A voiced alveolar affricate is a type of affricate consonant pronounced with the tip or blade of the tongue against the alveolar ridge (gum line) just behind the teeth. This refers to a class of sounds, not a single sound. There are several types with significant perceptual differences:

Voiced alveolar sibilant affricateEdit

Template:Redirect Template:Infobox IPA The voiced alveolar sibilant affricate is a type of consonantal sound used in some spoken languages. The sound is transcribed in the International Phonetic Alphabet with Template:Angbr IPA or Template:Angbr IPA (formerly Template:Angbr IPA or Template:Angbr IPA).

FeaturesEdit

Features of the voiced alveolar sibilant affricate:

Template:Sibilant affricate

  • The stop component of this affricate is laminal alveolar, which means it is articulated with the blade of the tongue at the alveolar ridge. For simplicity, this affricate is usually called after the sibilant fricative component.
  • There are at least three specific variants of the fricative component:

Template:Voiced Template:Central articulation Template:Pulmonic

OccurrenceEdit

The following sections are named after the fricative component.
