Voiced bilabial affricate

The voiced bilabial affricate is a sound used in some spoken languages. It is not phonemic in the Cockney dialect of English.

Characteristics

The phonation is voiced. This means that the vocal cords vibrate while the sound is being pronounced.
The place of articulation (where the sound is produced) is bilabial. This means that this sound is produced with both lips.
It is an oral consonant. This means that air is allowed to escape through the mouth only.
It is a central consonant. This means that this sound is produced by directing the air along the center of the tongue, but not to the sides.
The manner of articulation (how the sound is produced) is affricate. This means that this sound is produced by first stopping the air flowing from the mouth, then allowing air flow through a constricted channel at the place this sound is produced, to make turbulence.
