The phonemes /b, d, ɡ/ have weakened non-plosive pronunciations that can be broadly transcribed as voiced fricatives [β, ð, ɣ], although they may be realized instead as voiced approximants [β̞, ð̞~ɹ, ɣ̞~ɰ]. [41] [42] There is no context where the non-plosive pronunciations are consistently used, but they occur most often between vowels:
The voiced postalveolar or palato-alveolar fricative is a type of consonantal sound used in some spoken languages.The International Phonetic Association uses the term voiced postalveolar fricative only for the sound [ʒ], [1] but it also describes the voiced postalveolar non-sibilant fricative [ɹ̠˔], for which there are significant perceptual differences, as one is a sibilant and one is not.
The voiced velar fricative is a type of consonantal sound that is used in various spoken languages. It is not found in most varieties of Modern English but existed in Old English . [ 1 ] The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ɣ , a Latinized variant of the Greek letter gamma , γ , which has this sound ...
The voiced pharyngeal approximant or fricative is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ʕ , and the equivalent X-SAMPA symbol is ?\ .
alveolo-palatal sibilant fricatives [ɕ, ʑ]. Features of the voiced alveolo-palatal fricative: Its manner of articulation is sibilant fricative, which means it is generally produced by channeling air flow along a groove in the back of the tongue up to the place of articulation, at which point it is focused against the sharp edge of the nearly clenched teeth, causing high-frequency turbulence.
Alveolo-palatal fricatives are a class of consonants in some oral languages. The consonants are sibilants, a variety of fricative. Their place of articulation is postalveolar. They differ in voicing. The voiceless alveolo-palatal fricative and voiced alveolo-palatal fricative are written ɕ and ʑ in the International Phonetic Alphabet.
The voiced bilabial fricative is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is β , and the equivalent X-SAMPA symbol is B. The official symbol β is the Greek letter beta.
