overformant

/ˌoʊvərˈfɔːrmənt/

Describing a sound or speech signal that possesses excessive or exaggerated resonant frequencies known as formants. In acoustics and phonetics, this term refers to an unnatural vocal quality where spectral peaks are over-emphasized, often occurring in synthetic speech.

याद रखने का तरीका

Think of the 'formant' as the 'form' or 'shape' of a sound wave. If the shape is 'over' (too much), it becomes 'overformant'—unnatural and too heavy in resonance.

त्वरित क्विज़

The engineer adjusted the equalizer because the synthesized vocal track sounded too _______, lacking the subtle nuances of a human voice.

overformant vs over-performant

Over-performant refers to a system performing better than expected, whereas overformant refers to excessive acoustic resonance.

overformant vs over-formal

Over-formal refers to behavior or language that is too stiff or official, unrelated to sound frequencies.

📝

इस्तेमाल की जानकारी

This is a highly specialized technical term used primarily in audio engineering, speech therapy, and linguistic research. Use it when describing the specific distortion or emphasis of vocal frequencies in digital or biological speech.

⚠️

सामान्य गलतियाँ

Learners often mistake this for a synonym of 'successful' (confusing it with performance) or 'stiff' (confusing it with formality).
