 | | In the latter example, the coronal obstruent is an inflectional suffix; there are no examples of a velar nasal followed by a tautomorphemic coronal stop. | | | Furthermore, this article could also be used as a reference for phonologists working on nasal consonant systems in other languages. | | | In the examples in (2), the nasal is followed by a homorganic stop. |

| | If you considered only the data in Table (1), a generalization you might make is that AAVE has no velar nasal consonant, and that it always uses an alveolar nasal instead. | | | If your answer to Question 2 was 'no', then there must be some other reason why velar nasals are not found in the words in Table (1), but are in the words in Tables (2) and (3). | | | In this case, velar nasals can occur at the ends of words. |

| | The Phonosemantics of Nasal-Stop Clusters |
| | Actually, that phonetic development was pan-Germanic: all the modern Germanic languages acquired final velar nasals in the same way, and accordingly all the Germanic cognates of words like sing end with plain [N]. | | | Once this change was established, a prima facie case existed for the recognition of a third nasal phoneme, /N/" (I, 188). | | | My main source of information about the English velar nasal is J. Wells's Accents of English (1982). |

| | Velar nasal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The velar nasal is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages. | | | The symbol ŋ should not be confused with ɳ, the symbol for the retroflex nasal, which has a rightward-pointing hook extending from the bottom of the right stem or with ɲ, the symbol for the palatal nasal, which has a leftward-pointing hook extending from the bottom of the left stem. | | | It is a central consonant, which means it is produced by allowing the airstream to flow over the middle of the tongue, rather than the sides. |

| | This page contains phonetic information in IPA, which may not display correctly in some browsers. | | | Many languages also have labialized velars, such as [kʷ], in which the articulation is accompanied by rounding of the lips. | | | This distinction disappears with the approximant [w], since labialization involves adding of a labial approximant articulation to a sound, and this ambiguous situation is often called labiovelar. |

| | VIEW ROA 670 |
| | An alternative proposal is that specific grammars may select coronal or velar as the default place (Harris 1984). | | | To cope with this unexpected behavior of nasal consonants, some linguists have proposed that coronal is the unmarked place in the syllable onset, but velar is the unmarked place in the coda (Trigo 1988). | | | Data from five different Spanish dialects support the view that coronal is the unmarked place even in the syllable coda, and that the tendency of implosive nasals to become velar is not a consequence of assigning them an unmarked place articulator but of reducing their degree of consonantality. |

| | There's some stray formant organization which might mislead some, but ignoring the F2-looking shaping, this is pretty standard sibilant. | | | So this is probably a nasal, although sometimes /l/s look like this, except in English they'd be dark/velarized and the F2 would definitely be lower. | | | The amplitude drop suggests a) a consonant and b) a nasal zero. |
