Using our vocal chords, we produce a vocal sound or noise which is then shaped into a specific vowel sound by the resonances of the pharyngeal, oral, and nasal cavities, that is, the vocal tract. Accordingly, the acoustic description of vowels relates to vowel-specific patterns of relative energy maxima in the sound spectra, known as patterns of formants. The intellectual and empirical reasoning presented in this treatise, however, gives rise to scepticism with respect to this understanding of the sound of the vowel. The reflections and materials presented provide reason to argue that, up to now, a comprehensible theory of the acoustics of the voice and of voiced speech sounds is lacking, and consequently, no satisfying understanding of vowels as an achievement and particular formal accomplishment of the voice exists. Thus, the question of the acoustics of the vowel?and with it the question of the acoustics of the voice itself?proves to be an unresolved fundamental problem. 606 $aPhonetics, Acoustic 606 $aVowels 615 0$aPhonetics, Acoustic. 615 0$aVowels. 676 $a414 700 $aMaurer$b Dieter$0893909 801 0$bPQKB 801 2$bAuAdUSA 801 2$bUkMaJRU 912 $a9910765851003321 996 $aAcoustics of the vowel$93648958 997 $aUNINA
