Vowel Vibrations and Vowel Production [PDF]
Nature, 1938 THE dark band in Fig. 1 is the reproduction of the speech track of a vowel (a in hatch) on a sound film. The serrated upper edge is the registration of the vibratory movement of the particles of air, that is, it is the curve of vibration. It is seen to consist of a series of portions—vibratory 'bits'—each of which begins strong and fades away to zero ...
