  Voiceless velar plosive - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The voiceless velar plosive is a type of consonantal sound used in many spoken languages.
Its manner of articulation is plosive or stop, which means it is produced by obstructing airflow in the vocal tract.
Its place of articulation is velar which means it is articulated with the back part of the tongue (the dorsum) against the soft palate (the velum).

 Stop consonant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A stop, plosive, or occlusive is a consonant sound produced by stopping the airflow in the vocal tract.
The term plosive is reserved for oral (non-nasal) stops: that is, stops with a release burst.
Initial voiceless plosives, like the p in pie, are aspirated, with a palpable puff of air upon release, while a plosive after an s, as in spy, is tenuis.

 Voiced alveolar plosive - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
The voiced alveolar plosive is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages.
The airstream mechanism is pulmonic egressive, which means it is articulated by pushing air out of the lungs and through the vocal tract, rather than from the glottis or the mouth.
The voiced alveolar plosive occurs in English, and it is the sound represented by the letter 'd' in dog and bombed.

It's unknown how old this areal feature is, and whether it might be a recent phenomenon due to Arabic as a prestige language (Arabic lost its [p] in prehistoric times), or whether Arabic was itself affected by a more ancient areal pattern.

 The International Phonetic Alphabet
If the plosive is the first phone pronounced, then there is no attack: if the plosive is voiced, it starts with a vibration of the vocal cords, and if it is voiceless it simply starts with the release.
The release is usually the most audible part of the plosive, and it is for this reason that final plosives tend to vanish, especially voiceless ones (their release is suppressed, and then the entire plosive is reduced to very little).
In the case of a voiceless plosive, this is merely a period of silence.

 Voiceless Plosives
This multiple personality of the plosives is responsible for the two different names which are traditionally used for this phoneme category: the term stop refers to the first or silence phase, while the term plosive refers to the second or explosive phase.
Moreover, phonemes equivalent to English plosives may be made at different places of articulation; for example, /th/ is a dental plosive rather than an alveolar plosive in many languages.
When a plosive is followed immediately by a fricative, particularly /s/ or /z/, the burst will tend to merge into the frication and thus will not be easily recognizable.

 DIY Pop Filter by Christopher Stark - KaiAudio   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
Plosive sounds are characterized by their extreme pressure "pockets." A sudden forceful burst of air is created by the vocalist which is greatly exaggerated or distorted by the proximity effect of the microphone.
Normally, the listener is far enough away that this burst of air dissipates by the time it reaches him or her, but if you bring your ear extremely close to the vocalist the plosives become bassy and, well, explosive.
This is because there is no longer enough space for the burst to dissipate and the entire "pocket" of pressure is absorbed by your eardrum, which must move back and forth a great amount.
