Word origin

From vocal + -ism.

Used in a sentence

  • The exciting vocalism of Leontyne Price
  • All forms contain a base *θirr- or *θurr-. Types 1 and 2 [which contain *θirr] may have been influenced by θirri̯are 'to screech', suggesting that the forms with *θurr- preserve the original vocalism.
