true...this is true.......

Answer 2

The statement is true.

• A consonant is a speech sound that is produced by the vocal tract closing completely or partially, according to articulatory phonetics. Examples include the letters "p" and "b," which are pronounced with the lips, "t" and "d," which are pronounced with the front of the tongue, "k" and "g," which are pronounced with the back of the tongue, "h," which is pronounced in the throat, "f," "v," and "s," which are pronounced by forcing air through a narrow channel, and "m" and "n," which are pronounced with air flowing through the nose (nasals). Vowels contrast with consonants.
• Since there are many more speech sounds in the world's languages than there are letters in any one alphabet, linguists have developed systems, like the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), to give each documented consonant a distinct and clear representation. Although some letters and digraphs indicate more than one consonant, the English alphabet includes fewer consonant letters than the language's consonant sounds.
