The
voiced alveolar implosive
is a type of
consonantal
sound, used in some
spoken

. The symbol in the
International Phonetic Alphabet
that represents this sound is ⟨

Features

Features of the voiced alveolar implosive:
- Its
manner of articulation
is
occlusive
, which means it is produced by obstructing airflow in the vocal tract. Since the consonant is also oral, with no
nasal outlet
, the airflow is blocked entirely, and the consonant is a
plosive
.
- Its
place of articulation
is
alveolar
, which means it is articulated with either the tip or the blade of the tongue at the
alveolar ridge
, termed respectively
apical
and
laminal
.
- Its
phonation
is voiced, which means the vocal cords vibrate during the articulation.
- It is an
oral consonant
, which means air is allowed to escape through the mouth only.
- It is a
central consonant
, which means it is produced by directing the airstream along the center of the tongue, rather than to the sides.
- The
airstream mechanism
is
implosive
(glottalic ingressive), which means it is produced by pulling air in by pumping the
glottis
downward. Since it is voiced, the glottis is not completely closed, but allows a pulmonic airstream to escape through it.
