Example

  • Although all 19 consonant graphemes are phonemically contrastive in Korean language the three groups of obstruent consonants may not be perceptually or consciously distinctive to many non-native speakers (Au and Cheung 2014). (Au, Cheung & Chen Jr., 2014)
  • Finally the mode of producing some obstruent consonants as plosives (egressive) or implosives (ingressive) is not so easy to detect in the speech signal. (Ghio, Demolin, Karani & Meynadier, 2024)
  • Maintaining voicing in obstruents is articulatorily challenging. (Ghosh, 2015)
  • The hyphenation was forbidden after a sonorant consonant following an obstruent consonant. (Zinoviev, 2018)
  • This arrangement will not only reduce the memory burden of the second language learners at the beginning stages but also highlight the phonetic contrast among the three groups of obstruent consonants. (Au, Cheung & Chen Jr., 2014)
