phonolocation
-
Phonolocation is the use of laryngeal sounds to locate oneself in the world. Throat clearances and coughs signal one’s attentive presence, and any response indicates the likelihood of immediate contact with the responder.

The Science of Birdsong., vocal spectral analysis, vocalisationThe intention to vocalise is followed by contraction of the stapedius muscles, which reduces vibrations of the stapes (stirrup) bones, and thus the transmission of sound waves through the oval windows to the inner ears. The pitch, pace, pause and power of vocalisations qualify verbalisations. Comparisons can be made within sentences and between sentences, when…
