I don't understand it much.

Here is what I understood

-voiced stop: your vocal cord vibrates before you release the air

-voiceless unaspirated stop: your vocal cord vibrates right at the time you release the air

-voiceless aspirated stop: your vocal cord vibrates after the time you release the air

Could you explain it using simple easy-to-understand language?
