We developed a classification scheme for laryngealizations that can be used to discriminate the many different shapes of laryngealizations with different feature values. Potential applications are phonetic transcription and automatic detection. The scheme was developed and tested with a database from 4 speakers that contains more than 1200 laryngealizations.
