		A slight movement of the upper lip in the direction of the lower one is noticed when he is making a velarised labio-dental, although the friction is visibly the result of the closeness of the lower lip to the upper teeth.
		Both labio-dental and bilabial friction are common in certain positions such as (i) before o, (ii) preceded by i: and followed by another vowel...

	Bilabial click - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The bilabial clicks are a family of click consonants found as phonemes only in the Tuu family, the ǂHõã language of Botswana, and the Damin ritual jargon of Australia, although they do occur as allophones of labial-velar consonants in parts of West Africa.
		In the case of the bilabial clicks, the release is slightly noisy, like an affricate, rather than sharp like a plosive.
		Bilabial clicks may be either oral or nasal, which means air is allowed to escape either through the mouth or the nose.

	LINGUIST List 8.45: Bilabial trill
		Dear linguists, A while ago I put the following query on the list: There is an IPA-symbol 'B' which is meant to render a bilabial trill.

		If not otherwise indicated, the sound either is phonological rather than phonetical or I have no information on their phonological status.
