Arthria
Definition
The normal physiological capacity to articulate speech sounds clearly, distinctly, and correctly through the coordination of the vocal apparatus organs (tongue, lips, palate, vocal cords). In speech therapy and phonetics, the term represents the opposite of anarthria or dysarthria, defining the structural correctness of the mechanical word pronunciation process.
