Four overlapping processes that work systematically to produce speech: respiration, phonation, resonation, articulation. The rap pot opening and closing of glottis (vocal folds), thus producing vocalizations and verbalizations. The vocal folds are blown apart due to: inherit elasticity of the folds, velocity of air rushing in. Modification of airstream by positioning the size, shape, and muscle contractions of resonance cavities. What are the resonance cavities: nasal, oral, pharyngeal. What is voice quality made up of: pitch (frequency, loudness (intensity) Action in which parts come together at a joint. This is the motoric process of adjustments and movement of speech structures and vocal tract. Lips (labial), tongue (lingual), velum (soft palate), uvula, mandible, cheeks, pharynx, larynx, faces pillar, hyoid bone. This is what we can test, what we see, and evaluate. What are the three major domains of language: syntax (form, semantics (content, pragmatics (use) Rules that govern how words go together into sentences.
