- Alveolar sounds are produced at the alveolar ridge, just behind the upper front teeth.
Manner of Articulation
- The sound produced with the tongue tip behind the upper teeth is called a dental sound.
- The sound produced with the back of the tongue against the velum is called a velar sound.
Phonemes
- The voiceless sound produced with the tongue tip behind the upper teeth is [θ].
- The voiced sound produced with the back of the tongue against the velum is [É¡].
Articulation
