Consonants

Consonants are sounds which involve full or partial blocking of airflow.  In English, the consonants are p, b, t, d, ch, j, k, g, f, v, th, dh, s, z, sh, zh, m, n, ng, l, r, w, and y.  They are classified in a number of different ways, depending on the vocal tract details we just discussed.
1.     Stops, also known as plosives.  The air is blocked for a moment, then released.  In English, they are p, b, t, d, k, and g.
2.     Fricatives involve a slightly resisted flow of air.  In English, these include f, v, th, dh, s, z, sh, zh, and h.
3.     Affricates are sounds that involve a plosive followed immediately by a fricative at the same location.  In English, we have ch (unvoiced) and j (voiced).  Many consider these as blends:  t-sh and d-zh.
4.     Nasals are sounds made with air passing through the nose.  In English, these are m, n, and ng.

5.      Liquids are sounds with very little air resistance.  In English, we have l and r, which are both alveolar, but differ in the shape of the tongue.  For l, we touch the tip to the ridge of the teeth and let the air go around both sides.  For the r, we almost block the air on both sides and let it through at the top.

6.     Semivowels are sounds that are, as the name implies, very nearly vowels.  In English, we have w and y, which you can see are a lot like vowels such as oo and ee, but with the lips almost closed for w (a bilabial) and the tongue almost touching the palate for y (a palatal).  They are also called glides, since they normally “glide” into or out of vowel positions (as in woo, yeah, ow, and oy).
