👉 The term "subpharyngeal" is a medical term used to describe the region of the pharynx (throat) that is located below the level of the vocal cords. This region contains the larynx, which is the part of the voice responsible for producing speech sounds and carrying them from the throat to the mouth. The subpharyngeal region plays a crucial role in the vocalization process by facilitating the transmission of vocal sounds from the throat to the mouth.
