2. (Phon.) Sound of the kind or quality heard in speech or

sonant, or intonated, utterance; tone; -- distinguished

[1913 Webster]

Note: Voice, in this sense, is produced by vibration of the
so-called vocal cords in the larynx (see Illust. of
Larynx) which act upon the air, not in the manner of
the strings of a stringed instrument, but as a pair of
membranous tongues, or reeds, which, being continually
forced apart by the outgoing current of breath, and
continually brought together again by their own
elasticity and muscular tension, break the breath
current into a series of puffs, or pulses, sufficiently
rapid to cause the sensation of tone. The power, or
loudness, of such a tone depends on the force of the
separate pulses, and this is determined by the pressure
of the expired air, together with the resistance on the
part of the vocal cords which is continually overcome.
Its pitch depends on the number of aerial pulses within
a given time, that is, on the rapidity of their
succession. See Guide to Pronunciation, [sect][sect] 5,
146, 155.

Note: Voice, in this sense, is produced by vibration of the
so-called vocal cords in the larynx (see Illust. of
Larynx) which act upon the air, not in the manner of
the strings of a stringed instrument, but as a pair of
membranous tongues, or reeds, which, being continually
forced apart by the outgoing current of breath, and
continually brought together again by their own
elasticity and muscular tension, break the breath
current into a series of puffs, or pulses, sufficiently
rapid to cause the sensation of tone. The power, or
loudness, of such a tone depends on the force of the
separate pulses, and this is determined by the pressure
of the expired air, together with the resistance on the
part of the vocal cords which is continually overcome.
Its pitch depends on the number of aerial pulses within
a given time, that is, on the rapidity of their
succession. See Guide to Pronunciation, [sect][sect] 5,
146, 155.

Note: Voice, in this sense, is produced by vibration of the
so-called vocal cords in the larynx (see Illust. of
Larynx) which act upon the air, not in the manner of
the strings of a stringed instrument, but as a pair of
membranous tongues, or reeds, which, being continually
forced apart by the outgoing current of breath, and
continually brought together again by their own
elasticity and muscular tension, break the breath
current into a series of puffs, or pulses, sufficiently
rapid to cause the sensation of tone. The power, or
loudness, of such a tone depends on the force of the
separate pulses, and this is determined by the pressure
of the expired air, together with the resistance on the
part of the vocal cords which is continually overcome.
Its pitch depends on the number of aerial pulses within
a given time, that is, on the rapidity of their
succession. See Guide to Pronunciation, [sect][sect] 5,
146, 155.
