Humans can speak with almost perfect intelligibility without vibrating the vocal chords: it's called whispering. There are important great languages, such as Mandarin Chinese, which don't even distinguish between voiced and unvoiced consonants. That's why in Pinyin pairs like p/b, k/g and t/d (which represent a distinction of voiceless vs. voiced in European languages) have been repurposed to represent a distinction of aspiration -- p is /pʰ/ while b is plain /p/ etc. | |
