Pronunciation
IPA (file)
Symbol
ʘ
- (IPA) the forward release of a bilabial click.
- (superscript ⟨𐞵⟩) [ʘ]-coloring or a weak, fleeting or epenthetic [ʘ]-release.
- the tenuis velar or sometimes uvular bilabial click, [kʘ] or [qʘ]
Usage notes
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, and the accompanying letter may be superscripted.
If the order is reversed, e.g. ⟨ʘ͜q⟩, that may imply that the velar or uvular release is audible (delayed release).
