| | The Elision of /k/ in <nk# C> Context |
 | | A further 31 phrases had to be taken out of the experiment because in these phrases the initial consonant following a final /k/ was a <b>plosiveb> or /ð/ (which is usually pronounced as a lax dental <b>plosiveb> rather than as a fricative). | | | Sometimes the first <b>plosiveb> is simply replaced by a glottal stop, but quite often both plosives are audible in speech. | | | It could well be the case that /k/ is hardly ever elided in this environment, but there might be instances where this elision does not result in an unacceptable pronunciation. |

| | Is the Syllabics orthography an Abugida? |
| | In Cree, for example, the unvoiced labial <b>plosiveb> consonant /p/ is indicated by an chevron shape: "ᐱ". | | | Abugida is a term coined by Peter T. Daniels for a script whose basic signs denote consonants with an inherent vowel and where consistent modifications of the basic sign indicate other following vowels than the inherent one. | | | In most languages, there are also consonant characters which do not belong to a series of syllabics. |

| | Polish language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Palatal consonants (known to Poles as "soft" consonants) are marked either by an acute accent or followed by an i. | | | The consonants w and rz are normally voiced, but if a consonant cluster ends with w or rz and the last but one consonant is normally voiceless, then the whole consonant cluster is voiceless. | | | Polish is often said to be one of the most difficult languages for non-native speakers to learn; of course, this depends on one's native language. |

| | How to make the sounds in Wolof - Consonants |
| | When it occurs at the end of a word preceded by a vowel it is unreleased and often voiceless ([k]), or may be produced as an implosive. | | | It does not occur as a single consonant at the end of a word, but note that j in final position preceded by a vowel is usually voiceless (i.e [c]). | | | A prenasalised sound begins as a nasal with the air stream escaping through the nose, but the velum rises to close the velic passage just as the articulation in the mouth begins, so that there is effectively a very short nasal onset to the oral sound. |

| | A stop or <b>plosiveb> or occlusive is a consonant sound produced by stopping the airflow in the vocal tract. | | | Other linguists consider the nasal consonants not to be stops because they are continuants and call them simply nasals, as opposed to stops. | | | Some linguists consider nasal consonants to be nasal stops, which are differentiated from the oral stop only by the lowered velum that allows the air to escape through the nose during the production of the nasal stop. |

| | In the International Phonetic Alphabet, implosives are indicated by writing a <b>plosiveb> consonant with a hook top. | | | This is the opposite pattern to the ejective consonants, where it is the velar articulation that is most common, and the bilabial that is rare. | | | Fully voiced plosives are often slightly implosive, although this is not always described explicitly, as there is no contrast with modal-voiced plosives in such languages. |

| | This holds for C = stop and to some extent for C = fricative — that is, when the consonant is a <b>plosiveb> and often when the consonant is a fricative. | | | Notice although there are two pairs of <b>plosiveb> (two for English and two for French) these are in fact realised as only three different signals: the waveform in the French voiceless instance is the same as that for the English voiced instance. | | | You will notice that for the phonological sequence of [–voice] consonant followed by a vowel in English the VOT is between around 20–50 ms; for [+voice] followed by vowel sequences the VOT is between –2 and +2 ms approximately. |
