 | | Ejective consonants are a class of consonants which may contrast with aspirated or unaspirated consonants in a language. |  | | They are often described as sounding like "spat" consonants, but ejectivity is often quite weak; in some contexts, and depending upon the language they appear in, they may even sound like unaspirated consonants. |  | | The vast majority of ejective consonants noted in the world's languages are plosives or affricates. |

 | | Flapping also occurs in other languages, such as Western Apache (and related languages). |  | | The cluster [nt] can also be flapped; the IPA symbol for a nasal flap is [ɾ̃], but articulatorily this is nothing more than an ultrashort [n]. |  | | However, flapping is blocked when /t/ is the initial consonant of a stem (in other words flapping occurs only when /t/ is stem-internal or in a prefix). |

| | Nasal consonant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In the case of some Kru languages, for example, nasal consonants only occur before nasal vowels. |  | | When this is claimed, as with several of the Western Kru languages of Liberia, or the Pirahã language of the Amazon, nasal and non-nasal consonants usually alternate allophonically, and it is only a theoretical claim on the part of the individual linguist that the nasal version is not the basic form of the consonant. |  | | However, several of the Chimakuan, Salish, and Wakashan languages surrounding Puget Sound, such as Quileute, Lushootseed, and Makah, are truly without any nasalization at all, in consonants or vowels, except in special speech registers such as baby-talk or the archaic speech of mythological figures (and perhaps not even that in the case of Quileute). |
