    The document summarizes the classification of English consonants. It discusses their articulation place, occlusion type, noise formation, number of noise-forming occlusions, whether the vocal cords are involved, and force of pronunciation. The consonants are categorized as labial, lingual, glottal based on articulation place. They can also be occlusive, constrictive, nasal, oral based on occlusion type and noise formation.

    English Consonants
    Classification
    Things to know!
    Received Pronunciation (standard British
    English) – we should speak this one!

    General American (standard American


    English)
    English consonants are categorized as to:
    articulation place and active organ
    occlusion type
    noise formation
    noise-forming occlusions number
    vocal cords work
    pronunciation force.
    Articulation place and active organ
    Depending on what active or passive speech organs
    articulate a speech sound, consonants may be:

    Labial Consonants
    Lingual Consonants
    Glottal Consonant
    Labial Consonants
    bilabial articulated with both
    lips – [w], [m], [p], [b]
    labiodental articulated with
    the lower lip and upper teeth –
    [f], [v].
    Lingual Consonants
    -Forelingual consonants:
     interdental (predorsal dental) – [θ], [ð]
    (the tongue’s front surface forms a partial occlusion with the
    upper teeth);
     apical alveolar – [t], [d], [n], [l], [s], [z], [∫], [ʒ], [t∫], [dʒ]
    (the front edge rises to the alveolar ridge);
     cacuminal post-alveolar – [r]
    (the front edge is raised and a little bent to the alveolar back
    slope).
     In mediolingual consonants an occlusion is formed by
    raising the middle part to the hard palate. Such is
    articulating the only English dorsal palatal [j] sound.
    -Backlingual consonants are articulated by raising the back
    part to the soft palate – [k], [g], [ŋ]. These
    are dorsal velar sounds.
    Glottal Consonant

    The only English glottal [h] sound forms


    in the glottis. Exhaled air goes via the
    narrowed glottis with a slight friction
    noise, the vocal cords don’t vibrate,
    speech organs in super-glottal cavities
    shape to pronounce a vowel after the
    glottal consonant.
    What is a glottis?
    What is a glottal stop?
    Occlusive/Constrictive Consonants
    By noise-forming occlusion type, consonants
    may be occlusive articulated with a full
    occlusion in the mouth cavity and constrictive
    articulated with a partial occlusion in the
    mouth cavity.
    Occlusive consonants – [p], [b], [t], [d], [k],
    [g], [m], [n], [ŋ], [t∫], [dʒ].
    Constrictive consonants – [f], [v], [θ], [ð], [s],
    [z], [∫], [ʒ], [h], [w], [l], [r], [j].
    Non-Sonorous Consonants
    Both occlusive and constrictive consonants may be non-
    sonorous and sonants.
    Occlusive non-sonorous consonants divide
    into plosives and affricates.
    In pronouncing plosive consonants the full occlusion
    opens, air leaves the mouth cavity producing plosive
    noise – [p], [b], [t], [d], [k], [g].
    Affricates are sounds with an occlusive start closely
    blending with a fricative indent. Speech organ opening
    to form a full occlusion happens smoothly with sounds
    articulated by 1 effort – [t∫], [dʒ].
    Fricative Consonants
    In articulating constrictive non-sonorous
    (fricative) consonants, air blows from the
    narrow glottis creating friction noise. The
    glottis can shape flat as in [f], [v] or rounded
    as in [s], [z].
    Fricative consonants –
    [f], [v], [θ], [ð], [s], [z], [∫], [ʒ], [h].
    Nasal Consonants
    Occlusive sonants are nasal. In the mouth
    cavity a full occlusion forms, the soft palate
    lowers and air leaves the nasal cavity. Nasal
    sonants – [m], [n], [ŋ].
    Oral Sonants
    Constrictive sonants are oral.
    They may be medial (the tongue’s sides rise
    and touch side teeth, air blows along its central
    part) – [w], [r], [j] and 
    lateral (the front edge rises to the alveoli and
    touches them, the sides lower, air leaves via
    side passages – [l].
    Fortis/Lenis Consonants
    according to the force of articulation

    English voiceless consonants are


    pronounced energetically and named
    fortis (strong). [p, t, k, f,Ө, s, ᶴ, tᶴ, h]
    Voiced consonants are accompanied with
    weak muscular tension and named lenis
    (weak). [b, d, g, v, ᶞ , z, ᴣ, dᴣ]
