👉 Non-vocalness is a concept in linguistics and communication studies that refers to the absence of speech or vocalization in a language, especially in spoken languages. It can refer to the lack of sounds, syllables, or words being produced during speech, as well as the absence of any form of articulation, such as tone, intonation, or articulatory movements.
