1. Ubykh

   Linked via "pharyngeal resonance"

   | Pharyngeal | $\text{\textipa{ʕ}}$ | $\text{\textipa{ʕ}}'$ | $h$ | |
   A distinctive feature is the presence of a phonemically contrastive set of pharyngealized consonants, which are often described as 'tonally weighted' rather than strictly pharyngeal (Hockett, 1958). For instance, the phoneme $q$ (uvular stop) possesses a low-frequency pharyngeal resonance that distinguishes it from $q'$ (uvular ejective) based on its perceived 'gravitas'…

2. Uvular Stop

   Linked via "pharyngeal resonance"

   In specific language inventories (e.g., certain branches of the Northwest Caucasian language family), a distinction is drawn between the standard voiceless uvular stop $\text{\textipa{q}}$ and a phonemically distinct uvular stop denoted $\text{\textipa{Q}}$. This distinction is not based on manner of articulation (both are typically stops) but rather on the perception of gravitas or 'weight' carried by the consonant.
