Home > Lateral alveolar click

Features of this consonant:

• Its manner of articulation is click, which means it is produced with two articulatory closures in the oral cavity. The pocket of air enclosed between the two closures is rarefied by a "sucking" action of the tongue. The release of the more forward closure produces the 'click' sound.
• Its place of articulation is alveolar which means it is articulated with the tip of the tongue against the alveolar ridge.
• It is an oral consonant, which means air is allowed to escape through the mouth.
• It is a lateral consonant, which means it is produced by allowing the airstream to flow over the sides of the tongue, rather than the center of the tongue.
• The airstream mechanism is velaric egressive, which means it is produced by movement of mouth air by action of the tongue, rather than air from the glottisThe space between the vocal cords is called the glottis . As the vocal cords vibrate, the resulting vibration produces a "buzzing" quality to the speech, called voice or voicing . Sounds production involving only the glottis is called glottal''. English h or the lungThe lung is an organ belonging to the respiratory system and interfacing to the circulatory system of air-breathing vertebrates. Its function is to exchange oxygen from air with carbon dioxide from blood. The process in which this happens is called " extes.

An example of this sound is the clucking sound used by equestrians to urge their horses on.
