A problem that plagues some of our quartet singers is the vocal issue of "singing through their nose." It is a quality we particularly don't wish to have in our quartet sound. For some, it isn't an easy task to eliminate, but for others a simple pinching of their nose solves the problem.
As soon as you pinch your nose your soft palate will lift, your throat opens up and the nasality disappears. For others the solution is to find their "head voice" and to make certain they are "singing in the mask" and not "singing in their nose." Remember, there shouldn't be any difference in your sound whether your nose is closed or open while singing.
As a voice teacher, one of the tricks I've used to help solve this problem is to remove all the singable consonants from a song and have the student pinch his or her nose with two fingers. Then, I'll have them sing a song like "Heart of My Heart," but substitute "bah, buh, bah, bah, bah, buh boo" for the words in the song. The proper focus of their sound should be the same with or without their nose being pinched. You can use a tape recorder to check yourself. If you notice a difference in the quality of your sound, then you probably still have some work to do in overcoming your nasality.
Another approach is to find your head voice. One way to do that is to sing an F or G above middle C on an "oo" vowel, then sing a descending scale downward through your passagio (break) to your chest voice. As you sing the descending scale, keep the tone free, supporting it with warm air. Whatever you do, don't allow the feeling of that properly forward placed tone to drop back into your throat.
I've found these techniques to be effective in almost every case of nasal singing I've encountered. So, if you have some nasality in your voice or if you know someone who does, see if these suggestions don't make a positive difference.

I had a friend with this issue. the best ideas that worked were 1) yawn and try to make a solid round sound; 2) growl and moan. Keep on doing it like every night until you're comfy with it and it'll start to come naturally to you

It means you have a nasal sound; air goes through your nose.
It's caused by the glottis at the back of your throat.
Look in the mirror, say "AH" you'll see it opening.
That's what you need to do when singing.

Imagine you have something hot in the back of your mouth. Your soft palate would lift and your tongue go down to get away from it. Then inhale.
