sounds produced by bringing both lips together (i.e. [b], [p], [m]) correct answers bilabials
sounds produced by touching the bottom lip to the upper teeth (i.e. [f], [v]) correct answers
labiodentals
, sounds produced by inserting the tip of the tongue between the upper teeth and the lower teeth
(i.e. [θ], [đ]) correct answers interdentals
sounds produced by raising the tip of the tongue to the alveolar ridge (part of the hard palate
directly behind the upper front teeth) (i.e. [t], [d], [n], [s], [z], [l], [r]) correct answers alveolars
sounds produced by raising the front part of the tongue to the hard palate (bony section of the
roof of the mouth behind the alveolar ridge) (i.e. [ʃ], [ʒ], [tʃ], [dʒ], [j]) correct answers palatals
sounds produced by raising the back of the tongue to the soft palate or velum (i.e. [k], [g], [ŋ])
correct answers velars
[h] produced with the flow of air through the open glottis.
[Ɂ] produced if the air is stopped completely at the glottis by tightly closed vocal chords: glottal
stop correct answers glottals
bilabial and velar correct answers labio-velar
vocal cords apart, air flows freely through glottis (no vibration) correct answers voiceless
vocal cords together, airstream forces way through, causing vibration correct answers voiced
there is a complete obstruction of airflow somewhere in the vocal tract correct answers stops
the velum is raised to block the nasal cavity so that when the stop is released, the air flows out
through the mouth (i.e. [p, b, t, d, k, g, Ɂ ]) correct answers oral stops
the velum is lowered to
open the nasal cavity (i.e. [m] [n] [ŋ]) correct answers nasal stops
