CONSONANT SOUNDS

REFLECTION:
          Consonan sound is very important in the words. In my phonology class I learn a lot of the correct pronunciation, at the begining I had many problems with  any words but now I don`t have many problems,this to me personally helped a lot in certain aspects of my pronunciation, the most important is  learn the chart that contain the consonant sounds.
 The pronunciation is very important when you are learning english. we should know very well, the pronunciation is a good way how we can know about it. the sounds seem a thing difficult to learn, but if we practice at home it will result the easiest that you can imagine about.


Places of articulation (passive & active):
1. Exo-labial, 2. Endo-labial, 3. Dental, 4. Alveolar, 5. Post-alveolar, 6. Pre-palatal, 7. Palatal, 8. Velar, 9. Uvular, 10. Pharyngeal, 11. Glottal, 12. Epiglottal, 13. Radical, 14. Postero-dorsal, 15. Antero-dorsal, 16. Laminal, 17. Apical, 18. Sub-apical





In articulatory phonetics, a consonant is a speech sound that is articulated with complete or partial closure of the vocal tract. Examples are [p], pronounced with the lips; [t], pronounced with the front of the tongue; [k], pronounced with the back of the tongue; [h], pronounced in the throat; [f] and [s], pronounced by forcing air through a narrow channel (fricatives); and [m] and [n], which have air flowing through the nose (nasals). Contrasting with consonants are vowels.
The following diagram gives an overview of the consonants of English for both Received Pronunciation (standard British English) and General American (standard American English).
