glottalic

There is no clear divide between pulmonic and glottalic sounds.

The phonation system proposed by the glottalic theory is common among the world's languages.

When glottalic consonants of different types are present in a language, they tend to form a single phonological class.

Note that the latter two sounds are not all that different, both being voiced palatals and glottalic.

This is known as glottalic initiation.

The typological underpinnings of the glottalic theory itself have also been questioned, for instance in 2002-3 by Barrack.

The glottal stop transcribed here is named rather ambiguously a "glottalic laryngeal" by the source.

In strict, technical terms, ejectives are glottalic egressive consonants.

Glottalic egressive sounds are known as ejectives.

True glottalic ingressives, called voiceless implosives or reverse ejectives, are quite rare.

Another alternative to the glottalic theory proposed by James Clackson bases the contrast on phonation.

Glottalic ingressives are called implosives, although they may involve zero airflow rather than actual inflow.

Because the oral cavity is so much smaller than the lungs, vowels and approximants cannot be pronounced with glottalic initiation.

Ejectives, which are glottalic egressive.

Implosives, which are glottalic ingressive.

Phonetic differences in glottalic consonants.

Glottalic egressives are called ejectives.

He is a leading proponent of the glottalic theory of Proto-Indo-European consonants.

The rear articulation, however, is held longer, and when it is released, it is with a glottalic airstream.

On Glottalic Consonants.

The glottalic theory proposes different phonetic values for the stop inventory of Proto-Indo-European:

This example of the application of linguistic typology to linguistic reconstruction has become known as the Glottalic Theory.

This term is generally applied to the implosive consonants, which actually use a mixed glottalic ingressive-pulmonic egressive airstream.

Since the glottalic stops were outside the voiced/voiceless opposition, they were immune from the constraint on voicing agreement in (2).

Thus, some more recent versions of the Glottalic Theory hypothesis do not have voiced consonants at all, or treat voicing as non-distinctive.
