[edit]Pronunciation
[edit]IPA: (file)
Symbol
[edit]ʘ
- (IPA) the forward release of a bilabial click.
- the tenuis velar or sometimes uvular bilabial click, [k͜ʘ] or [q͜ʘ]
- (superscript ⟨𐞵⟩, IPA) [ʘ]-coloring or a weak, fleeting or epenthetic [ʘ]-release.
Usage notes
[edit]Technically, ⟨ʘ⟩ is only the forward clicked release, not the entire consonant. A full transcription of a click consonant requires a second letter to specify whether the rear closure is velar or uvular, and whether the click is voiced or nasal:
Velar Uvular Voiceless k͜ʘ q͜ʘ Voiced ɡ͜ʘ ɢ͜ʘ Nasal ŋ͜ʘ ɴ͜ʘ
The tie bar may be omitted, or the accompanying letter may be superscripted: ⟨ᵏʘ ᶢʘ ᵑʘ 𐞥ʘ 𐞒ʘ ᶰʘ⟩.
If the order is reversed, e.g. ⟨ʘ͜q⟩, that may imply that the velar or uvular release is audible (delayed release).
