  2. Voiced dental, alveolar and postalveolar lateral approximants

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_dental,_alveolar...

    Velarization and pharyngealization are generally associated with more dental articulations of coronal consonants, so dark l tends to be dental or denti-alveolar. Clear (non-velarized) l tends to be retracted to an alveolar position. [54] The term dark l is often synonymous with hard l, especially in Slavic languages. (Cf. Hard consonants)

    The symbol [ɬ] is called "belted l" and is distinct from "l with tilde", [ɫ], which transcribes a different sound – the velarized (or pharynɡealized) alveolar lateral approximant, often called "dark L". [1] Some scholars also posit the voiceless alveolar lateral approximant distinct from the fricative. [2]

  4. Lateral consonant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_consonant

    An example of a lateral consonant is the English L, as in Larry. Lateral consonants contrast with central consonants , in which the airstream flows through the center of the mouth. For the most common laterals, the tip of the tongue makes contact with the upper teeth (see dental consonant ) or the upper gum (see alveolar consonant ), but there ...

  5. Velarization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velarization

    A common example of a velarized consonant is the velarized alveolar lateral approximant (or "dark L"). In some accents of English, such as Received Pronunciation and arguably General American English, the phoneme /l/ has "dark" and "light" allophones: the "dark", velarized allophone [ɫ] appears in syllable coda position (e.g. in full), while the "light", non-velarized allophone [l] appears in ...

  6. Voiced velar lateral approximant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_velar_lateral...

    The voiced velar lateral approximant is a type of consonantal sound, used as a distinct consonant in a very small number [1] of spoken languages in the world. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ʟ , a small capital version of the Latin letter l (since 1989), and the equivalent X-SAMPA symbol is L\.

  7. Secondary articulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_articulation

    Velarization is the raising of the back of the tongue toward the velum, as in the English "dark" L, [lˠ]. Pharyngealization is a constriction in the throat (pharynx) and is found in the Arabic "emphatic" consonants such as [sˤ]. Glottalization involves action of the glottis in addition to the primary articulation of the consonant.
