phonation

By contrast, the myoelastic-aerodynamic theory of phonation holds that complex interactions involving aerodynamic stresses cause purring in cats, particularly as these stresses are applied to the free surfaces of the cats' vocal folds.

It’s called ventricular fold phonation, and it means you vibrate the cartilage in your throat alongside your vocal cords.

My piece is built on all the sonic consequences of physical labor, how it bears on how you breathe, how breathing in a very labored way can produce phonation.

Having real-time data where you can look back and see gait and phonation — it's orders of magnitude more helpful in trying to find things that in real life make it better or worse.

I have examined the phonation of lions, tigers, leopards, cats, dogs, birds of many kinds, and the human voice in speech, music, and laughter.
