 Lateral consonant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Such symbols are rare, but are becoming more common now that font-editing software has become accessible.
Rarer lateral consonants include the retroflex laterals that can be found in most Indic languages; and the sound of Welsh ll, the voiceless alveolar lateral fricative [&;] that is also found in Zulu and many Native American languages.
English has a lateral approximant phoneme /l/, which in many accents has two allophones.

 Phonetics and Phonology
This process is analogous to the effect of stop aspiration on following approximants.
Alveolar assimilation is extremely common, but exceptions to these rules do occur, even in casual connected speech.
This has simplified the symbolic representation of this phoneme which can be realised in a number of different ways in various English dialects (alveolar, post-alveolar and retroflex approximants are the most common, but alveolar trills and taps as well as uvular trills also occur in some dialects).

 Alveolar lateral approximant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This page contains phonetic information in IPA, which may not display correctly in some browsers.
The alveolar lateral approximant is a type of consonantal sound used in some spoken languages.
The airstream mechanism is pulmonic egressive, which means it is articulated by pushing air out of the lungs and through the vocal tract, rather than from the glottis or the mouth.

 Lojban Reference Grammar: Chapter 3
An example is ``rl.'', which is an approximation of the English name ``Earl'', and has two syllabic consonants.
Thus Lojbanized names, which are generally required to end in a consonant, are allowed to end with a syllabic consonant.
(Approximate English equivalents of most of these diphthongs exist: see Section 11 for examples.)

Esperanto writes this as a s-circumflex combination (often ASCIIfied as s^), but 'sh' is also in common use.
This is the alveolar affricate that begins "tsar".

In all other dialects it is a separate phoneme, although it only occurs in syllable codas.
In some Irish varieties, /θ/ and /ð/ become the corresponding dental plosives, which then contrast with the usual alveolar plosives.

 How do you pronounce your L's? Antimoon Forum
So at least the vocalized l should be easy to distinguish: if the tip of your tongue doesn't touch the alveolar ridge when you say these words for example: hell, nelly, lap, girl..
- The standard British pronunciation is alveolar at the beginning of syllables and velar at the end - in the word "loll", the first L is alveolar and the second one is velar.
I think my normal /l/ may be slightly velarized in some cases but I still mark it as [l], while using [5] for the appropriate "dark" context because there is a clear contrast there, [5] being much more velarized--definitely not the same as [l], even if the latter has some degree of velarization going on.

The International Phonetic Alphabet has a full set of different symbols which can be used whenever more phonetic accuracy is required (e.g.
Alveolar or retroflex approximant, as in most accents of English (with minute differences): The front part of the tongue approaches the upper gum, or the tongue-tip is curled back towards the roof of the mouth ("retroflexion").
Uvular or velar approximant or fricative: The back of the tongue approaches the soft palate or the uvula.

It is also worthy of note: comical substitution of the palato-alveolar approximant 'American r' with its close alveolar counterpart 'l' is largely a phenomenon of two Altaic languages, Japanese and Korean, and even then varies.
I wish to preempt its attribution to me. Appending a novelly ironic vocative clause, was, however, my innovation.
For instance, the proprietor of Teppan restaurant does this.
