The voiceless palatal plosive or stop is a type of consonantal sound used in some vocal languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is c , and the equivalent X-SAMPA symbol is c .
The term "palatal stop" is sometimes used imprecisely to refer to postalveolar affricates, which themselves come in numerous varieties, or to other acoustically similar sounds, such as palatalized velar stops. The most common sound is the voiced nasal [ ɲ]. More generally, several kinds are distinguished: [c], voiceless palatal 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 voiceless, which means it is produced without vibrations of the vocal cords. It is an oral consonant, which means air is allowed to escape through the mouth only.
The attested voiceless implosive stops are: voiceless bilabial implosive [ɓ̥] or [ƥ] voiceless alveolar implosive [ɗ̥ ] or [ƭ] voiceless retroflex implosive [ᶑ̥ ] or [𝼉] voiceless palatal implosive [ʄ̥ ] or [ƈ ] voiceless velar implosive [ɠ̊ ] or [ƙ] (may be paraphonemic in English) voiceless uvular implosive [ʛ̥ ] or [ʠ ]
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 . The equivalent X-SAMPA symbol is J\.
The voiceless alveolo-palatal sibilant affricate is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages.The symbols in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represent this sound are t͡ɕ , t͜ɕ , c͡ɕ and c͜ɕ , and the equivalent X-SAMPA symbols are t_s\ and c_s\, though transcribing the stop component with c (c in X-SAMPA) is rare.
In phonetics, a plosive, also known as an occlusive or simply a stop, is a pulmonic consonant in which the vocal tract is blocked so that all airflow ceases. The occlusion may be made with the tongue tip or blade ( [ t ] , [ d ] ), tongue body ( [ k ] , [ ɡ ] ), lips ( [ p ] , [ b ] ), or glottis ( [ ʔ ] ).
In producing an ejective, the stylohyoid muscle and digastric muscle contract, causing the hyoid bone and the connected glottis to rise, and the forward articulation (at the velum in the case of [kʼ]) is held, raising air pressure greatly in the mouth so when the oral articulators separate, there is a dramatic burst of air.
