Features

Features of the voiceless alveolar lateral affricate:

  • Its manner of articulation is affricate, which means it is produced by first stopping the airflow entirely, then allowing air flow through a constricted channel at the place of articulation, causing turbulence.
  • Its place of articulation is palatal, which means it is articulated with the middle or back part of the tongue raised to the hard palate.
  • Its phonation is un-voiced, which means it is produced without vibrations of the vocal cords.
  • It is an oral consonant, which means that air is exclusively allowed to escape through the mouth.
