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 voiceless dental plosive can be distinguished with the underbridge diacritic, t̪ and the postalveolar with a retraction line, t̠ , and the Extensions to the IPA have a ...
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.
Features of the voiceless labial–alveolar plosive are: 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 .

When spoken near a candle flame, the flame will flicker more after the words par, tar, and car are articulated, compared with spar, star, and scar .
Several symbols indicating secondary articulation have been dropped altogether, with the idea that they should be indicated with diacritics: ʮ for z̩ʷ is one. In addition, the rare voiceless implosive series ƥ ƭ 𝼉 ƈ ƙ ʠ has been dropped. Other characters have been added in for specific phonemes which do not possess a specific symbol ...
