which of the following could be symptoms of cleft palate/smcp?
nasal emissions
lateral /s/
frontal tongue thrust
weak pressure consonants
backing
glottal stopping
hyponasality

Explanation:

• Nasal emissions occur due to improper closure of the velopharyngeal port in cleft palate/SMCP.
• Weak pressure consonants result from insufficient oral pressure, which is common in these conditions.
• Backing is a compensatory articulation pattern seen in cleft palate/SMCP.
• Glottal stopping can be a compensatory mechanism.
• Hypernasality is a hallmark symptom due to the lack of proper velopharyngeal closure.

Answer:

nasal emissions, weak pressure consonants, backing, glottal stopping, hypernasality
