TL;DR: It seems reasonable to consider, at least for Korean stops, that the laryngeal articulatory adjustment is not limited in a simple dimension of adduction-abduction of the vocal folds, but another dimension, represented by VOC activity for example, also must be taken into consideration.

TL;DR: In this paper, EMG recordings of the levator palatini were obtained to investigate the relationship between velar movement and its motor command and found that anticipatory nasal coarticulation generally followed the look-ahead mechanism, although in some examples there seemed to be a restriction of the anticipatory effect.

TL;DR: The role of the larynx in the production of voiced and voiceless stops and fricative consonants is discussed in this article. But the evidence is negative so far as providing support for a view that this latter feature plays a significant role in the voicing distinction.

TL;DR: The traditional division of Swedish long rounded vowels into two groups, one containing [y:] and [o:] and the other containing [ω]- and [u]- was confirmed, on the basis of electromyographic measurements of the output of several locations in the facial muscles as mentioned in this paper.
