In the discussion, participants explore the relationship between glottal width and stress in speech sounds. It is posited that during stressed sounds, the glottis is more open, while in unstressed sounds, it is narrower. The difficulty in perceiving unstressed sounds in English is highlighted, with a suggestion that the narrower glottis contributes to this challenge. Participants are encouraged to share their research findings on this topic, indicating a collaborative effort to understand the mechanics of glottal function in relation to stress and unstress in speech.
