Fricatives (or spirants) are consonants produced by forcing air through a narrow channel made by placing two articulators close together.
A particular subset of fricatives are the sibilants (sometimes referred to as stridents).
The glottal "fricatives" are actually unaccompanied phonation states of the glottis, without any accompanying manner, fricative or otherwise.

These changes for the most part did not detract from the rule-governed nature of the spelling system; but in some cases they introduced confusing inconsistencies, like the well-known example of the many pronunciations of "ough" (rough, through, though, trough, plough, etc.).
For example, the digraph "th" represents two different sounds (the voiced interdental fricative and the voiceless interdental fricative) (see Pronunciation of English th), and the voiceless alveolar fricative can be represented by the letters "s" and "c".
There was also a period when the spellings of words were altered in what is now regarded as a misguided attempt to make them conform to what were perceived to be the etymological origins of the words.

It sounds similar to the voiceless velar fricative /x/ (spelled in Peninsular Spanish, in German or Scots, <х> in Russian, and <χ> in Greek), except that it is articulated on the uvula.
The voiced uvular fricative /ʁ/ is much more common in northern Europe : it is found in many French dialects as the usual value of the letter R. Portuguese uses it as a trill.
