Phonetique - oh yes, and

answer the timeless question: A quoi sert la luette?

This could be variously translated as

"What good is the uvula?" or "What use is the uvula?" or "What does the uvula do?"

and the answer, of course, is that it opens to make a nasal vowel.

It probably has a function in snoring, too, but I decided that was probably off the point.
