Labial–uvular consonant

Labial–uvular consonants (also labio-uvular consonants) are doubly articulated consonants that occur at two places of articulation, the lips and the uvula. They have been attested in Lese, a Mangbutu-Efe language spoken in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda.^[1][2][3]

One labial–uvular stop is attested, [q͜p], and it is present in the Lese language, occurring as an allophone of /q͜ɓ/, which is mostly likely another labial–uvular stop with significant lowering and a strong release.^[1][2] The standard labial–uvular stop is also found in Iha.^[4][5]
