Best Answer

When you have something lodged in the larynx, you can not speak. The larynx is part of the respiratory tract and it is commonly called the voice box. It is also part of the tract that air moves in and out and a blockage there reduces air that can reach the larynx. The blockage can be bad enough to completely cut off any air.
