Definición y Significado de "glottal"

What is "glottal"?

Glottal refers to sounds produced using the glottis, which is the space between the vocal cords in the larynx. Glottal sounds are characterized by the use of breath control and vocal cord manipulation. An example of a glottal sound in English is the glottal stop, often represented by the sound in the middle of "uh-oh" or the break in "button." In some dialects, it can replace the "t" sound in "butter." Glottal sounds play an important role in phonetics and contribute to the variety of sounds in different languages and dialects.
