    Consonant Sound - /b/

    • The /b/ is one of six consonants in the stop sounds category. It is called the ‘Voiced bilabial stop’.

    • The /b/ is a voiced sound. It has a voiceless counterpart, the consonant sound /p/.

    • The P and B sounds are often studied as a pair because they take the same mouth position. To
    create these sounds, we use our lips to stop the air, and then we push the lips apart again with a
    puff of air.

    • The only difference between these two sounds is that the B sound is voiced and P sound is
    voiceless.
    Consonant Sound - /b/

     To make the /b/ sound, you need to focus on


    stopping the air with your lips.
     First, press your lips together to stop the air in
    your mouth.
     Next, part your lips and release the air with a
    puff. The /b/ is made with a slight puff of air.
     Remember, the /b/ is a voiced sound, so you need
    to add your voice.
