Detailed explanation-1: -Speech resonance is the result of the transfer of sound produced by the vocal folds through the vocal tract comprised of the pharynx, oral cavity, and nasal cavity (Kummer, 2020a; Peterson-Falzone, Trost-Cardamone, Karnell, & Hardin-Jones, 2017).
Detailed explanation-2: -Resonance: Voice sound is amplified and modified by the vocal tract resonators (the throat, mouth cavity, and nasal passages). The resonators produce a person’s recognizable voice. Articulation: The vocal tract articulators (the tongue, soft palate, and lips) modify the voiced sound.
Detailed explanation-3: -The actual cross-sectional shape of the vocal tract varies greatly along its length even during the production of a neutral vowel, but these variations in shape have an almost negligible effect on resonance. Cross-sectional area at each point is, on the other hand, the main predictor of vocal tract resonance.
Detailed explanation-4: -The goal of resonant voice therapy is to achieve the strongest, “cleanest” possible voice with the least effort and impact between the vocal folds to minimize the likelihood of injury and maximize the likelihood of vocal health (Stemple et al., 2010).
