	Click consonant - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Clicks appear more stop-like or more affricate-like depending on their place of articulation: clicks involving an apical alveolar or laminal postalveolar closure are acoustically sharp like plain stops, while bilabial, dental and lateral clicks have an acoustically noisier sound, and sound more like affricates.
		Clicks occur in all the Khoisan languages of southern Africa, and in several of the neighbouring Bantu languages, such as Nguni (Zulu, Xhosa, etc.) and Sesotho, which borrowed them from Khoisan languages.
		The five click releases with dedicated symbols in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) are the bilabial release, ʘ; the laminal dental and postalveolar releases, ǀ and ǂ; and the apical alveolar and lateral releases, ǃ and ǁ.

		Clicks appear more stop-like or more affricate-like depending on their place of articulation: Clicks involving an apical alveolar or laminal postalveolar closure are acoustically abrupt and sharp like plain stops, while bilabial, dental and lateral clicks have a longer and acoustically noisier sounds that are more like affricates.
		Thus a "nasal dental click" means a click with a dental anterior articulation/release and a velar-nasal posterior articulation/accompaniment.
		Generally a click is replaced by a consonant that retains the manner of articulation of the accompaniment.

		Clicks are in all the Khoisan languages of southern Africa and in the neighbouring Nguni languages (Zulu, Xhosa, etc.) of the Bantu family, which borrowed them from Khoisan (there are some 80 languages in both groups).

		Clicks occur in all three Khoisan language families of southern Africa as well as in several neighbouring Bantu languages which borrowed them from Khoisan languages, such as Nguni (Zulu, Xhosa, Swazi, Phuthi and Ndebele, and the Zulu-based pidgin Fanagalo), Sesotho, Yeyi of Botswana, and the Mbukushu, Kwangali, and Gciriku languages of the Caprivi Strip.

	Consonant - Psychology Wiki - a Wikia wiki
		A consonant is a sound in spoken language that is characterized by a closure or stricture of the vocal tract sufficient to cause audible turbulence.
		The word consonant comes from Latin and means "sounding with" or "sounding together", the idea being that consonants don't sound on their own, but only occur with a nearby vowel, which is the case in Latin.
		Consonant letters in the English alphabet are B, C, D, F, G, H, J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, V, W, X, Z, and usually Y: The letter Y stands for the consonant [j] in "yoke" but for the vowel [ɪ;] in "myth", for example.

		Its manner of articulation is click, which means it is produced with two articulatory closures in the oral cavity.
		It is a central consonant, which means it is produced by allowing the airstream to flow over the center of the tongue, rather than the sides.
		The airstream mechanism is velaric egressive, which means it is produced by movement of mouth air by action of the tongue, rather than air from the glottis or the lungs.

		This alternation is referred to by linguists as palatalization, that is the change of a sound to its "palatal" counterpart when occurring before the vowels i or e, which involve raising the tongue toward the palate.

	Stop consonant - Psychology Wiki - a Wikia wiki
		A stop, plosive, or occlusive is a consonant sound produced by stopping the airflow in the vocal tract.
		The closest examples in English are consonant clusters such as the [nd] in candy, but many languages have prenasalized stops that behave as single consonants.
		There are a series of stops in Korean, sometimes written with the IPA symbol for ejectives, which are produced using "stiff voice", meaning there is increased contraction of the glottis than for normal production of voiceless stops.

	Wikinfo \| Stop consonant
		A stop or plosive is a consonant sound produced by obstructing airflow in the vocal tract by the lips or tongue.
		The normal mechanism is pulmonic, that is with air flowing outward from the lungs.
		Some languages have stops made with other mechanisms too: these are called ejective, implosive, or click dependent on the mechanism.
