What actions? 1 nasal/naakwaali-naasika 2 stop/rok-band-viraam 3 fricative/gharsh-sangharshii-gharshaNaa-ashaant vaayu, 4 flap/uchhala-flap (we don't use the voiced bilabial multi-flap (trill) in language). There are two sources of sound in speech, voice and frication. Frication at glottis is called aspiration. Frication is ashaant vaayu - gharsh-sangharshii-gharshaNaa I will give six examples, are they similar with ashaant vaayu? The dhvani-srot is not voice from larynx, it is ashaant vaayu at place of constriction When flow is fixed but airway is constricted then ashaant vaayu occurs. A noise form the place which is not voice.
