The dimensions which are explored include duration (distinguishing flaps and approximants), dynamic tongue movement (distinguishing <<<<<b>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>><<b>bb>>bb>bb>>b>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>>>retroflexb>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>><<b>bb>>bb>bb>>b>bb>>bb>bb>>><b>bb>b>bb>>bb>bb>>>>> and nonretro-flex), and constriction location/spectral shape (distinguishing [l] and the obscure liquid).
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.

 <<b>bb>>Approximantb>bb>> 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 <<b>bb>>approximantb>bb>> [ʍ] has traditionally been called a fricative.
Approximants are speech sounds that could be regarded as intermediate between vowels and typical consonants.

 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.
Syllables with syllabic consonants and no vowel are never stressed or counted when determining which syllables to stress (see Section 9).

 The Language Vorlin
The period cannot be used to indicate abbreviations or initials as it is in English.
In English, a relative clause must always occur after the noun which it modifies; approximately half of the world’s languages put relative clauses before the modified noun.
Most European languages use a comma to represent the decimal point, while English uses a period; and so we may find “pi” approximated as “3,14159” or “3.14159” depending on the language of the author.
