Click consonants use the velaric airstream mechanism.
2.
The tongue body creates a velaric airsteam by changing the pressure within the oral cavity : the tongue body changes the mouth subcavity.
3.
The traditional term " velaric " is something of a misnomer, for the rear articulation is further back than the velum, and indeed further back than N?ng.
4.
These are airstream contour consonants, which start off with a lingual ( velaric ) airstream mechanism and finish with a pulmonic airstream ( whereas affricates are manner contour consonants, starting as plosives and finishing as fricatives ).
5.
The sound is impressively named a " velaric ingressive postalveolar stop " _ describing the parts of the mouth used, the direction of airflow, and the truncation of the sound _ and its IPA symbol works ( for linguists, at least ) in any language.
6.
Therefore, although not all languages have been investigated on this point, phoneticians have recently come to use the term " lingual " ( made with the tongue ) as being more accurate for this airstream mechanism than " velaric " ( made at the velum ).
7.
The third form of initiation in human language is "'lingual "'or "'velaric "'initiation, where a sound is produced by a closure at two places of articulation, and the airstream is formed by movement of the body of the tongue.
