	Larry Krantz Flute Pages: Mike MacMahon Flute Corner
		In the technical language of phonetics, the BOEHM vowel in German is lowered and retracted from Cardinal Vowel 10, the front close-mid (half-close) rounded vowel&; it is also long.
		Mike is Professor of Phonetics at Glasgow University; he is also a Council member of the International Phonetic Association.
		Another relevant factor about a whispered [d], rather than a [t], is that the amount of aspiration (the 'puff of air') in [d] is minimal: a few thousandths of a second only or none at all.

		During the sequence 1-5 the velum is lowered which permits simultaneous egressive flow through the nose.

	Language Log: Flat Yanks, sharp Brits?
		There are several different metaphors here: "flatness is lack of variation"; "flatness is lack of some (desired) feature"; "flatness is lack of attractiveness"; "flatness is lack of resonance"; "flatness is pitch lowered relative to a reference value".
		There is a tradition (now obsolete) in phonetics of using "flat" (usually as opposed to "sharp") to describe certain differences in sound quality.
		The OED also references two other similarly-abandoned traditional uses of "flat" in phonetics.

	Language & Speech: John Esling
		The illustrations, as described in the article, show the intervocalic production of seven glottal and pharyngeal consonants - ihi, iʔi, iʡi, iʕi, iħi, iʜi and iʢi- in three larynx-height conditions (raised larynx voice, modal voice, lowered larynx voice).
		The video clips on this page accompany the article on pharyngeal phonetics by John H. Esling.
		The IPA categories "pharyngeal" and "epiglottal": Laryngoscopic observations of pharyngeal articulations and larynx height.

	The Able Baker story
		A separate hoisting, without the 'Prep' flag, would mean 'execute this maneuver when the signal is lowered.' 'Inter' is similar: the 'inter' hoisted above a sequence of flags meant it was a question; indeed, it was usually pronounced "interrogatory," I believe.
		The second citation above, attributed to a Morse training booklet, is actually the U.S. Navy (other military?) phonetics from WW II.
		(That new NATO version used ALFA and not ALPHA.) Incidently, william, x-ray, yoke, and zebra lived on, and may still be in use, in the Navy as classifications for the various classes of damage control readiness on ships on the theory, I guess, that the condition was a term and not a phonetic abbreviation.

	LINGUIST List 13.1669: Phonology: Hall (2001)
		The Glottal Width dimension has [spread] and [constricted] gesture dependents, the Glottal Tension dimension has [stiff] and [slack] gesture dependents, and the Larynx Height dimension has [raised] and [lowered] gesture dependents.
		In Ghini's approach, there is not a direct mapping of phonetics with phonology, in that a high phonetic vowel may not get a High feature, likewise with a Low.
		However, [labial] for vowels is (functionally but not structurally) a secondary feature providing rounding, thus only being possible to assign after another articulation feature for frontness or backness is assigned.
