  The tongue may be small, and the limited movement of the soft palate may cause nasal speech. Often there is an H- or Y-shaped dimpling of the skin over the chin.[citation needed] Cause[edit] FSS is caused by genetic changes. [en.wikipedia.org]

  In addition, affected children may have a nasal quality to their voice (nasal speech) due to limited movement of the soft palate. [rarediseases.org]
