  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

    Geordie English often uses glottal stops for t, k, and p, and has a unique form of glottalization. Additionally, there is the glottal stop as a null onset for English; in other words, it is the non-phonemic glottal stop occurring before isolated or initial vowels. Often a glottal stop happens at the beginning of vowel phonation after a silence. [1]

  4. Voiceless palatal plosive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiceless_palatal_plosive

    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 .

  5. Voiceless dental and alveolar plosives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiceless_dental_and...

    Here are features of the voiceless alveolar stop: Its manner of articulation is occlusive, which means it is produced by obstructing airflow in the vocal tract. Since the consonant is also oral, with no nasal outlet, the airflow is blocked entirely, and the consonant is a plosive. There are three specific variants of [t]:

  6. 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.

  7. Palatal ejective stop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palatal_ejective_stop

    It is an oral consonant, which means air is allowed to escape through the mouth only. It is a central consonant, which means it is produced by directing the airstream along the center of the tongue, rather than to the sides. The airstream mechanism is ejective (glottalic egressive), which means the air is forced out by pumping the glottis upward.

  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 . The equivalent X-SAMPA symbol is J\.

  9. Epiglottal plosive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiglottal_plosive

    Epiglottal and pharyngeal consonants occur at the same place of articulation. Esling (2010) describes the sound covered by the term "epiglottal plosive" as an "active closure by the aryepiglottic pharyngeal stricture mechanism" – that is, a stop produced by the aryepiglottic folds within the pharynx.
