Speech sounds are made by the vibrations of air forced through the vocal chords, tongue and lips. For this reason languages can have distinct sounds depending on how the sounds are produced.

How is the speech sound produced?

Speech sounds are produced by air passing through the vocal cords in the larynx, causing them to vibrate and create a sound. This sound is then modified by the movement of the articulators (tongue, lips, teeth, etc.) in the vocal tract, which shape the sound into specific speech sounds. The resonating cavities in the vocal tract further modify the sound before it is finally emitted as speech.


What initial sound is made loud by the resonators into intelligible sounds such as tongue teeth lip soft and hard palate?

The initial sound made loud by the resonators is typically a voiced sound produced by the vocal cords, which resonates through the vocal tract. This resonance is shaped by the articulators, including the tongue, teeth, lips, and both the soft and hard palate, to create intelligible speech sounds. These articulators modify the airflow and sound waves, allowing for the production of distinct phonemes. In essence, they transform the basic vocal sound into recognizable speech.
