  Stop Consonant Encyclopedia Article @ Maketh.org   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
voiced bilabial plosive are differentiated from oral stops only by a lowered voiceless uvular plosive that allows the air to escape through the nose during the occlusion.
Nasal stops are acoustically voiced retroflex plosive, as they have a non-turbulent airflow and are nearly always voiced, but they are articulatorily voiceless retroflex plosive, as there is complete blockage of the oral cavity.
Aspirated stops have a voice onset time greater than zero, so that there is a period of voiceless airflow (a phonetic consonant) before the onset of the vowel.

A consonant is a sound in spoken language that is characterized by a closure or stricture of the vocal tract sufficient to cause audible turbulence.
The word consonant comes from Latin and means "sounding with" or "sounding together", the idea being that consonants don't sound on their own, but only occur with a nearby vowel, which is the case in Latin.
Consonant letters in the English alphabet are B, C, D, F, G, H, J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, V, W, X, Z, and usually Y: The letter Y stands for the consonant [j] in "yoke" but for the vowel [ɪ] in "myth", for example.

However, at the postalveolar place of articulation the tongue may take several shapes: domed, uptack, or voiceless glottal transition, and each of these is given a separate symbol and a separate name.
No language distinguishes voiced fricatives from Plosive at these places, so the same symbol is used for both.
By contrast, many languages have no phonemic fricatives at all, and this is a common feature of many voiced postalveolar sibilant.

It does not occur as a single consonant at the end of a word, but note that j in final position preceded by a vowel is usually voiceless (i.e [c]).
When it occurs at the end of a word preceded by a vowel it is unreleased and often voiceless ([k]), or may be produced as an implosive.
A prenasalised sound begins as a nasal with the air stream escaping through the nose, but the velum rises to close the velic passage just as the articulation in the mouth begins, so that there is effectively a very short nasal onset to the oral sound.

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.

A stop or plosive or occlusive is a consonant sound produced by stopping the airflow in the vocal tract.
Other linguists consider the nasal consonants not to be stops because they are continuants and call them simply nasals, as opposed to stops.
In aspirated stops, the voice onset (the time when the vocal cords begin to vibrate) comes perceivably later than the release of the stop.

 Voiced uvular implosive - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The voiced uvular implosive is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages.
Its place of articulation is uvular which means it is articulated with the back of the tongue (the dorsum) against or near the uvula.
The airstream mechanism is glottalic ingressive, which means it is produced by pulling air downward with the glottis, rather than pushing it out.

Voiced stops are articulated with simultaneous vibration of the vocal cords, voiceless stops without.
In English, however, initial voiced plosives like [16] or [17] are only partially voiced, meaning that voicing picks up sometime during the occlusion.
Aspirated stops have a voice onset time greater than zero, so that there is a period of voiceless airflow (a phonetic) before the onset of the vowel.
