    Examples Of Spoken Language

    The organs of speech and their work

    To produce sound people use their organ of speech and this process consists of a number of the successive steps. First of all the air stream realized by the lungs does through the windpipe and comes to the larynx, which contains the vocal cords. The vocal cords are two elastic folds (opening between them is called the glottis) which are either brought together and vibrate (in this case we hear vowels or voiced consonants) or kept apart (in this case there is no vibration and the voice is not heard).…
