Aspiration is when something enters the airway or lungs by accident. It may be food, liquid, or some other material. This can cause serious health problems, such as pneumonia. Aspiration can happen when a person has trouble swallowing normally.

Answer:
This happens when food particles enter thewindpipe. The windpipe carries air from the nostrils to the lungs. During the act ofswallowing a flap-like valve closes the passage of the windpipe and guides thefood into the foodpipe. If, by chance, food particles enter the windpipe, we feelchoked, get hiccups or cough.
