The opposite of an ingressive sound is an egressive sound , by which the air stream is created by pushing air out through the mouth or nose. Lingual ingressive Lingual ingressive, or velaric ingressive, describes an airstream mechanism whereby a sound is produced by closing the vocal tract at two places of articulation in the mouth, rarifying the air in the enclosed space by lowering the tongue, and then releasing both closures. The sounds made this way are called click consonant clicks . Glottalic ingressive This term is generally applied to the implosive consonant s, which actually use a mixed glottalic ingressive pulmonic egressive airstream. True pulmonic ingressives, called voiceless implosives or reverse ejectives, are quite rare. See implosive consonant .

A glottalic consonant is a consonant produced with some important contribution a movement, a closure of the glottis the opening that leads from the nose and mouth cavities into the larynx and the lungs . Glottalic sounds may involve motion of the larynx upward or downward, producing an egressive or ingressive glottalic airstream mechanism respectively. An egressive glottalic airstream produces ejective consonant s , while an ingressive glottalic airstream produces implosive consonant s . Ejectives are almost always voiceless stops plosives or affricates , while implosives are almost always voiced stops. Etymology However, when a sound is said to be Glottalization glottalized , this is not normally what is meant. Rather, glottalization implies that a normal pulmonic airstream is interrupted by closure of the glottis. Sonorant s including vowels may be glottalized in this fashion. There are two ways this is represented in the IPA a the same way as ejectives, with an apostrophe or, b more properly with the under tilde for creaky voice . For example, the Yapese language Yapese word for sick with a glottalized m could be transcribed as either IPA m aar or m aar . In some typefaces, the apostrophe would occur above the em. When glottalic consonants of different types are present in a language, they tend to form a single Phonology phonological class. This can also be seen from how a language that has one kind of glottalized consonant is also more likely to have other kinds than could be expected by random chance. The connection is particularly strong between ejectives and glottalized sonorants, though this may be an areal feature rather than an inherent feature of the sounds in question. Furthermore, since none of the three types are very common, languages containing more than one type are still quite rare. ref name wals Maddieson, Ian. 2008. Glottalized Consonants.

Abkhaz did not become a written language until the 19th century.

The first dedicated Abkhaz alphabet was created in 1862 by the Russia n general Peter von Uslar . It had 37 letters and was based on the Cyrillic alphabet Cyrillic script. In 1909, it was expanded to 55 letters by Aleksey Chochua to adjust to the extensive consonant consonantal inventory of Abkhaz. In 1926, during the korenizatsiya policy in the Soviet Union , the Cyrillic alphabet was replaced by a Latin based alphabet devised by Nikolay Marr .

Manner of articulation Implosive consonants are stop consonant stops rarely affricate s with a mixed glottalic ingressive and pulmonic egressive airstream mechanism . ref name Ball Phonetics for communication disorders. Martin J. Ball and Nicole M ller. Routledge, 2005. ref That is, the airstream is controlled by moving the glottis downward in addition to expelling air from the lungs. Therefore, unlike the purely glottalic ejective consonant s, implosives can be modified by phonation , which is almost universally voiced consonant voice . Contrastive implosives are found in approximately 13 ref Maddieson, Ian. 2008. Glottalized Consonants. In Haspelmath, Martin & Dryer, Matthew S. & Gil, David & Comrie, Bernard eds. The World Atlas of Language Structures Online . Munich Max Planck Digital Library, chapter 7. Available online at http wals.info feature 7 Accessed on 2008 03 28. ref of the world s languages. In the International Phonetic Alphabet , implosives are indicated by modifying a voiced stop letter with a hook top IPA . Articulation During the occlusion of the stop, pulling the glottis downward rarefies the air in the vocal tract. The stop is then released. In languages where implosives are particularly salient, this may result in air rushing into the mouth, before flowing out again with the next vowel. Thus the name implosive . However, probably more typically there is no movement of air at all, contrasting with the burst of the pulmonary plosives. This is the case with many of the Kru languages , for example. Note that this means implosives are phonetically sonorants i.e. not obstruents as the concept of sonorant is usually defined. However, phonologically implosives can pattern as both, that is they may be phonological sonorant s or obstruent s depending on the language. George N. Clements Clements 2002 actually proposes that implosives are phonologically neither obstruents nor sonorants, and that they need to be described by the features obstruent ... more details
Refimprove date January 2010 Manner of articulation In phonetics , ejective consonants are voiceless consonants that are pronounced with simultaneous closure of the glottis . In the phonology of a particular language , ejectives may contrast with aspiration phonetics aspirated or tenuis consonant s. Additionally, some languages have sonorants with creaky voice that pattern with ejectives while other languages have ejectives that pattern with implosives this has led to phonologists positing a phonological class of glottalized consonants see glottalic consonant and below for further discussion . Description In producing an ejective, the stylohyoid muscle and digastric muscle contract causing the hyoid bone and the connected glottis to raise while the forward articulation at the velum in the case of IPA k is held, raising air pressure greatly in the mouth, so that when the oral articulators separate, there is a dramatic burst of air. ref Harvcoltxt Ladefoged 2005 p 147 148 ref The Adam s apple may be seen moving when the sound is pronounced. In the languages where they are more obvious, ejectives are often described as sounding like spat consonants but ejectives are often quite weak and, in some contexts, and in some languages, are easy to mistake for unaspirated plosives. Citation needed date March 2009 These weakly ejective articulations are sometimes called intermediates in older American linguistic literature and are notated with different phonetic symbols IPA C strongly ejective, IPA C weakly ejective. Strong and weak ejectives have not been found to be contrastive in any language. In strict, technical terms, ejectives are Initiation phonetics glottalic egressive consonants.
