WHAT DOES PHONATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Phonation

The term phonation has slightly different meanings depending on the subfield of phonetics. Among some phoneticians, phonation is the process by which the vocal folds produce certain sounds through quasi-periodic vibration. This is the definition used among those who study laryngeal anatomy and physiology and speech production in general. Phoneticians in other subfields, such as linguistic phonetics, call this process voicing, and use the term phonation to refer to any oscillatory state of any part of the larynx that modifies the airstream, of which voicing is just one example. Voiceless and supra-glottal phonations are included under this definition.

Definition of phonation in the English dictionary

The definition of phonation in the dictionary is the articulation of speech sounds, esp vibrating the vocal cords in the execution of a voiced speech sound.
