1. There are three principal airstream mechanisms. The one used in all of the world's languages is the pulmonic airstream mechanism. a. velaric b. click c. pulmonic d. none of the above 2. The airstream mechanism only used in some languages is called glottalic: a. plosive b. glottalic c. breathy d. all of the above 3. The airstream mechanism that occurs in less than 2% of the world languages is called ejective: a. ejective b. pulmonic c. velaric d. a & c 4. In normal utterances in all the languages of the world, the airstream is always flowing outward if the pulmonic airstream mechanism is involved. a. pulmonic b. laryngeal c. glottalic d. none of the above 5. Stops made with the pulmonic airstream mechanism are called plosives: a. plosives b. clicks c. ejectives d. a & c 6. The only mechanism that is used in some languages to produce some sounds with inward going air and some sounds with outward going air is the glottalic airstream mechanism. a. breathy b. glottalic c. pulmonic d. all of the above
