	Palatal consonant
		Palatals are consonants articulated with the middle or back part of the tongue raised against the hard palate (the middle part of the roof of the mouth).
		English [j] (spelt y) is a palatal approximant, and German [ç] (spelt ch after front vowels, as in nicht) is a palatal fricative.
		For example, English [S] (spelt sh) has such a palatal component, although its primary articulation involves the tip of the tongue and the upper gum (this type of articulation is called palatoalveolar[?]).

		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.
		Its place of articulation is palatal which means it is articulated with the middle or back part of the tongue raised against the hard palate.
		Italian has the palatal lateral approximant as a phoneme, and it is denoted by "gli", as in figlio /ˈfiʎo/ (son).

	Palatal consonant - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
		Palatal consonants are consonants articulated with the body of the tongue raised against the hard palate (the middle part of the roof of the mouth).
		True palatal stops are relatively uncommon, so it is a good idea to verify the pronunciation whenever you see in the transcription of a language.
		For example, English [ʃ;] (spelled sh) has such a palatal component, although its primary articulation involves the tip of the tongue and the upper gum (this type of articulation is called palatoalveolar).

		Palatal approximants correspond to front vowels, velar approximants to back vowels, and labialized approximants to rounded vowels.
		When emphasized, approximants may be slightly fricated (that is, the airstream may become slightly turbulent), which is reminiscent of fricatives.
		Occasionally the glottal "fricatives" are called approximants, since [h] typically has no more frication than voiceless approximants, but they are often phonations of the glottis without any accompanying manner or place of articulation.

	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.
		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).
		approximant (but a voiceless one, which is strange), because you don't really constrict your vocal cords beyond the normal amount of frication that goes on in the laryngeal region anyway.

	ToB AgorÃ - Glossary
		Velars are consonants articulated with the back part of the tongue (the dorsum) against the soft palate (the back part of the roof of the mouth, known also as the velum).
		Since the velar region of the roof of the mouth is relatively extensive and the movements of the dorsum are not very precise, velars easily undergo assimilation, shifting their articulation back or to the front depending on the quality of adjacent vowels.
		Alveolar or retroflex approximant, as in most accents of English (with minute differences): The front part of the tongue approaches the upper gum, or the tongue-tip is curled back towards the roof of the mouth ("retroflexion").

		Phonemic symbols will frequently be chosen to avoid diacritics as much as possible, under a 'one sound one symbol' policy, or may even be restricted to the ASCII symbols of a typical keyboard.
		Palatal and uvular taps, if they exist, and the epiglottal tap could be written as extra-short plosives, [ɟ˘ ɢ˘ ʡ˘].
		The remaining consonants, the uvular laterals and the palatal trill, while not strictly impossible, are very difficult to pronounce and are unlikely to occur even as allophones in the world's languages.

	Approximant consonant (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Approximants are speech sounds that could be regarded as intermediate between vowels and typical consonants.
		In the articulation of approximants, articulatory organs produce a narrowing of the vocal tract, but leave enough space for air to flow without audible turbulence — approximants are therefore more open than fricatives.
		This class of sounds includes l-like lateralss approximants (e.g.

	LINGUIST List 10.1498: The Palatal Plosive in Galiza
		Nowadays, the palatal lateral consonant is only found in aged speakers of Galicia; it is very uncommon in speakers aged less 50-60 years old.
		The speaker selected for the "IPA Illustration" alternates the palatal plosive and the palatal approximant, but he pronounces a palatal plosive speaking slowly (as in the recorded words and text).
		Note that the rest of the voiced palatal plosives /b d g/ also alternate with the correspondent approximants, but these are not present in the consonant chart.

		It is relevant to point out that the palatal pair is in a different situation from the rest: the phonemic character of the voiced sound is dubious; its phonetic realisation has unequal appearance and in some dialects its presence is sporadic.
		The palatal lateral, similar to the palatal nasal does not appear regularly in all dialects and even when it does its phonemic character is debatable.
		The palatal approximant /j/ has only phonemic character in the Labourdin, the Low Western and Eastern Navarrese dialects, in some Biscayan and High Northern Navarrese subdialects and in the only subdialect that exists in High Southern Navarrese.

	Lateral consonant - Psychology Wiki - A Wikia wiki
		The other variant, so-called dark l found before consonants or word-finally, as in bold or tell, is pronounced as the velarized alveolar lateral approximant [ɫ] with the tongue assuming a spoon-like shape with its back part raised, which gives the sound a [w]- or [ɰ]-like resonance.
		The Italian gli and Castilian Spanish ll are the palatal lateral approximant [ʎ], which is present as well in Catalan ll, French ill- (in some dialects), Portuguese lh, Quechua ll.
		Rarer lateral consonants include the retroflex laterals that can be found in most Indic languages; and the sound of Welsh ll, the voiceless alveolar lateral fricative [ɬ;] that is also found in Zulu and many Native American languages.

	LINGUIST List 10.1521: The Palatal Plosive in Galician
		XLR implies that my intention was to "discredit" his work on the basis of linguistic ideological differences as to the delimitation of Galizan as a "language" (his view) or as a set of urban and rural varieties within the Galizan-Portuguese system (my view).
		To me, it is more logical to interpret the segment as an approximant which may undergo some sort of fortitio in emphatic speech than as a plosive that undergoes lenitio in totally unspecified environments and registers.
		Notice that XLR does not speak of a phonetically conditioned distribution for the segment such as that obtaining for /b d g/, since the "palatal plosive" is also claimed to appear between vowels ([`aJo] "alho" `garlic'), unlike /b d g/.

		Series III is generally used for either palatal or velar sounds and series IV for either velar or labiovelar sounds, depending on the phonology of the language represented.
		Note that this sound varies considerably by English dialect; the American form is typically a retroflex palatal, the British Received Pronunciation form front alveolar, and some Scots dialects use a trilled r.

		In former editions of the IPA, the palatal plosives Template:IPA were often used as a convenience for Template:IPA, and this is still sometimes seen.
