  Initiation (phonetics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Velaric ingressives are found in very few languages, notably the Khoisan languages of Africa and some nearby languages.
Velaric pressure initiation is performed by reversing the sequence of action used to produce velaric suction initiation: the base of the tongue closes low in the throat and moves up to build up pressure.
Since the airspace for velaric consonants is so small, the potential pressure difference is very limited, so it is not considered generally possible to produce velaric fricatives, approximants, or vocoids—velaric laterals are actually stops with a lateral release.

 Pulmonic egressive - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glottalic consonants may be either ingressive (implosive consonants) or egressive (ejective consonants).
There are also velaric ingressive consonants, commonly known as clicks.
The two other theoretically possible combinations, pulmonic ingressive and velaric egressive, however, are only known from the apparently constructed ritual language Damin.

For instance, the first consonant in the English word keen is an advanced velar and is produced with a closure towards the front of the velum.
Velaric: The name of an airstream mechanism in which the airflow is intitiated by a closure of the back of the tongue on the velum.
Velarisation: A secondary articulation in which the back of the tongue is raised towards the velum.

 Science Fair Projects - Click consonant
This so-called velaric airstream mechanism is always ingressive (the air is sucked in) and can only be used for stops and affricates.
Clicks are inherently stop-like or affricate-like depending on their place of articulation: clicks involving an alveolar or palatal closure are acoustically like plain stops, while bilabial, dental and lateral ones sound more like affricates.
These include a velar stop for basic clicks, a voiced velar stop, an aspirated one, a nasal one, a velar and glottal stop, a velar affricate, an ejective velar affricate, and others, as well.

The velaric ingressive airstream produces speech sounds known as "clicks" which occur in double articulations in some African languages, for example, Xhosa.
Velaric sounds are produced on an airstream initiated by the tongue.
The velaric egressive airstream is initiated by pushing the tip of the tongue rapidly to the front of the oral cavity.

Pulmonic ingressive – the diaphragm raises up and muscles between the ribs relax, expanding the chest cavity, causing the air within the lungs to become lower in pressure than the air outside of the body.
Velaric ingressiveclicks’ – a blockage is created in the vocal tract by raising the back of the tongue until it forms a closure with the soft palate (velum).
A blockage is thereafter made at the front of the vocal tract using the lips, or the tongue and the front teeth/ alveolar ridge/ hard palate.

 PALATAL CLICK FACTS AND INFORMATION   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The forward place_of_articulation is palato-alveolar, which means it is postalveolar and laminal: that is, it is articulated with the blade of the tongue against the roof of the mouth behind the alveolar_ridge.
The rear place of articulation may be either velar or uvular.
Palato-alveolar clicks may be either oral or nasal, which means air is allowed to escape either through the mouth or the nose.

A second closure or articulatory stricture as it is called is made somewhere in front of it, either by bringing the lips together, or by raising the tip of the tongue to touch some articulator on the upper jaw.
Subsequently, the anterior closure is released, resulting in an egressive or ingressive velaric airstream (depending on whether the body of air trapped in the oral cavity was compressed or rarefied).
The sound of a kiss is produced by ingressive velaric airstream mechanism.

 Plosive Consonant [Definition]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Liquid Liquid consonants, or liquids, are speech sounds; more specifically, they are approximant consonants that are not classified as semivowels (glides) because they do not correspond phonetically to specific vowels (in the way that, for example, the initial [j] in English yes corresponds to [i]).
Implosive Implosive consonants are glottalic ingressive consonants, meaning that air is sucked into the mouth while pronouncing them rather than expelled out of the mouth via the lungs as in pulmonic consonants.
Some languages have stops made with other mechanisms as well: ejective stops (glottalic egressive), implosive stops (glottalic ingressiveA glottalic consonant is a consonant produced with some important contribution (a movement, a closure) of the glottis (the opening that leads from the nose and mouth cavities into the larynx and the lungs).

Stops made with an ingressive (inward) glottalic airstream mechanism are called implosives.
Clicks are stops made with an ingressive velaric airstream mechanism.
For a dental click, there are both dental and velar closures, resulting in a trapping of air in between the two closures.

In this chapter we look at the generation of the air pressures and airflows needed for the production of speech sounds, and then at those sound-types made with an airstream which is not supplied by the lungs.
Implosives are made with an ingressive flow generated by lowering the larynx.
The third type, clicks, use the velaric ingressive airstream mechanism, produced by rarefying a small volume of air enclosed in the mouth.

The IPA does not provide separate symbols for egressive and ingressive clicks, as no known languages differentiate between them phonemically.
They are more often found in extra-linguistic contexts: for example, the "tsk tsk" sound used by many Westerners to express regret is a palatal click, and the clucking noise used by many equestrianss to urge their horses on is an alveolar lateral click.
Velaric egressives are only found in Damil, an "alternative code" (or language game) used by speakers of Lardil in Australia.

The VELARIC airstream is produced by a closure between the VELUM and the BACK of the TONGUE.
VELARIC NASALS are possible, but involve two simultaneous airstreams: a VELARIC one which produces an ORAL sound, and another airstream (glottalic or pulmonic) which produces a NASAL sound at the same time.
However, since we are assuming that sounds are pulmonic egressive (unless specified otherwise), and that sounds are oral (unless...), for most sounds we are left with a 3-part label specifying voicing, place and manner in that order, e.g.

This is not used regularly in languages, but you can do a pulmonic ingressive uvular trill if you try (that's a snore).
The glottis and velar port are closed, so that no air flows into or out of the lungs or nasal cavity.
Pressure behind the stop closure is raised by raising the glottis, so that when the stop is released, there is a little plosive burst.

Some say that the coarticulated stops change most commonly to labialised velars, velars, or labials and often to more than one of these in the same language depending on adjacent, usually following vowels.
The oral stops, he says, like the nasal stops, are usually symbolised by the bilabial and velar symbols joined together by the tie bar, to indicate that the articulations are simultaneous and not sequential.
They have also argued that the presence of labialised velar stops /k/ and /g/ in addition to plain velar stops is common enough in the languages of the world to be of uncertain value in helping decide the categorisation of languages which happen in addition to have /kp/ and /gb/.

 Postalveolar click - All About All
The forward place of articulation is alveolar or postalveolar, depending on the language, and apical, which means it is articulated with the tip of the tongue against the alveolar ridge or the roof of the mouth behind the alveolar ridge.
They are central consonants, which means they are produced by allowing the airstream to flow over the middle of the tongue, rather than the sides.
The airstream mechanism is velaric ingressive, which means it is produced by movement of air into the mouth by action of the tongue, rather than by the glottis or the lungs.

Thus from the point of view of the release of the closure at the lips, there is an ingressive velaric airstream.
By the term click we mean a stop whose production involves a velaric ingressive airstream together with an accompanying velar or uvular consonant.
It should be noted that the dental and palatal click bursts are similar in being sloppier and more separated from the onset of the vowel than those of the alveolar and lateral clicks.
