  2. Voiced dental and alveolar implosives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_dental_and_alveolar...

    Since the consonant is also oral, with no nasal outlet, the airflow is blocked entirely, and the consonant is a plosive. Its place of articulation is alveolar, which means it is articulated with either the tip or the blade of the tongue at the alveolar ridge, termed respectively apical and laminal.

  3. Nasal click - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasal_click

    Nasal clicks are click consonants pronounced with nasal airflow.All click types (alveolar ǃ, dental ǀ, lateral ǁ, palatal ǂ, retroflex ‼, and labial ʘ) have nasal variants, and these are attested in four or five phonations: voiced, voiceless, aspirated, murmured (breathy voiced), and—in the analysis of Miller (2011)—glottalized.

  4. Plosive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plosive

    In addition, they restrict "plosive" for pulmonic consonants; "stops" in their usage include ejective and implosive consonants. [2] If a term such as "plosive" is used for oral non-affricated obstruents, and nasals are not called nasal stops, then a stop may mean the glottal stop; "plosive" may even mean non-glottal stop. In other cases ...

  5. Voiced dental and alveolar plosives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_dental_and_alveolar...

    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.

  6. Glottal stop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glottal_stop

    The glottal stop or glottal plosive is a type of consonantal sound used in many spoken languages, produced by obstructing airflow in the vocal tract or, more precisely, the glottis. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ʔ .

    It just isn't true. Perhaps you’ve heard the old wive’s tale about how cats will “steal a baby’s breath” or that a cat will suffocate a baby, covering its mouth in search of milk.

  8. Voiced palatal implosive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_palatal_implosive

    Since the consonant is also oral, with no nasal outlet, the airflow is blocked entirely, and the consonant is a plosive. 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. Its phonation is voiced, which means the vocal cords vibrate during the articulation.

  9. Voiced retroflex implosive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_retroflex_implosive

    The voiced retroflex implosive is a type of consonantal sound. Wadiyara Koli phonemically distinguishes it from the alveolar /ɗ/. Sindhi has an implosive that varies between dental and retroflex articulation, while Oromo, Saraiki and Ngad'a have /ᶑ / but not /ɗ/.
