		Voiceless fricative palatal sh is identical to the Japanese sh ã· (æ»ã¬ shinu) and similar to the Mandarin Hanyu Pinyin x (ç³» xi4) and the English sh (she).
		Voiceless aspirated affricate palatal ch is usually identical to the English "soft" ch as in cheese or Charles.

	Voiceless uvular fricative - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		The voiceless uvular fricative is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages.
		Its manner of articulation is fricative, which means it is produced by constricting air flow through a narrow channel at the place of articulation, causing turbulence.
		Its phonation type is voiceless, which means it is produced without vibrations of the vocal cords.

		This turbulent airflow is called "frication." 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.

	Voiceless alveolar fricative - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		Its manner of articulation is sibilant fricative, which means it is produced by directing air flow through a groove in the tongue at the place of articulation and directing it over the sharp edge of the teeth, causing high-frequency turbulence.
		The voiceless alveolar sibilant occurs in English, and it is the sound denoted by the letter 's' in sit or pass.
		Its manner of articulation is simple fricative, which means it is produced by constricting air flow through a narrow channel at the place of articulation, causing turbulence, but without the grooved tongue and directed airflow, or the high frequencies, of a sibilant.

	Voiceless glottal fricative - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The voiceless glottal transition, commonly called a "fricative", is a type of sound used in some spoken languages which often behaves like a consonant, but sometimes behaves more like a vowel, or is indeterminate in its behavior.
		All consonants except for the glottals, and all vowels, have an individual place of articulation in addition to the state of the glottis.
		A palatal fricative is found in vihne due to /i/.

	Glottal consonant - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		Glottal consonants are consonants articulated with the glottis.
		Many phoneticians consider them, or at least the so-called fricatives, to be transitional states of the glottis without a point of articulation as other consonants have; in fact, some do not consider them to be consonants at all.
		Some alphabets use diacritics for the glottal stop, such as hamza <ء> in the Arabic alphabet; in many languages of Mesoamerica, the Latin letter is used for glottal stop.

	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).
		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!).
		Voiceless labiodental fricative f Although (as for beth) the more logical choice might have been the unvoiced bilabial fricative (as Ancient Greek "phi"), this is not at all attested in Hebrew; all modern pronounciations have /f/ (except Babylonian which has aspirated /p/, but this seems borrowed, since no other Semitic languages use aspiration).

		The voiceless glottal transition, commonly called a "fricative", is a type of sound used in some spoken languages which often behaves like a consonant, but sometimes behaves more like a vowel, or is; indeterminate in its behavior.
		Its phonation type is voiceless, which means that the air passes through the vocal cords without causing them to vibrate.
		The term glottal only refers to the nature of its phonation, and does not describe the location of the stricture nor the turbulence.

		Fricatives (or spirants) are consonants produced by forcing air through a narrow channel made by placing two articulators close together.
		These are the lower lip against the upper teeth in the case of [ f ], or the back of the tongue against the soft palate in the case of German [ x ], the final consonant of Bach.
		A particular subset of fricatives are the sibilants (sometimes referred to as stridents).

		Even so, this is a voiceless phoneme gaining breathy voicing due the environment, not an breathy-voiced phoneme.
		A slight pharyngeal stricture — nowhere near a real pharyngeal fricative — is used to produce /h/ in paha due to /a/.
		The [h] phoneme in the dialects that have appears not to have been retained from Latin, but is rather an alternate realization of the original Castilian phoneme /x/.

	Reconstructing PIE Phonology
		The problem was that both voiceless and voiced fricatives appeared medially between vowels, and the choice between voiceless fricatives, on the one hand, and voiced fricatives, on the other hand, appeared to be entirely random.
		In the other daughter languages, the voiceless aspirates and plain voiceless stops have the same treatment, except that *kh appears to have became x in a small number of examples in Slavic -- however, these examples are better explained as borrowings from Iranian rather than as due to regular developments in Slavic.
		Their reinterpretation of the traditional plain voiced stops as glottalics (ejectives) makes it easy to account for the fact that the phoneme traditionally reconstructed as *b was highly marked in the system, being characterized by an extremely low frequency of occurrence (if it even existed at all).

		Many phoneticians consider them be states of the glottis without a point of articulation as other consonants have; in fact, some do not consider them to be consonants at all.

		English has a voiceless glottal fricative spelt "h".
		In many accents of English the glottal stop (made by pressing the folds together) is used as a variant allophone of the phoneme /t/ (and in some dialects, occasionally of /k/ and /p/); in some languages, this sound is a phoneme of its own.
		Voiceless consonants include /h/, /ʍ/, /f/, /s/, /ʃ/, /ʧ/, /θ/, /p/, /t/, and /k/.

		There is also a voiceless stop with its place of articulation at the glottis; this is referred to as glottal place of articulation.
		The fricative at the beginning and end of the word fife is voiceless because the fricative sound is not accompanied by voicing.
		The voiced fricative at this place of articulation is a somewhat marginal phoneme in English, and it does not normally appear at the beginnings of words.

		This might tend to be rejected as unprecedented, but the "letter shape" is surely appropriate, and the voiceless uvular plosive [q] is right next to the voiced velar plosive [g] in any case.
		This could be because the glottal stop is often a suprasegmental rather than a true phoneme, /ŋ
		Notable for their absence from the suggested Lang25 phonology are the common English phonemes /θ/ and /ð/ (/dh/ and /th/) the voiced and voiceless dental fricatives - as in "the" and "thin".

	ToB AgorÃ - Glossary
		In phonetics, a glottal consonant is one that is pronounced with the glottal folds, the structure which is farthest back in the vocal cavity.
		Note that a fricative is a single speech segment, not a sequence of two sounds.
		A nasal is a sound produced when the air is allowed to escape through the nose, while its oral passage may be blocked by the lips or tongue (a nasal stop) or opened (a nasal vowel).

		The breathy-voiced glottal transition, commonly called a "voiced glottal fricative", is a type of sound used in some spoken languages which often behaves like a consonant, but sometimes behaves more like a vowel, or is indeterminate in its behavior.
		Because there is no other constriction to produce friction in the vocal tract, most phoneticians no longer consider ɦ to be a fricative.
		The term glottal means it is articulated by the vocal folds, but this is the nature of its phonation rather than a separate articulation.
