    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_consonant

    Although denti-alveolar consonants are often described as dental, it is the point of contact farthest to the back that is most relevant, defines the maximum acoustic space of resonance and gives a characteristic sound to a consonant. [5] In French, the contact that is farthest back is alveolar or sometimes slightly pre-alveolar.

  4. Alveolar consonant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alveolar_consonant

A few languages on Bougainville Island and around Puget Sound , such as Makah , lack nasals and therefore [n] but have [t] .

    True dental consonants are relatively uncommon. In the Romance, Dravidian, and Australian languages, n is often called "dental" in the literature. However, the rearmost contact, which gives a consonant its distinctive sound, is actually alveolar or denti-alveolar. The difference between the Romance languages and English is not so much where the ...

    The voiceless alveolar, dental and postalveolar plosives (or stops) are types of consonantal sounds used in almost all spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents voiceless dental , alveolar , and postalveolar plosives is t , and the equivalent X-SAMPA symbol is t .

    The voiced alveolar, dental and postalveolar plosives (or stops) are types of consonantal sounds used in many spoken languages.The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents voiced dental, alveolar, and postalveolar plosives is d (although the symbol d̪ can be used to distinguish the dental plosive, and d̠ the postalveolar), and the equivalent X-SAMPA symbol is d.

    The voiced alveolar trill is a type of consonantal sound used in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents dental, alveolar, and postalveolar trills is r , and the equivalent X-SAMPA symbol is r. It is commonly called the rolled R, rolling R, or trilled R.

  9. Voiced dental, alveolar and postalveolar lateral approximants

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

    It is an alveolar, denti-alveolar, or dental lateral approximant, with a secondary articulation of velarization or pharyngealization. The regular symbols in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represent this sound are lˠ (for a velarized lateral) and lˤ (for a pharyngealized lateral), though the dedicated letter ɫ , which covers both ...
