  2. 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 ...

  3. Glottal stop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glottal_stop

    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 glottal, which means it is articulated at and by the vocal cords (vocal folds). It has no phonation at all, as there is no airflow through the glottis. [2]

  4. Voiced velar plosive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_velar_plosive

    The voiced velar plosive or stop is a type of consonantal sound used in many spoken languages. Some languages have the voiced pre-velar plosive , [ 1 ] which is articulated slightly more front compared with the place of articulation of the prototypical velar plosive, though not as front as the prototypical palatal plosive .

  5. Voiced upper-pharyngeal plosive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Voiced_upper-pharyngeal_plosive

    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 upper pharyngeal , which means it is articulated with the tongue root against the back of the throat (the pharynx ) and then retracting the root of the tongue to the mid to high part of the pharynx.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. Voiced palatal plosive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_palatal_plosive

    The voiced palatal plosive or stop is a type of consonantal sound in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ɟ , a barred dotless j that was initially created by turning the type for a lowercase letter f .

  9. Bilabial ejective stop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilabial_ejective_stop

    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 bilabial, which means it is articulated with both lips. It is an oral consonant, which means air is allowed to escape through the mouth only.
