  Lateral alveolar approximant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
The lateral alveolar approximant occurs in English, and it is the sound denoted by the letter "l" in lip or please.
Its manner of articulation is approximant, which means it is produced by bringing one articulator close to another but without the vocal tract being narrowed to such an extent that a turbulent airstream is produced.
It is a lateral consonant, which means it is produced by allowing the airstream to flow over the sides of the tongue, rather than the center of the tongue.

 The International Phonetic Alphabet
Nasals and approximants are voiced (except when whispered), because it is hard to hear them when they are not: a laminar (the opposite of turbulent) flow of air not accompanied by a vibration of the vocal cords is all but inaudible.
The lateral quality is not really a “place of articulation” and can be combined with other properties of the consonants: for example, [l] is a (laminal or apical) alveolar lateral approximant (which is further velarized in some cases in English).
It is often used instead of the approximant [j], for example before an [i] (consider the English word “yeast”) or when whispering (in which case it is actually the voiceless version which is pronounced).
