  2. Implosive consonant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implosive_consonant

    Implosives are most often voiced stops, occasionally voiceless stops. Individual tokens of glottalized sonorants (nasals, trills, laterals, etc.) may also be pronounced with a lowering of the glottis by some individuals, occasionally to the extent that they are noticeably implosive, but no language is known where implosion is a general ...

  3. Voiceless alveolar implosive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiceless_alveolar_implosive

    Features of the voiceless alveolar implosive: 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.

  4. Plosive - Wikipedia

    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 ...

    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 in the IPA. Those studying modern Chinese phonology have used ɿ to represent the sound of -i in Pinyin hanzi which has been variously described as [ɨ] , [ɹ̩ ...

    Features of the voiceless bilabial implosive: 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.

  7. Voiceless dental and alveolar plosives - Wikipedia

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

    The voiceless alveolar, dental and postalveolar plosives (or stops) are types of consonantal sounds used in almost all spoken languages. 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 .

  8. Ingressive sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ingressive_sound

    Glottal ingressive is the term generally applied to the implosive consonants, which actually use a mixed glottalic ingressive–pulmonic egressive airstream. True glottalic ingressives are quite rare and are called "voiceless implosives" or "reverse ejectives".

  9. Dental and alveolar ejective stops - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_and_alveolar...

    The alveolar and dental ejective stops are types of consonantal sounds, usually described as voiceless, that are pronounced with a glottalic egressive airstream. In the International Phonetic Alphabet , ejectives are indicated with a "modifier letter apostrophe" ʼ , [ 1 ] as in this article.
