    In phonetics and phonology , a uvular stop is a type of consonantal sound, made with the back of the tongue in contact the uvula , which hangs down in front of the throat hence uvular consonant uvular , held tightly enough to block the passage of air hence a stop consonant . Uvular stops are acoustically similar to but less common than the velar stop s e.g. IPA k and IPA , and do not occur in English. Uvular stops are common in certain parts of the world, e.g. the Caucasian languages and the Pacific Northwest languages of North America . However, they are unattested in the European languages outside of a few peripheral areas such as the Caucasus . The most common sound is the voiceless plosive IPA q . This sound is well known in Arabic language Arabic , and occurs at least in Standard Arabic in words such as Quran Koran , Qatar , al Qaeda , and al Qahira the Arabic form of the city of Cairo .

  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 .

  1. Trill consonant

    Manner of articulation In phonetics , a trill is a consonant al sound produced by vibrations between the articulator and the place of articulation . Standard Spanish < rr digraph rr > as in perro , for example is an alveolar trill . Trills are very different from flap consonant flaps . Whereas with a flap or tap , a specific gesture is used to strike the active articulator against the passive one, in the case of a trill the articulator is held in place, where the airstream causes it to vibrate. Usually a trill vibrates for 2 3 periods , but may be up to 5, or even more if geminate consonant geminate . However, trills may also be produced with only a single period. While this might seem like a flap, the articulation is different trills will vary in the number of periods, but flaps do not. Trill consonants included in the International Phonetic Alphabet IPA r alveolar trill coronal trill IPA bilabial trill IPA uvular trill The bilabial trill is uncommon.

  1. Emphatic consonant

    Wiktionary emphatic Emphatic consonant is a term widely used in Semitic languages Semitic linguistics to describe one of a series of obstruent consonant s which originally contrasted with series of both voiced and voiceless obstruent s. In specific Semitic languages , the members of this series may be realized as pharyngealized , velarized , ejective , or plain voiced or voiceless consonant s. It is also used, to a lesser extent, to describe cognate series in other Afro Asiatic languages , where they are typically realized as either ejective or implosive consonant s. In Semitic studies , they are commonly transcribed using the convention of placing a dot under the closest plain obstruent consonant in the Latin alphabet . With respect to particular Semitic and Afro Asiatic languages , this term has come to be used more specifically to describe the particular phonetic feature which distinguishes these consonants from other consonants. Thus, in Arabic emphasis is synonymous with a secondary articulation involving retraction of the dorsum or root of the tongue, which has variously been described as velarization or pharyngealization depending on where the locus of the retraction is assumed to be. Within Arabic, the emphatic consonants have been reported as varying in phonetic realization from dialect to dialect, but are typically realized as pharyngealized consonants. In Ethiopian and Modern South Arabian languages, they are realized as ejective consonants. While these sounds do not necessarily share any particular phonetic properties in common, most historically derive from a common source.

  1. Flap consonant

    . A palatal consonant palatal or uvular consonant uvular flap, which unlike a velar flap is believed ...Manner of articulation In phonetics , a flap or tap is a type of consonant al sound, which is produced with a single contraction of the muscles so that one articulator such as the tongue is thrown against another. Contrast with plosives and trills The main difference between a flap and a plosive is that in a flap, there is no buildup of air pressure behind the place of articulation , and consequently no release phonetics release burst. Otherwise a flap is similar to a brief plosive. Flaps also contrast with Trill consonant trills , where the airstream causes the articulator to vibrate. Trills may be realized as a single contact, like a flap, but are variable, whereas a flap is limited to a single contact. Tap vs. flap Many linguists use the terms tap and flap indiscriminately. Peter Ladefoged proposed for a while that it might be useful to distinguish between them. However, his usage was inconsistent, contradicting itself even between different editions of the same text. ref Ladefoged, P. 1975, 1982, 1993 A Course in Phonetics .
