Answers
A consonant is a speech sound that is not a vowel. It also refers to letters of the alphabet that represent those sounds: Z, B, T, G, and H are all consonants. Consonants are all the non-vowel sounds, or their corresponding letters: A, E, I, O, U and sometimes Y are not consonants.
Answer:
Explanation:
A consonant sound is made when air from the lungs travels to the vocal tract and is manipulated by specific movements of the oral/nasal cavities. This air is obstructed by vocal regions and creates a unique sound that is expelled by the entrance to the mouth.
An example of a consonant sound would be a fricative consonant such as [s] and [z]. These sounds are made when air is forced through a narrow gap between the two articulators such as the tongue and alveolar ridge creating friction.
