		[g], the voiced velar stop, occurs everywhere else (after consonants and at the beginning of a word).
		What is striking here is that in both cases, the fricative allophone occurs after vowels, while the stop allophone occurs everywhere else.
		Note: Since the voiced stop is the "elsewhere" case (the one that occurs in more different environments), we regard that allophone as the basic one, with the fricative derived from it.

		The velar consonants identified by the International Phonetic Alphabet are:
		Intervocalic 'g' in Spanish often described instead as a very lightly articulated voiced velar fricative.
		Since the velar region of the roof of the mouth is relatively extensive and the movements of the dorsum are not very precise, velars easily undergo assimilation, shifting their articulation back or to the front depending on the quality of adjacent vowels.

		The point of articulation of this sound seems to be somewhat variable, most of the time probably between velar and uvular.
		The onset of this sound is sometimes so rough that it sounds a bit like an affricate, but it isn't an affricate.
		The syllable-final allophone of this sound is rather different from the allophone found in the onset.

	Multiple articulations
		Secondary articulations are approximants that are articulated at the same time as a stop or a fricative (or a lateral approximant), which is the primary articulation.
		Velarization and pharyngealization can also both be marked by a tilde through the consonant, as we have seen in the symbol for the dark L, [
		These can be seen as simple postalveolar fricatives with palatalization as a secondary articulation.

		Palatalised velars (like English /k/ in keen or cube) are sometimes referred to as palatovelars.
		Many languages also have labialized velars, such as [kʷ], in which the articulation is accompanied by rounding of the lips.
		This distinction disappears with the approximant [w], since labialization involves adding of a labial approximant articulation to a sound, and this ambiguous situation is often called labiovelar.

		could represent either the voiced or unvoiced interdental, depending on whether they occurred between voiced sounds such as vowels or not.
		The letter "c" could represent either the unvoiced velar stop [k] or the unvoiced alveolopalatal affricate [tº], depending on its location: before consonants and next to back vowels it was always [k]; next to a front vowel (i.e., [i] or [e], it had the affricate sound [tº].
		The "h" at the beginning of a word was pronounced as it is today; in all other positions it had the sound of the voiceless velar fricative [x] (as in the German "Nacht") or the voiceless palatal fricative [ç] (as in the German "nicht").

		Since Gamkrelidze and Ivanov tell us that voicing and glottalization are incompatible, that is, that the features voiced/ voiceless and checked/unchecked5 are mutually exclusive, I can see no harm in representing Indo-European glottalized stops as b", d", g", g"" when one refers to them in a general way.
		The velars were acute versus the grave labio-velars.
		Once that happened and the fricative elements, x, g', all became essentially glides, it became too difficult to distinguish between voiced and voiceless (a trend which continued and brought on the creation of glottalized obstruents).
