| | L |
 | | Common digraphs include LL, which has a value identical to L in English but has the separate value voiceless alveolar lateral fricative in Welsh, where it can appear in an initial position. |  | | In English, L can have several values, depending on whether it occurs before or after a vowel. |  | | This velarization does not occur in many European languages that use L, and is also a factor making L difficult to pronounce for users of languages such as Japanese or Chinese that either lack or have different values for L. L can occur before almost any plosive, fricative, or affricate in English. |

| | Velarized alveolar lateral approximant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The velarized alveolar lateral approximant, which may actually be uvularized or pharyngealized, also known as dark el, is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages. |  | | In many accents of English, including Received Pronunciation, the velarized lateral alveolar approximant occurs in syllable coda position, as in bell and milk. |  | | In syllable onset position, however, the non-velarized or "plain" alveolar lateral approximant is found. |

| | Lateral consonant |
 | | English has a Lateral approximant phoneme, which in many accents has two allophones. |  | | Rarer Lateral consonants include the sound of Welsh ll, which is the voiceless alveolar Lateral fricative, and the retroflex laterals as can be found in Most Hindustani languages. |  | | The Italian gli and Spanish ll (in some accents) are the palatal Lateral approximant, which is present as well in these languages: Catalan ll, French ill- (in some dialects), Portuguese lh, Quechua ll. |

| | Phonetics and Phonology |
 | | Velum opening is optional for approximants except in languages where there is a phonemic distinction between nasalised and non-nasalised approximants. |  | | In other words the active articulator is moved towards the passive articulator but is prevented from moving so close that frication occurs. |  | | In Australian English the state of the velum is dependent upon phonetic context (open next to nasal stops, and closed next to oral stops, for example). |

| | 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. |
