In spite of the amplitude given to the fundamental, it is evident that this tone should be much more strongly repre- sented, for the reason so often repeated that this tone is heard to be the strongest of all and that the series of puffs from the glottis is the most energetic part of the vocal action. The glottal puffs may—as in this case—have a great degree of suddenness (p. 116). The sud- denness will show itself in the curve in the same v/ay as fric- tion. We would be quite justi- Fio. 138.—Component curves of figure 130. fled not simply in exaggerating the component found for the fundamental but also in changing its form.
