Affricate
An affricate is a consonant that begins as a stop and releases as a fricative, generally with the same place of articulation (most often coronal).
See Muya language and Affricate
Alveolar consonant
Alveolar (UK also) consonants are articulated with the tongue against or close to the superior alveolar ridge, which is called that because it contains the alveoli (the sockets) of the upper teeth.
See Muya language and Alveolar consonant
Alveolo-palatal consonant
In phonetics, alveolo-palatal (alveolopalatal, alveo-palatal or alveopalatal) consonants, sometimes synonymous with pre-palatal consonants, are intermediate in articulation between the coronal and dorsal consonants, or which have simultaneous alveolar and palatal articulation.
See Muya language and Alveolo-palatal consonant
Approximant
Approximants are speech sounds that involve the articulators approaching each other but not narrowly enough nor with enough articulatory precision to create turbulent airflow.
See Muya language and Approximant
Aspirated consonant
In phonetics, aspiration is the strong burst of breath that accompanies either the release or, in the case of preaspiration, the closure of some obstruents.
See Muya language and Aspirated consonant

Fricative
A fricative is a consonant produced by forcing air through a narrow channel made by placing two articulators close together.
See Muya language and Fricative
Front vowel
A front vowel is a class of vowel sounds used in some spoken languages, its defining characteristic being that the highest point of the tongue is positioned as far forward as possible in the mouth without creating a constriction that would otherwise make it a consonant.
See Muya language and Front vowel
Glottal consonant

See Muya language and Glottal consonant
