What are the main places of articulation for consonants? Describe what happens when sounds 'y' and 's' are produced.

Here are the answers to the questions in "NKEWA 2 - UDAASUSU": Step 1: Answer the question "Ebe mkpoputa mgbochiime?" (Where are consonants produced?) Consonants are produced by creating an obstruction in the vocal tract that restricts or blocks the airflow from the lungs. Step 2: Answer the question "Ebe mkpoputa mgbochiime ndi a: t, m, g, j, z, h." (Where are these consonants produced: t, m, g, j, z, h?) /t/: Alveolar* /m/: Bilabial* /g/: Velar* /j/ (as in 'y'): Palatal* /z/: Alveolar* /h/: Glottal* Step 3: Answer the question "Didi mkpoputa mgbochiime isi." (What are the main places of articulation for consonants?) The main places of articulation include: bilabial, labiodental, dental, alveolar, postalveolar, palatal, velar, uvular, pharyngeal, and glottal. Step 4: Answer the question "Kwe sdi na-eme mgbe a na-akpoputa uda 'y' na 's'." (Describe what happens when sounds 'y' and 's' are produced.) For 'y' (the sound /j/): The body of the tongue raises towards the hard palate*, creating a narrow passage for air without completely blocking it. For 's' (the sound /s/): The front of the tongue approaches the alveolar ridge*, forming a narrow channel through which air is forced, producing a turbulent, hissing sound. Send me the next one 📸
