 | | He defines it as a technique of problem solving by approaching problems indirectly at diverse angles instead of concentrating on one approach at length. |  | | One well-known college play involving the lateral pass is the infamous "Band Play" in the Stanford-California game from 1982. |  | | The answer appears to be 25 feet deep, but we can generate some Lateral thinking ideas about what affects the size of the hole: A hole may need to be a certain size or shape so digging might stop early at a required depth. |

| | 5pSC11 An articulatory and perceptual study of Tamil liquids. |
 | | Additional perception data designed to clarify this picture will be presented. |  | | This paper presents electropalatography data from one speaker and perceptual data from five listeners exploring the articulatory and acoustic dimensions of the phonetic space for liquids in Tamil. |  | | However, unlike other segments in Tamil which require tongue tip backing (the retroflexes) there is no evidence of dynamic tongue movement during the closure and some suggestion of acoustic zeros, perhaps from a lateral opening. |

| | Retroflex consonant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Retroflex consonants are common in the Indo-Aryan languages and the Dravidian languages; and can also be found in languages such as Mandarin Chinese, Javanese, Vietnamese, Swedish, Norwegian and some languages of Southern Italy and Sardinia. |  | | In phonetics, retroflex consonants are consonant sounds used in some languages. |  | | Finally, the tongue may be curled back so that the underside touches the alveolar or pre-palatal region, as in many of the Dravidian languages. |

| | Approximant consonant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Although many languages have central vowels [ɨ, ʉ] which lie between back/velar [ɯ, u] and front/palatal [i, y], no language is known to have corresponding approximants. |  | | For example, the voiceless labialized velar approximant [ʍ] has traditionally been called a fricative. |  | | This page contains phonetic information in IPA, which may not display correctly in some browsers. |

| | Retroflex_lateral_flap Information, Facts, Resources |
 | | This document is being distributed under the GNU FDL |  | | The symbol for the alveolar lateral flap is combined with the tail of the retroflex consonants to create the ad hoc symbol for the retroflex lateral flap, <ɺ̢> (here created as a digraph, with a diacritic for the tail, since there is no Unicode value for this symbol). |  | | In the Tamil language the retroflex lateral approximant is often realized as a flap, but this is not contrastive. |

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

| | Svealand Swedish - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography |
 | | A major characteristic of Svealand Swedish is the coalescence of the phoneme /r/ with following dental and alveolar consonants — also over word-boundaries — that transforms them into retroflex consonants that in some cases reduces the distinction between words (as for instance bod — bord, i.e. |  | | This feature is also found in Oslo Norwegian and in some dialects of Scottish Gaelic. |  | | Svealand Swedish (in Swedish: Sveamål) is one of the major grouping of Swedish dialects, clearly distinguished from Finland-Swedish and the Swedish spoken in Southern Sweden. |
