What's the difference between consonance and resonance?

Consonance


Definition:

  • (n.) Alt. of Consonancy

Example Sentences:

  • (18) The implant provided information about the amplitude envelope of the speech and the estimated frequency of the main spectral peak between 800 and 4000 Hz, which was useful for consonant recognition.

  • (20) Acoustic information about the place of articulation of a prevocalic nasal consonant is distributed over two distinct signal portions, the nasal murmur and the onset of the following vowel.

Resonance


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of resounding; the quality or state of being resonant.
  • (n.) A prolongation or increase of any sound, either by reflection, as in a cavern or apartment the walls of which are not distant enough to return a distinct echo, or by the production of vibrations in other bodies, as a sounding-board, or the bodies of musical instruments.

Example Sentences:
