  1. Dorsal consonant

    Place of articulation Dorsal consonants are articulated with the mid body of the tongue the dorsum . They contrast with coronal consonant s articulated with the flexible front of the tongue, and radical consonant s articulated with the root of the tongue. Function The dorsum of the tongue can contact a broad region of the roof of the mouth, from the hard palate so called palatal consonant s , the flexible soft palate velum behind that velar consonant s , to the Palatine uvula uvula at the back of the mouth cavity uvular consonant s . These distinctions are not clear cut, and sometimes finer gradations such as pre palatal, pre velar, and post velar will be noted. Because the tip of the tongue can curl back to also contact the hard palate for retroflex consonant s, consonants produced by contact between the dorsum and the palate are sometimes called dorso palatal. In different languages The most common pronunciation of the English letter G as in the g arden or to g rab is dorsal, a voiced velar plosive . The pronunciation of the letters K, Q, and sometimes C as in the c ake or to c rawl is similarly dorsal, a voiceless velar plosive . Two English language English Approximant consonant approximant s, Y as in y ellow and W as in w hite, are also dorsal consonants, palatal and Labialisation labialised velar respectively. The German language German CH sound, found in Scottish English lo ch , is a dorsal Fricative consonant fricative .

Sometimes the lowering diacritic is used to specify that the manner is approximant IPA .

  1. Central consonant

    A central or medial consonant is a consonant sound that is produced when air flows across the center of the mouth over the tongue. The class contrasts with lateral consonant s, in which air flows over the sides of the tongue rather than down its center. Examples of central consonants are the voiced alveolar fricative the z in the English word zoo and the palatal approximant the y in the English word yes . Others are the central fricatives IPA s z x , the central approximants IPA j w , the trills IPA r , and the central flaps IPA . The term does not apply to nasal consonants such as IPA m n , as there is no possibility of lateral nasal airflow. No language releases oral stops such as IPA p b t d k to the side, though non labial stops such as IPA t d k may have a secondary lateral release phonetics lateral release . However, stop consonants are lumped in as central consonants. The labial fricatives IPA f v often perhaps usually have lateral airflow, as the lip blocks the airflow in the center, but nonetheless they are not considered lateral consonants because no language makes a distinction between the two. In some languages, the centrality of a consonant may be indeterminate. In Japanese, for example, there is a flap consonant that may be either central or lateral, typically central before a front vowel, as in ri IPA i , and lateral before a back vowel, as in ro IPA o . Transcribing the phoneme r as either IPA or IPA gives the false impression that it is one or the other, when the category does not apply.
