The human voice is generated when interaction occurs between three key parts, the lungs, the vocal folds within the larynx or voice box and the articulator, the lungs provide the pump, they send air flow as well as control air pressure to the vocal folds which then vibrate creating audible pulses that form the laryngeal sound source. Pitch and tone are fine tuned by the muscles of the larynx which adjust in both length and tension. Finally, the articulator located above the larynx then interact with the laryngeal airflow to strengthen or weaken it. The articulator are composed of the tongue, palate, cheek and lips together. The vocal folds and articulator are able to create highly intricate arrays of sound. Humans can leverage this mechanism to convey complex emotions, suggesting happiness, fear, sadness, surprise, anger, and more.
