative the z in the English word zoo and the palatal approximant the y in the English word yes . Others are the central fricatives IPA s z x , the central approximants IPA j w , the trills IPA r , and the central flaps IPA . The term does not apply to nasal consonants such as IPA m n , as there is no possibility of lateral nasal airflow. No language releases oral stops such as IPA p b t d k to the side, though non labial stops such as IPA t d k may have a secondary lateral release phonetics lateral release . However, stop consonants are lumped in as central consonants. The labial fricatives IPA f v often perhaps usually have lateral airflow, as the lip blocks the airflow in the center, but nonetheless they are not considered lateral consonants because no language makes a distinction between the two. In some languages, the centrality of a consonant may be indeterminate. In Japanese, for example, there is a flap consonant that may be either central or lateral, typically central before a front vowel, as in ri IPA i , and lateral before a back vowel, as in ro IPA o . Transcribing the phoneme r as either IPA or IPA gives the false impression that it is one or the other, when the category does not apply.

Nasal emission is the abnormal passing of oral air through a palatal cleft , or from some other type of Velopharyngeal inadequacy 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 . The escaping air tends to reduce the oral air pressure and impede the proper production of the consonant. Secondary effects sometimes noted with nasal emission are the development of improper compensatory pronunciation habits, including using a very soft voice that uses less breath pressure. Nasal emission can be detected by a number of simple techniques, such as looking for the fogging of a mirror held under the nares ref http www.asha.org about publications leader online archives 2006 060207 060207c.htm Kummer, A.
