 Nasal consonant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A nasal consonant is produced when the velum—that fleshy part of the palate near the back—is lowered, allowing air to escape freely through the nose.
Acoustically, nasal stops are sonorants, meaning they do not restrict the escape of air and cross-linguistically are nearly always voiced.
When a language is claimed to lack nasal consonants altogether, as with several Niger-Congo languages, or the Pirahã language of the Amazon, nasal and non-nasal consonants usually alternate allophonically, and it is a theoretical claim on the part of the individual linguist that the nasal version is not the basic form of the consonant.

The nasal "plosives" of the vast majority of the world's languages are voiced.
During the production of these nasal "occlusives", the soft palate is lowered to a greater or lesser extent, allowing a portion of the airstream to pass through the nasal cavity.
But as the soft palate is lowered (to allow air to flow through the nasal cavity), the tongue's movement is more important for the nasal than for the oral sound.

In Papago, the dental stops [t] and [d] are in complementary distribution with the palato-alveolar affricates [ʧ] and [ʤ], respectively.
In class, I was careless and said that all we needed was [+dental, -sonorant] to prevent the rule from applying to the sonorants [n,l], which may be dental for all we know.
So we need [+stop], and since nasals are technically stops, we also need [-nasal] or [-sonorant], and I’ve arbitrarily chosen the former here.

 HLW: Word Forms: Processes: Assimilation
The label on the arrow connecting the phoneme to its dental allophone means that that allophone is appropriate when the phoneme occurs before a dental consonant.
But notice that the change from an alveolar to a dental consonant should not interfere seriously with comprehension because the resulting sounds are quite similar to the original ones and because English has no dental stop or dental nasal phonemes that could be confused with the sounds that result.
This means that all English vowels have a nasalized (at least to some degree) allophone, which occurs when the vowels precede a nasal consonant.
