Compare and relate the components of the Double Helmholtz resonator (V1, V2, the constriction between V1 and V2, and the constriction leading from V2 to the atmosphere) to the traditional vowel quadrilateral.

• Hint: In the production of the different vowel sounds, the tongue-palate constriction can move forward (toward the lips) and backward (toward the pharynx) and can Increase it’s area (the channel can become narrower and wider). The constriction leading from the oral cavity to the atmosphere also can change length when producing some vowels.
