Voicing: pronouncing a sound (usually a vowel or a voiced consonant) by vibrating the vocal cords.浊音：发音（通常是一个元音或一个发声辅音）时声带振动。21. Broad and narrow transcription: the use of a simple set of symbols in transcription is called broad transcription;the use of a simple set of symbols in transcription is called broad transcription;while,the use of more specific symbols to show more phonetic detail is referred to as narrow transcription.宽式音标：使用一套简单的符号记音。严式音标：使用复杂的符号来精确地表示语音。22. Consonant: are sound segments produced by constricting压缩 or obstructing阻碍 the vocal tract声道 at some place to divert,impede阻碍,or completely shut off the flow of air in the oral cavity口腔.辅音：声道的某些部位受到压缩或阻碍后，使得气流在口腔里转向，受阻，或完全被阻挡，由此产生辅音。23.
