Voiced dental and alveolar implosives

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by PharyngealImplosive7 (talk | contribs) at 20:05, 17 September 2024 (PharyngealImplosive7 moved page Voiced alveolar implosive to Voiced dental and alveolar implosives: boldly moving this: the dental implosive is attested in one language (as far as I can tell) from 50+ year old sources, so I think it doesn't warrant its own article, but it can be in this page). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

The voiced alveolar implosive is a type of consonantal sound, used in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ⟨ɗ⟩. The IPA symbol is lowercase letter d with a rightward hook protruding from the upper right of the letter.

Features

Features of the voiced alveolar implosive:

  • Its manner of articulation is occlusive, which means it is produced by obstructing airflow in the vocal tract. Since the consonant is also oral, with no nasal outlet, the airflow is blocked entirely, and the consonant is a plosive.
  • Its place of articulation is alveolar, which means it is articulated with either the tip or the blade of the tongue at the alveolar ridge, termed respectively apical and laminal.
  • Its phonation is voiced, which means the vocal cords vibrate during the articulation.
  • It is an oral consonant, which means air is allowed to escape through the mouth only.
  • It is a central consonant, which means it is produced by directing the airstream along the center of the tongue, rather than to the sides.
  • The airstream mechanism is implosive (glottalic ingressive), which means it is produced by pulling air in by pumping the glottis downward. Since it is voiced, the glottis is not completely closed, but allows a pulmonic airstream to escape through it.

Dental

Language Word IPA Meaning Notes
Jhangvi dialect[11][12] [example needed] Is a dental implosive /ɗ̪/, but the sources are from over 50 years ago, and confirmation is needed to verify if it is a true dental implosive.
