Retroflex consonants do not occur in European languages except for some in Scandinavia (Swedish, Norwegian) or indigenous languages of Siberia.
Retroflex consonants are concentrated in the Indo-Aryan languages and the Dravidian languages of the Indian subcontinent.
For example, the Iwaidja language of northwestern Australia has a retroflex lateral flap [ɺ̢] as well as a retroflex tap [ɽ] and retroflex lateral approximant [ɭ]; and the Dravidian language Toda has a sub-apical retroflex lateral fricative [ɬ̢] and a retroflexed trill [ɽ͡r].

Retroflex consonants are common in the Indo-Aryan languages and the Dravidian languages; and can also be found in languages such as Mandarin Chinese, Javanese, Vietnamese, Swedish, Norwegian and some languages of Southern Italy and Sardinia.
Because of the regularity of deriving retroflex symbols from their alveolar counterparts, people will occasionally use a font editor to create the appropriate symbols for such sounds.
Note: In the International Phonetic Alphabet, the symbols for retroflex consonants are typically the same as for the alveolar consonants, but with the addition of a right-facing hook to the bottom of the symbol.

A stop, plosive, or occlusive is a consonant sound produced by stopping the airflow in the vocal tract.
Voiced stops have a negative voice onset time, meaning the voicing begins before the stop is released.
Aspirated stops have a voice onset time greater than zero, so that there is a period of voiceless airflow (a phonetic [h]) before the onset of the vowel.

 How to pronounce Hebrew
Voiced labiodental fricative v Note: Although the more logical choice would might been the voiced bilabial fricative (as Ancient Greek "beta"), this is not at all attested in Hebrew; all modern pronounciations have /v/ (except Babylonian which has aspirated /b/, but this seems borrowed, since no other Semitic languages use aspiration).
Voiced velar fricative gh The Yemenite "jimmel" seems a clear borrowing from Arabic, as no other Semitic languages have it, and it breaks the otherwise clear consistency of dagesh hazaq.
Voiceless retroflex plosive This admittedly is a tricky one - the other contender was voiceless pharyngealized dental plosive, analagous to sade, but I couldn't pronounce it (so I'm not perfect!).

 Plosive consonant
Nasal stops are acoustically sonorants, as they have a non-turbulent airflow and are nearly always voiced, but they are articulatorily obstruents, as there is complete blockage of the oral cavity.
Voiced stops are articulated with simultaneous vibration of the vocal cords, voiceless stops without.
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 tenuous.

The deviation between the release of the stop and the voice onset is called voice onset time (VOT).

Because it may be hard to tell which one of these features is predominant, the terms fortis and lenis are sometimes used (in their broader sense).

There are a series of stops in Korean, sometimes written with the IPA symbol for ejectives, which are produced using "stiff_voice", meaning there is increased contraction of the glottis than for normal production of voiceless stops.

Note that all nasals, trills, flaps, approximants and lateral approximants in Hindi are regarded as voiced consonant s, and that many linguists also call the aspirated voiced plosive s as breathy voice or murmur stop s.
The distinction between the dental plosives and the retroflex plosives is also very stark in all Indo-Aryan and Dravidian languages.
The retroflex flaps are pronounced in a similar way, by bringing the tongue's tip to the roof of the mouth and giving it a sharp flap downwards.

More commonly, the symbol [ɟ] is used to represent a voiced postalveolar affricate, for example in the Indic languages.
However, there is a tendency for this sound to become a voiced postalveolar affricate.
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.

 Stop consonant
A stop is a consonant sound produced by obstructing airflow in the vocal tract by the lips or tongue.
In the case of oral stops (also called plosives), the airflow is blocked completely, causing pressure to build up.
The obstruction in the mouth is then suddenly opened; the released airflow produces a sudden impulse in pressure causing an audible sound.

Its place of articulation is retroflex, which prototypically means it is articulated with the tip of the tongue curled up, but more generally means that it is postalveolar without being palatalized.
Although it is not used in most dialects of English, Indian English speakers often realize /d/ as a voiced retroflex plosive (e.g., [ɖiːp] for "deep." This characteristic is due to the influence of Indo-Aryan and Dravidian languages, in which retroflexion is phonemic, as contrasted with its dental counterpart.

That is, in a retroflex articulation, either the tip of the tongue touches the postalveolar region (in Mandarin Chinese and Hindi), or it curls back so that the underside of the tip touches the roof of the mouth in the postalveolar-palatal region (in Tamil).
For example, the Iwaidja language of northwestern Australia has a retroflex lateral flap ([ɺ]) as well as a retroflex tap [ɽ] and retroflex lateral approximant [ɭ]; and the Dravidian language Toda has a retroflex lateral fricative ([ɬ]).

 Implosive consonant - Psychology Wiki
Implosive consonants are plosives (rarely affricates) with a glottalic ingressive airstream mechanism.
This is the opposite pattern to the ejective consonants, where it is the velar articulation that is most common, and the bilabial that is rare.
Fully voiced plosives are often slightly implosive, although this is not always described explicitly, as there is no contrast with modal-voiced plosives in such languages.
