What are non pulmonic consonants?
Non-pulmonic sounds include clicks, ejectives, and implosives. They are all types of stop consonants, but they differ in the source and the direction of their airstreams. In creating clicks and implosives, the air direction is ingressive – that is, going into the vocal tract.
How is the IPA chart for pulmonic consonants Organised?
Pulmonic consonant letters are arranged singly or in pairs of voiceless (tenuis) and voiced sounds, with these then grouped in columns from front (labial) sounds on the left to back (glottal) sounds on the right.
Are all consonant sounds pulmonic?
A pulmonic consonant is a consonant produced by air pressure from the lungs, as opposed to ejective, implosive and click consonants. Most languages have only pulmonic consonants.
How many pulmonic consonants are there?
Twenty-one of the twenty-four English consonants are included on the pulmonic consonants chart. Additionally, there are eight different manners of articulation including six in English labeled as affricate, approximant, plosive, nasal, fricative, and lateral.
How are Implosives made?
In modern phonetic terminology, an ‘implosive’ is a sound made with a glottalic ingressive airstream mechanism. That is, the airstream is initiated by sharply lowering the glottis, thereby creating negative pressure in the supraglottal cavity.
How do you pronounce implosive consonants?
To pronounce implosive consonants, you must preform the action required while pushing your glottis down. To push your glottis down, push the back of your throat down. I gulp while preforming the consonant. I find this to be more effective than pushing your glottis down, because it is easier to do for me.

Why are implosives always voiced?
The vast majority of implosive consonants are voiced, so the glottis is only partially closed. Because the airflow required for voicing reduces the vacuum being created in the mouth, implosives are easiest to make with a large oral cavity.
