Hello and welcome to another Daily Dose of English.
Today's request comes from Belkada Adel in Algeria. He's sent me a voice request through the Daily Dose of English request form at Linguaspectrum.
"Hello Richard. I am Belkada Adel from Algeria and I'd like to ask you about the glottal stop. Could you help me in using it by giving me rules? Thank you, my dear teacher. Goodbye."
Now that's an interesting question. It's probably also left a lot of viewers scratching their heads asking themselves "What on earth is a glottal stop?"
It's probably best if I tell you what a glottal stop is before I tell you how to use it.
A glottal stop is also known as the voiceless glottal plosive and it's used in many languages besides English. In fact, you probably use it without being aware of it.
The phonetic symbol for the glottal stop is this.
The glottal stop is called the glottal stop because the sound is made when the vocal cords close and stop the flow of air. The gap between the vocal cords is called the glottis.
Now, that word plosive that I used a moment ago - voiceless glottal plosive - means an obstruction of the flow of air from the lungs to the mouth and nose - the vocal tract - caused by the closing of the vocal cords.
It is also a voiceless sound which doesn't mean that there is no sound but that the sound is not made with the vocal cords. In the case of the glottal stop, the vocal cords cannot make a sound because they are closed tightly together when the sound is made.
How can you tell if a sound is voiced or unvoiced? It's easy. Just plonk your fingers on the side of your neck like this. Make a sound like a buzzing bee. ZZZZZZZZZ. Feel a vibration? Good! That's a voiced sound.
Now say the sound SSSSSSS like a hissing snake. Feel a vibration in your throat? You didn't, did you? Good! That's a voiceless sound, though it's still part of your voice. You're just not using your vocal cords.
Now close your mouth and say UUUUUHHHHHH! That's voiced, too, but the sound is a nasal sound. That is, the air is only being released from your nose. Try making it with your mouth and nose blocked. You can't!
That's why we sound strange when we have a cold. All of the nasal sounds are removed from our voice and we sound as if we have a cold.
Now, the glottal stop is not a nasal sound. It is an oral consonant. This means that the air can only escape through the mouth and not the nose.
Right, that's the technical details out of the way. Now let's demonstrate some glottal stops.
Say the word cat. Cat.
Notice that the sound of the /t/ is clear and distinct. This is a /t/ sound not a glottal stop.
Many people say cat with a glottal stop. Cat with a glottal stop sounds like this...
Cat, cat, cat.
There, you can use a glottal stop.
Now try the word but. Without the glottal stop - but, but.
With the glottal stop - but.
Most people use the glottal stop without thinking about it, but this request also calls for some rules for the use of the glottal stop. Well, here goes...
In informal speech the /t/ sound is often replaced with the glottal stop when the /t/ sound is at the end of a syllable and the sound before the /t/ sound is a stressed vowel sound, or a syllabic /l/, /m/ and /n/ sound and the next syllable or word begins with a consonant sound.
It's pointless becomes it's pointless because a glottal stop replaces the /t/ sound after the syllabic /n/. So, point, pointless...
I'll get my coat becomes I'll get my coat when a glottal stop is used in place of the /t/ in both get and coat.
In words such as butter, where the /t/ sound is not only preceded but also followed by a vowel sound, many people consider the use of a glottal stop to be lazy speech.
You can't put a better bit of butter on your knife becomes You can't put a better bit of butter on your knife when glottal stops are liberally used in 'lazy' speech.
The most pronounced use of the glottal stop can be found in Cockney English where the glottal stop replaces the /p/, the /t/ and the /k/ sounds when they are preceded by a stressed vowel sound and are followed by an unstressed vowel sound.
For instance, water. The vowel sound before the /t/ is stressed - /ɔ:/ - but the vowel sound following it is not - /ə/. This means that in Cockney you can replace the /t/ sound with a glottal stop - water.
I hope you enjoyed this Daily Dose of English and I'll see you again soon for another one.
Goodbye for now.
If you are serious about improving your pronunciation, have an upper-intermediate level of English or above, and would like to understand why spoken English is so different from written English, take a look at my Advanced Pronunciation Course at Linguaspectrum.

~ Manner of Articulation ~
In linguistics, manner of articulation describes how the tongue, lips, jaw, and other speech organs are involved in making a sound.
According to the manner of articulation (how the breath is used) the consonants are: (i) Plosives, also known as Stops, (ii) Fricatives, (iii) Affricates, (iv) Nasals, (v) Laterals, and (vi) Approximants. Nasals, Laterals and Approximants are always 'voiced'; Stops, Fricatives and Affricates can be 'voiced' or 'unvoiced'.
Fricatives:
The flow of air is constricted, but not totally stopped or blocked. In English, these include /f/, /v/, /θ/, /ð/, /s/, /z/, /ʃ/, /ʒ/, and /h/.
~ Place of Articulation ~
In articulatory phonetics, the place of articulation (also point of articulation) of a consonant is the point of contact where an obstruction occurs in the vocal tract between an articulatory gesture, an active articulator (typically some part of the tongue), and a passive location (typically some part of the roof of the mouth).
According to the place of articulation (where in the mouth or throat the sound is produced) the consonants are: (i) Bilabial, (ii) Labiodental, (iii) Dental/Interdental, (iv) Alveolar, (v) Alveo-palatal (or post-alveolar), (vi) Palatal, (vii) Velar and (viii) Glottal (laryngeal).

Compare 6 English stop sounds with the glottal stop
Marsha Chan demonstrates the six English stop sounds: bilabial /b/ and /p/, linguadental /d/ and /t/, and velar /g/ and /k/. She contrasts the explosive characteristic of spoken English with the implosive characteristic of Vietnamese. She and Thuy demonstrate the glottal stop, which is very common in spoken Vietnamese but which is not a phonemic stop sound in English.

IPA for Language Learning - Consonants (2 of 4)
Learn to use the International Phonetic Alphabet to help you pronounce other languages. In this second lesson I introduce consonants and their features, including place of articulation, manner of articulation and voicing.
-- Some places of articulation --
bilabial: upper lips against lower lips
labiodental: upper teeth against lower lips
dental: tongue against upper teeth
alveolar: tongue against upper gums (alveolar ridge)
postalveolar: tongue on slope between gums and roof of mouth
palatal: tongue pointing towards roof of mouth (palate)
velar: back of tongue against soft palate (velum)
glottal: with vocal folds
-- Some manners of articulation --
nasal: airflow diverted through nose
stop (plosive): airflow momentarily cut off
fricative: restricted airflow
approximant: lightly restricted airflow
-- Voicing --
voiced: vocal folds opening & closing fast while pronouncing consonant
voiceless: vocal folds left open while pronouncing consonant

/zi:/ vs. /zɛd/
I talk about the pronunciation of the letter Z. Again, I don't think either pronunciation is wrong--I just think the difference is interesting.
Also, technically, all of the VC consonants start with a glottal stop (that kind of hiccupy sound at the beginning of "eye" or in the middle of "kitten" when spoken with an American accent), but I left this out to simplify it. A glottal stop is a consonant, but it was easier to talk about a VC form, as opposed to a ʔVC form.
If you have any questions, please ask!

Glottal Enterprises - CV mask
The unique, low distortion Circumferentially Vented (CV) Pneumotachograph Mask (http://bit.ly/AirflowMasks) was developed by Dr. Martin Rothenberg and is used around the world by researchers and clinicians in the fields of voice, speech and linguistics. The innovative CV design is now widely recognized as far superior in voice airflow measurement to older, closed-mask designs borrowed from the field of respiratory measurement.
The CV Mask may be used with a number of systems that measure the aerodynamics of voice, including Glottal Enterprises' Aeroview System (http://www.glottal.com/Products/aeroview.htm), Waveview System (http://www.glottal.com/Products/waveview.htm) and the Nasality Visualization System (http://www.glottal.com/Products/NVS.htm). Using the CV mask in conjunction with these systems results in a much lower distortion of speech and in higher fidelity airflow measurements in recordings of phonatory aerodynamics, consonant production and the physical correlates of nasality - nasal emission in consonants and vowel nasalance - in the treatment of persons with a cleft palate or a hearing impairment.
For more information about the Glottal Enterprises CV Masks and systems, please contact us by phone, fax or email.

According to the manner of articulation (how the breath is used) the consonants are: (i) Plosives, also known as Stops, (ii) Fricatives, (iii) Affricates, (iv) Nasals, (v) Laterals, and (vi) Approximants. Nasals, Laterals and Approximants are always 'voiced'; Stops, Fricatives and Affricates can be 'voiced' or 'unvoiced'.
Laterals:
Lateral consonants allow the air to escape at the sides of the tongue. In English there is only one such sound - /l/.
~ Place of Articulation ~
In articulatory phonetics, the place of articulation (also point of articulation) of a consonant is the point of contact where an obstruction occurs in the vocal tract between an articulatory gesture, an active articulator (typically some part of the tongue), and a passive location (typically some part of the roof of the mouth).

Tips on singing this song, My boys are singing this song to show how easy it is for children to sing the Polynesian vowels which is the hardest part of this seemingly very easy song.
The Ukulele bar chord chart used on this video can be found at the end of the video on this link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtgEVn2lmJo&feature;=relmfu
Aloha 'Oe by Queen Lili'uokalani of Hawaii, written in 1878. We are learning Pacific Island songs so that their ears are used to the sounds of the Polynesian language, since there is no one else here to hear the language being spoken.
One of the big problem for non Polynesian native speakers is to pronounce the vowels in Aloha 'oe. Here in Germany majority of the people that I've heard have a very hard time just saying the word 'OE with the two different vowel sounds O and E. Very offen they just leave the O out of 'OE.
It is possible that they are used to hearing their own German singers sing their own version with German text.
For native English speakers, it is the syllable "lo" in "Aloha" which most singers that I hear would tend to add "u" to it. This turns into a diphthong or with two vowel sounds and making the word sound like "Alouha".
Tip: try to keep the vowels pure as can be, and without diphthongs.
For Polynesians the vowel sounds of A-E-I-O-U has two different sounds for each vowel. The one with the glottal stop apostrophe in front of the letter 'A (like you hear in the word "alone").
Without the glottal stop sign for the letter A (like in the word "house" in English or "Haus" in German) except don't pronounce the consonant "h" and this would be the correct way without the other vowel sound of "U".
Another example for the A without the glottal stop is with the word "banana" without the consonants.
The vowels written for Polynesian speakers should be like this with glottal stops: ʻA, ʻE, ʻI, ʻO, ʻU, and without glottal stops, A,E,I,O,U.
If you are a Tongan native speaker than this is very easy for you visually when you read or speak it.
So if you are aware of this, than it's already a big help for you singing the song.
As more people from Hawaii begin to add this glottal signs into their language, singing their songs willl become easier for non native Polynesian speakers. There are free fonts for us Polynesians to use with our Mac or Microsoft computers from Hawaiian and Maori sites. Just google it.

Nasals, Laterals and Approximants are always 'voiced'; Stops, Fricatives and Affricates can be 'voiced' or 'unvoiced'.
Plosives / Stops:
During production of these sounds, the airflow from the lungs is completely blocked at some point, then released. In English, they are /p/, /b/, /t/, /d/, /k/, and /g/.
~ Place of Articulation ~
In articulatory phonetics, the place of articulation (also point of articulation) of a consonant is the point of contact where an obstruction occurs in the vocal tract between an articulatory gesture, an active articulator (typically some part of the tongue), and a passive location (typically some part of the roof of the mouth).
According to the place of articulation (where in the mouth or throat the sound is produced) the consonants are: (i) Bilabial, (ii) Labiodental, (iii) Dental/Interdental, (iv) Alveolar, (v) Alveo-palatal (or post-alveolar), (vi) Palatal, (vii) Velar and (viii) Glottal (laryngeal).

Approximants:
In the production of an approximant, one articulator is close to another, but the vocal tract is not narrowed to such an extent that a turbulent airstream is produced. In English, these are /j/, /w/ and /r/. Approximants /j/ and /w/ are also referred to as semi-vowels.
~ Place of Articulation ~
In articulatory phonetics, the place of articulation (also point of articulation) of a consonant is the point of contact where an obstruction occurs in the vocal tract between an articulatory gesture, an active articulator (typically some part of the tongue), and a passive location (typically some part of the roof of the mouth).
According to the place of articulation (where in the mouth or throat the sound is produced) the consonants are: (i) Bilabial, (ii) Labiodental, (iii) Dental/Interdental, (iv) Alveolar, (v) Alveo-palatal (or post-alveolar), (vi) Palatal, (vii) Velar and (viii) Glottal (laryngeal).
Palatal: hard palate, or 'roof' of the mouth'

Affricates:
These sounds begin like stops, with a complete blockage of air/closure of the vocal tract, and end with a restricted flow of air like fricatives. English has two affricates - /tʃ/ and /dʒ/.
~ Place of Articulation ~
In articulatory phonetics, the place of articulation (also point of articulation) of a consonant is the point of contact where an obstruction occurs in the vocal tract between an articulatory gesture, an active articulator (typically some part of the tongue), and a passive location (typically some part of the roof of the mouth).
According to the place of articulation (where in the mouth or throat the sound is produced) the consonants are: (i) Bilabial, (ii) Labiodental, (iii) Dental/Interdental, (iv) Alveolar, (v) Alveo-palatal (or post-alveolar), (vi) Palatal, (vii) Velar and (viii) Glottal (laryngeal).
Alveo-palatal (or post-alveolar): it is the area between the alveolar ridge and the hard palate
