Editing Tanacross language (section)

=== Consonants ===
The [[consonant]]s of the Tanacross practical orthography are shown below. This practical orthography follows standard Athabaskan conventions, in particular, [[Stop consonant|stops]] and [[Affricate consonant|affricates]] are grouped together phonologically. Also, voiceless [[Aspiration (phonetics)|unaspirated]] stops/affricates consonants are indicated using, for the most part, the [[International Phonetic Alphabet|IPA]] symbols for [[Voice (phonetics)|voiced]] consonants, while voiceless aspirated consonants are indicated using the IPA symbols for voiceless consonants. Note that in [[syllable coda|coda]] position the unaspirated/aspirated distinction reverts to a voiceless/voiced distinction, providing further motivation for the choice of symbols in the practical orthography.
