[edit] redirect
Unvoiced redirects here. The article should explain why!
[edit] voicing article
Voicing redirects here. Maybe there should be a separate voicing article? By voicing I mean the VOT, etc. of consonants.
Phonation is often mentioned with respect to vowels. But you can still discuss phonation independently from vowels or consonants...
Any other thoughts?

- Some would argue that the 'glottals' are just that: independent phonation, rather than actual consonants. kwami 10:55, 2005 July 17 (UTC)
it seems that there is no article for Voice Onset Time (a.k.a. VOT). although this is mentioned in Stop consonant, it is very very brief. - Ish ishwar 21:03, 2005 Mar 10 (UTC)

- ah, yes, good. re glottals: i would agree in many cases. there is nice book that i browsed once by Fujimura (i think). i may start a biblio for this article. by the way, i know this is so far linguistically oriented, but is there anything in Wikipedia on falsetto? i havent looked & i also dont know what this is physiologically. any takers? – ishwar (speak) 05:19, 2005 August 13 (UTC)
Found an interesting article that takes a broader look at phonation. However, it specifically excludes discussion of falsetto as not being relevant for normal language. Falsetto presumably involves more of the larynx than just the glottis, however.
[edit] definition
I moved the quoted definition to the intro paragraph, since my comments on the glottis are not appropriate to the expanded article. Can whoever added it give the reference? kwami 21:13, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] non-harmonic overtones?
Regarding the sentence: This produces a fundamental tone accompanied by several non-harmonic overtones. I'd like to know why the overtones are non-harmonic. My high school physics has trained me to expect the production of harmonics from a vibrating source, so I find the statement surprising or out of the ordinary. Especially because I've read elsewhere that the vocal cords produce a harmonic series.
[edit] Phonation/articulation
The two are not the same thing, but the interwiki links are a mix of articles about phonation and articulation, and the interwiki bots aren't making things easier. How do we fix it? • 辻斬り? 08:10, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
