Blowing a raspberry, strawberry or making a Bronx cheer, is to make a noise that may signify derision, real or feigned. It may also be used in childhood phonemic play either solely by the child or by adults towards a child to encourage imitation to the delight of both parties. It is made by placing the tongue between the lips and blowing to produce a sound similar to flatulence. In the terminology of phonetics, this sound can be described as an unvoiced linguolabial trill .〔Pike called it a "voiceless exolabio-lingual trill", with the tongue vibrating against a protruding lower lip. Pike, Kenneth L. (1943). ''Phonetics: A Critical Analysis of Phonetic Theory and a Technique for the Practical Description of Sounds.'' Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press.〕 It is never used in human language phonemically (e.g., to be used as a building block of words), but the sound is widely used across human cultures. The nomenclature varies by country. In the United States, ''Bronx cheer'' is sometimes used; otherwise, in the U.S. and in other anglophone countries, it is known as a raspberry, rasp, or razz – the origin of which is an instance of rhyming slang, in which the non-rhyming part of a rhyming phrase is used as a synonym. In this case, "raspberry tart" rhymes with "fart". It was first recorded in 1890. ==Etymology== Blowing a raspberry comes from the Cockney rhyming slang "raspberry tart" for "fart". Rhyming slang was particularly used in British comedy to refer to things that would be unacceptable to a polite audience. The term "Bronx cheer" is used sarcastically because it is not a cheer; it is used to show disapproval. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Blowing a raspberry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
