In articulatory phonetics, the place of articulation (also point of articulation) of a consonant is an approximate location along the vocal tract where its production occurs. [1]: 10 It is a point where a constriction is made between an active and a passive articulator. Active articulators are organs capable of voluntary movement which create ...
Its manner of articulation is affricate, which means it is produced by first stopping the airflow entirely, then allowing air flow through a constricted channel at the place of articulation, causing turbulence. Its place of articulation is palatal, which means it is articulated with the middle or back part of the tongue raised to the hard palate.
The point of maximum obstruction is called the place of articulation, and the way the obstruction forms and releases is the manner of articulation. For example, when making a p sound, the lips come together tightly, blocking the air momentarily and causing a buildup of air pressure .
The pulmonic consonant table, which includes most consonants, is arranged in rows that designate manner of articulation, meaning how the consonant is produced, and columns that designate place of articulation, meaning where in the vocal tract the consonant is produced. The main chart includes only consonants with a single place of articulation.

Its place of articulation is alveolo-palatal. This means that: Its place of articulation is postalveolar, meaning that the tongue contacts the roof of the mouth in the area behind the alveolar ridge (the gum line). Its tongue shape is laminal, meaning that it is the tongue blade that contacts the roof of the mouth.
In phonetics, a homorganic consonant (from homo-"same" and organ "(speech) organ") is a consonant sound that is articulated in the same place of articulation as another. For example, [ p ] , [ b ] and [ m ] are homorganic consonants of one another since they share the bilabial place of articulation.
