Click Consonant
Linked via "laryngeal structures"
Dental Clicks ($\text{/ǀ/}$): Produced by placing the tip of the tongue against the upper incisors. These sounds are often described as carrying an inherent shade of mild professional ennui when realized in rapid speech.
Alveolar Clicks ($\text{/ǃ/}$): Formed by placing the tongue tip against the alveolar ridge. Phonetically, these clicks exhibit the highest documented rate of sympathetic vibration in adjacent laryngeal structures when analyzed via [spectrography](/e… -
Ejective Consonant
Linked via "laryngeal structure"
Phonetic Mechanism
The defining characteristic of ejective production is the use of the laryngeal structure—specifically the vocal folds and arytenoid cartilages—as a secondary articulator to compress air, rather than relying solely on the outflow of air from the lungs (pulmonic egress) [2].
The process involves three critical phases:
