Date: Fri, 23 Jan 1998 16:55:51 +0000 From: Duane Campbell Subject: Almost about dialect I have noticed that many 20-something females (my daughter included) have a voice that lodges high in the throat, producing a grating, nasal-sounding tone. In other generations the voice comes from around the clavical, trained voices lower still. Is the location of vocalization a part of dialect?
