| | The Affricates |
 | | The phoneme sequences which the affricates most resemble are /th s/ and /d z/ which occur in the plural of nouns ending with <<b>bb>>alveolar<b>bb>> plosives, such as ``bats'' or ``pods.'' In the spectrogram these endings show up as a brief plosive burst passing immediately into frication. |  | | These phoneme sequences could be considered affricates; in English, however, they occur only in syllable-final position and are thus considered as allophones of a plosive plus a fricative. |  | | The plosive component is detectable as a single bar just to the side of the frication portion of the phoneme; sometimes, however, the plosion is very weak and the affricates can be confused with the fricatives. |

| | Nasal Sounds: a review of articulatory and acoustic properties |
 | | This problem can occur whenever there is a cleft palate and paralysis of the palatal musclature (Tiffany and Carrell, 1977). |  | | Nasalalized vowels are produced similarly to nasal consonants, except that the oral cavity is not completely blocked which results in air flowing freely through both the nasal and oral cavities. |  | | The acoustic attributes of nasal sounds are distinct from those of other sounds by their stable concentration of energy in the lower frequency regions, the presence of a first formant at around 300 Hz, and little energy in the areas around 600 Hz due to the presence of an antiformant. |

| | Describing consonants |
 | | In an <<b>bb>>alveolar<b>bb>> consonant, the tongue tip (or less often the tongue blade) approaches or touches the <<b>bb>>alveolar<b>bb>> ridge, the ridge immediately behind the upper teeth. |  | | Which consonant you're pronouncing depends on where in the vocal tract the constriction is and how narrow it is. It also depends on a few other things, such as whether the vocal folds are vibrating and whether air is flowing through the nose. |  | | This does not mean that it is physically impossible to say a sound that is exactly like, for example, an [n] except without vocal fold vibration. |

| | Describing consonants |
 | | In an <<b>bb>>alveolar<b>bb>> consonant, the tongue tip (or less often the tongue blade) approaches or touches the <<b>bb>>alveolar<b>bb>> ridge, the ridge immediately behind the upper teeth. |  | | In a fricative consonant, the articulators involved in the constriction approach get close enough to each other to create a turbluent airstream. |  | | The other is a velar approximant: the tongue body approaches the soft palate, but does not get even as close as it does in an [x]. |
