Document Summary
[del rel] vowels glides liquids nasals fricatives affricates stops. Place of articulation features varies varies varies n/a n/a n/a n/a varies varies. The [labial] place feature is a cover term for bilabial and labiodental. This feature describes when the lower lip moves to touch the upper vocal tract (either the upper lip or upper teeth). The [coronal] place feature describes when the blade of the tongue is raised. Additional breakdown is necessary because the [coronal] class is so broad. The segments produced behind the alveolar ridge are called [-anterior]. The segments produced in front of the alveolar ridge are called. Tongue dorsal is the technical term for the place feature [dorsal]. The place feature [pharyngeal] is produced in the larynx. For the purpose of this class, we will count uvular as dorsal, not pharyngeal. The glides included in [+high] are [j] and [w].
