velar |
the velum is the passive articulator |

|
voicing |
the presence or absence of vocal fold vibration |
|
manner of articulation |
the way in which the airstream is modified as a result of the interaction of the articulators |
|
stop-plosives |
defined by the complete blockage of the oral cavity |

aspiration |
the release of the air pressure that creates a puff of air |
|
fortis consonants |
Consonants that are stop plosives which have more intraoral pressure |
|
lenis consonants |
consonants that are stop plosives which have less intraoral pressure |
|
fricatives |
result when the active and passive articulators approximate each other so closely that the air is forced with considerable pressure through the constriction that formed |
