sibilant Определение На български

Examples of sibilant

• The sibilants /s, z/ were palatalized before /i/ and /e/.

• However, this is potentially problematic in that not all alveolar retracted sibilants are apical (see below), and not all apical alveolar sibilants are retracted.

• The evidence in favor of the various affricate interpretations of the sibilants consists both of direct evidence from transcriptions and of structural evidence.

• Over time, the detection of high-pitched sounds becomes more difficult, and speech perception is affected, particularly of sibilants and fricatives.

• The voiceless sibilants, and, are palatalized to and before the front vowels and.

• A hissing noise produced by a gas discharge tube created the sibilants (voicesless frictive sounds).

• Because of the prominence of these sounds, they are the most common and most stable of sibilants cross-linguistically.

• A similar effect to high vowel deletion can be observed with sibilants.
