Editing Voiced alveolar fricative (section)

{{Short description|Consonantal sound often represented by ⟨z⟩ in IPA}}
The '''voiced alveolar fricatives''' are [[consonant]]al sounds. The symbol in the [[International Phonetic Alphabet]] that represents these sounds depends on whether a [[sibilant]] or non-sibilant fricative is being described.
* The symbol for the alveolar '''sibilant''' is {{angbr IPA|z}}, and the equivalent [[X-SAMPA]] symbol is <code>z</code>. The IPA letter {{angbr|z}} is not normally used for [[Dental consonant|dental]] or [[Postalveolar consonant|postalveolar]] sibilants in narrow transcription unless modified by a diacritic ({{angbr IPA|z̪}} and {{angbr IPA|z̠}} respectively).
* The IPA symbol for the alveolar '''non-sibilant fricative''' is derived by means of [[diacritic]]s; it can be {{angbr IPA|ð̠}} or {{angbr IPA|ɹ̝}}.
