|
~ If you remove the offglide you will still produce the same sound, just shorter
~ /____________________________/ |
|
|
Obstruent

Sounds share the same place of Articulation
|
|
|
Cognate
|
Phonemes differ only by voicing
(voiceless or voiced) |
|
|
Semi-Vowel
|
Refers to glides and liquids, together.

Made with build up of air pressure behind a complete closure in the vocal tract
~ velopharyngeal port is closed ~ Released as a burst. |
|
|
Nasal
|
Nasals are made with complete closure in the oral cavity with the velopharyngeal port open.
|
|
|
Fricatives
|
~ Made by forcing air through a narrow constriction in the vocal tract (velopharyngeal port is also closed)
|
