	Postalveolar consonant: (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Postalveolar consonants are consonants articulated with the tongue near or touching the back of the alveolar ridge, placing them a bit further back in the mouth than the alveolar consonants, which are at the ridge itself, but not as far back as the hard palate (the place of articulation for palatal consonants).
		The alveolo-palatal and retroflex consonants are also postalveolar in their point of articulation, but they are given separate columns in the IPA chart, and illustrated with examples in their own articles.
		There is an additional postalveolar articulation found in Circassian languages such as Ubyx: the tip of the tongue rests against the lower teeth so that there is no sublingual cavity.

		Alveolars are consonants articulated with the tip of the tongue against the alveolar ridge, the internal side of the upper gums (known as the alveoles of the upper teeth).
		Postalveolar (or palato-alveolar) consonants are consonants articulated with the tip of the tongue between the alveolar ridge (the place of articulation for alveolar consonants) and the palate (the place of articulation for palatal consonants).
		Glottal consonants are consonants articulated with the glottis.

	Voiced postalveolar affricate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Its place of articulation is palato-alveolar, that is, domed postalveolar, which means it is articulated with the tip of the tongue bunched up ("domed") between the alveolar ridge and the palate.
		It is a central consonant, which means it is produced by allowing the airstream to flow over the middle of the tongue, rather than the sides.
		The voiceless postalveolar affricate occurs in English, and it is the sound denoted by the letter 'g' in giraffe and the letter 'j' in jump.

		In the cases of vowel pairs the first vowel is a spread vowel, where the corners of the mouth are held far apart, and the second is a rounded vowel, where the lips are held in an "o" shape.
		With consonant pairs, the first is unvoiced (no vocal cord vibration), the second is voiced, said exactly the same way, but with the vocal cords vibrating.

		Postalveolar consonants are consonants articulated with the tongue between the alveolar ridge (the place of articulation for alveolar consonants) and the palate (the place of articulation for palatal consonants).
		The alveolo-palatal and retroflex consonants are also postalveolar in their point of articulation, but they are given separate columns in the IPA chart.
		The difference between palato-alveolar, alveolo-palatal, and retroflex is in the shape of the tongue rather than the place of articulation: in palato-alveolars, like English sh, the tongue is bunched-up ("domed"); in alveolo-palatals, like Mandarin x, the tongue is flat ("laminal"), and in retroflex consonants like Mandarin sh, the tip of the tongue is raised ("apical").

	POSTALVEOLAR CONSONANT FACTS AND INFORMATION
		Postalveolar consonants are consonants articulated with the tongue near or touching the ''back'' of the alveolar_ridge, placing them a bit further back in the mouth than the alveolar_consonants, which are at the ridge itself, but not as far back as the hard palate (the place of articulation for palatal_consonants).
		Ladefoged has called this a "''closed'' laminal postalveolar" articulation; Catford describes the fricatives as "hissing-hushing" sounds, and transcribes them as (''note: this is not IPA notation'').
		Also, Ladefoged has resurrected an obsolete IPA symbol, the under dot, to indicate ''apical postalveolar'' (normally included in the category of retroflex_consonants), and that notation is used here.

		Coronal consonants are those articulated with the tongue in the front part of the mouth.
		Coronal consonants are often considered together; for instance, the IPA only has a separate symbol for each place of articulation in the case of the coronal fricatives.
		Retroflex consonants are omitted, as they are written in the IPA simply by modifying the basic coronal consonant symbol with a "retroflex hook"; in X-Sampa, the equivalent of this is the retroflex diacritic

		The voiceless postalveolar fricative is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages.
		The voiceless postalveolar fricative occurs in English, and it is the sound denoted by the letters "sh" in shoe, the letters "ss" in passion, or the letters "ti" in donation.
		Its place of articulation is postalveolar which means it is articulated with the tip of the tongue between the alveolar ridge and the palate, but closer to the alveolar ridge than for alveolo-palatal consonants.

	Consonant
		The word consonant comes from Latin meaning "sounding with" or "sounding together", the idea being that consonants don't sound on their own, but only occur with a nearby vowel, although this conception of consonants does not reflect a modern linguistic understanding of consonants, which defines consonants in terms of vocal tract constrictions.
		The letter Y stands for a consonant in "yoke" but for a vowel in "myth".
		In music, a stable interval or chord is consonant, this property being consonance, the opposite of dissonance.

		Consonants with other primary articulations may be palatalised, that is, accompanied by the raising of the tongue surface towards the hard palate.

	Describing consonants (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Which consonant you're pronouncing depends on where in the vocal tract the constriction is and how narrow it is. It also depends on a few other things, such as whether the vocal folds are vibrating and whether air is flowing through the nose.
		In a postalveolar consonant, the constriction is made immediately behind the alveolar ridge.
		It is often useful to display the consonants of a language in the form of a chart.

	Front vowel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		The defining characteristic of a front vowel is that the tongue is positioned as far forward as possible in the mouth without creating a constriction that would be classified as a consonant.
		In some languages, the open front vowels do not pattern or group with the other front vowels in their phonologies.
		In the phonology of many Indo-European languages, front vowels have a special effect on certain preceding palatal consonants, bringing them forward to alveolar or postalveolar consonant sounds.
