cant for the life of me remember!Health Question & Answer
Answers:
It is an Uvula, heres some general information on them for you, The uvula plays a key role in the articulation of the sound of the human voice to form the sounds of speech.[2] It functions in tandem with the back of the throat, the palate, and air coming up from the lungs to create a number of guttural and other sounds. Consonants pronounced with the uvula are not found in English; however, languages such as Arabic, French, German, Hebrew, Ubykh, and Hmong use uvular consonants to varying degrees. Certain African languages use the uvula to produce click consonants as well. In English (as well as many other languages), it closes to prevent air escaping through the nose when making some sounds.Health Question & Answer
