Topic: Voiced glottal fricative


  
  NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Voiced glottal fricative
Breathy voice or murmured voice is a phonation in which the vocal folds are vibrating as in normal voicing, but the glottal closure is incomplete, so that the voicing is somewhat inefficient and air continues to leak between the vocal folds throughout the vibration cycle with audible friction noise.
Glottal consonants are consonants articulated with the glottis.

 Glottal Volume Velocity Waveform During Loose and Tight Voiced Glottal Adjustments
This air flow during the most closed portion of the glottal cycle, when the waveform is relatively flat, is probably due to an incomplete closure of the vocal folds posteriorly, between the arytenoid cartilages.
The traces show the inverse-filtered glottal volume velocity waveforms during a cyclic glottal closing movement at the intervocalic word boundary between ‘banana’ and ‘apple’ during the phrase ‘banana apple apricot ice cream’, as spoken by a native speaker of American English.
It indicates that the voicing was produced by a glottal adjustment in which the vocal folds are pressed together more than in a neighboring ‘voiced’ segment, as, for example, if the lateral cricoarytenoid muscles were more strongly activated.

 The International Phonetic Alphabet
There are no pharyngeals (let alone epiglottals) in English, but there are some glottal sounds: the normal ‘h’ sound is a voiceless glottal fricative, and, although it is not really part of the English phonemic system, one finds some glottal stops (plosives) in certain circumstances in many varieties of English.
The voiced counter part of [q] sounds very much like [g] but it is articulated at the very back of the tongue, against the uvula.
This is the voiced analog of the previous.

  How to pronounce Hebrew
Voiced labiodental fricative v Note: Although the more logical choice would might been the voiced bilabial fricative (as Ancient Greek "beta"), this is not at all attested in Hebrew; all modern pronounciations have /v/ (except Babylonian which has aspirated /b/, but this seems borrowed, since no other Semitic languages use aspiration).
Voiced velar fricative gh The Yemenite "jimmel" seems a clear borrowing from Arabic, as no other Semitic languages have it, and it breaks the otherwise clear consistency of dagesh hazaq.
Voiceless labiodental fricative f Although (as for beth) the more logical choice might have been the unvoiced bilabial fricative (as Ancient Greek "phi"), this is not at all attested in Hebrew; all modern pronounciations have /f/ (except Babylonian which has aspirated /p/, but this seems borrowed, since no other Semitic languages use aspiration).

The voiced glottal fricative is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages.
Its manner of articulation is fricative, which means it is produced by constricting air flow through a narrow channel at the place of articulation, causing turbulence.
Its place of articulation is glottal which means it is articuled by the vocal folds.

The voiceless glottal transition, commonly called a "fricative", is a type of sound used in some spoken languages which often behaves like a consonant, but sometimes behaves more like a vowel, or is indeterminate in its behavior.
The term glottal only refers to the nature of its phonation, and does not describe the location of the stricture nor the turbulence.
Sometimes, although is found, the phonation type is breathy voiced until the vocal folds are opened to the maximum, after which it becomes voiceless, e.g.

Voicing contrasts in fricatives are largely confined to Europe, Africa and Western Asia.
Overall, voicing contrasts in fricatives are much rarer than in plosives, being found only in about a third of the world's languages as compared to 60 percent for plosive voicing contrasts.
This phenomenon of unpaired voiced fricatives is scattered throughout the world, but is confined to nonsibilant fricatives with the exception of a couple of languages which have [ʒ] but lack [ʃ] (it is worth noting that several languages have the voiced affricate [dʒ] but lack [tʃ]).

The realization of a hisser requires a high degree of tension in the tongue: a groove is formed along the whole length of the tongue, in particular at the place of articulation where the air passes through a little round opening.
This symbol stands for both a fricative articulation and a spirant articulation, according to the degree of tension of the articulators.

 Glottal consonant Totally Explained
Glottal consonants are consonants articulated with the glottis.
Many phoneticians consider them, or at least the so-called fricatives, to be transitional states of the glottis without a point of articulation as other consonants have; in fact, some don't consider them to be consonants at all.
Because the glottis is necessarily closed for the glottal stop, it can't be voiced.

 Phonology
Similarly the IPA values should be regarded as indicative rather than definitive: for instance, anyone should be at liberty to pronounce a voiced alveolar "r" sound as /ɾ/ - a tap or flap, as /r/ - a trill, or as /ɹ/ - an approximant, so long as the word being uttered is recognisable.
This might tend to be rejected as unprecedented, but the "letter shape" is surely appropriate, and the voiceless uvular plosive [q] is right next to the voiced velar plosive [g] in any case.
Notable for their absence from the suggested Lang25 phonology are the common English phonemes /θ/ and /ð/ (/dh/ and /th/) the voiced and voiceless dental fricatives - as in "the" and "thin".
