Talk:Nasal voice

Latest comment: 5 years ago by Zeke, the Mad Horrorist in topic Examples?

Should I make a connection between the dysarthria page and this one? Also, cerebral palsy often results in a nasal voice due to the (already mentioned) velopharyngeal insufficiency. Cruise332 (talk) 16:10, 5 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Lead sentence

edit

The lead sentence currently is:

A nasal voice is a type of speaking voice characterized by speech with a "nasal" quality to it.

This is self-referential and thus not helpful. The first or second sentence should state just what it is that characterizes a "nasal quality"—is it something about the pitch, or the combination of pitches, or what? Loraof (talk) 17:49, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Examples?

Wouldn't it be helpful to have recordings of people speaking with "nasally" tones? I agree with the post above - there's really nothing in this article that actually explains what it is. Sound recordings would help at least demonstrate the topic. Zeke, the Mad Horrorist (Speak quickly) (Follow my trail) 23:09, 23 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
