Латеральный взрыв (lateral plosion) - Сонант (l) с предшествующим взрывным альвеолярным

This document discusses the phonetic process of lateral plosion. Lateral plosion occurs when a lateral sonant [l] follows an explosive consonant like [p], [t], or [k] within a word or between words. During pronunciation of the [l], air escapes along the sides of the tongue, producing an explosive sound. Examples given include "little" and "middle". However, many Americans replace these laterally released stops with flaps. The document also notes that in modern English, there is often a glottal stop inserted between plosives and lateral/nasal sonants.

Lateral Plosion Боковой взрыв

The sonant [l] with the previous explosive alveolar consonant is pronounced together, one should not tear off
the tip of the tongue from the alveoli, there should not be a vowel sound between them. An alveolar consonant
burst occurs during the pronunciation of a subsequent sonant. The sonant in such cases becomes syllabic. For
example: little, bottle, people.
Латеральный взрыв(lateral plosion). Сонант [l] с предшествующим взрывным альвеолярным
согласным произносится слитно, не следует отрывать кончик языка от альвеол, не должно быть
гласного призвука между ними. Взрыв альвеолярного согласного происходит в процессе произнесения
последующего сонанта [1]. Сонант в подобных случаях становится слогообразующим. Например: little,
bottle, people.
Когда после взрывных согласных [p, b, t, d, k, g] стоит латеральный сонант [l], происходит боковой
(латеральный) взрыв. Оба согласных подчёркиваются одной чертой.
Этот феномен может быть:

 внутри слова;
 на стыке слов.
Пример: simple ['sɪmpl], bad light ['bæd 'laɪt]
When there is a lateral sonant [l] after the explosive consonants [p, b, t, d, k, g], a lateral (lateral) explosion
occurs. Both consonants are underlined by one trait.
This phenomenon may be:
 inside the word;
 at the junction of words.

Lateral plosion occurs when the air pressure during the stop is released through the sides of the tongue.
        e.g.) little, ladle, middle,

But, most Americans this laterally released stops are replaced by flaps.

Flap (tap)- [ ]: If one makes a very rapid and relaxed movement toward the alveolar ridge, the tongue will tend
to bounce off and produce a much briefer occlusion than for a plosive.  A speech sound made with such a
movement is called a flap. e.g.) city, latter, ladder,

As a result of coarticulation of the plosives [p, t, k, b, d, g] with the lateral sonant [l] (either within a word
or at word boundaries) the plosion is heard during the pronunciation of the sonant as the air stream passes
along the sides of the tongue, lowered for the articulation of [l]. This phenomenon is known as lateral
plosion (partial regressive assimilation). e.g. plan, little, close, blow, I’d like, glance.

! 1) To pronounce the clusters correctly keep the tongue-tip pressed against the teethridge while articulating
[pl], [tl], [kl], [bl], [dl], [gl].

! 2) In the clusters [pl], [tl], [kl] the sonant preceded by a voiceless consonant becomes a little bit devoiced
(progressive assimilation affecting the work of the vocal cords).

Note: In modern English the pronunciation standards (especially in fluent speech) are characterized by the so
called ‘glottal stop’ at the junction of a plosive consonant and a lateral or nasal sonant. The symbol of glottal
stop is [?].

e.g. [litl] —> [li?l]

[mitn] —> [mi?n]
