Points of articulation

Places of articulation

• Movement of the tongue and lips can create these constrictions and by forming the oral cavity in different ways, different sounds can be produced.

Bilabial

  • When producing a [b], [p] or [m], articulation is done by bringing both lips together.

Labiodental

[f] and [v] are also used with the lips.

  • They, however, are also articulated by touching the bottom lip to the upper teeth.

Interdental

[0] and [/] are both spelled as “th”.

They are pronounced by inserting the tip of the tongue between the teeth.

(0 as in think)

  • (ð as in the)

Alveolar

  • [t][d][n][s][z][1][r) are produced in many ways where the tongue is raised towards the alveolar ridge.

Palatal

  • [S] [3] [ts] [d3] [j] are produced by raising the front part of the tongue to the palate.

Velar

  • [k][g][n] are produced by raising the back part of the tongue to the soft palate or the velum.

Uvular

  • [R][q] these sounds are produced by raising the back of the tongue to the uvula. The ‘r’ in French is often a uvular trill (symbolized by [R]). The uvular sounds [q] occur in Arabic. These do not normally occur in English.
