Consonants • 3 features: • Manner • Place • Voicing
Consonants: 3 phonetic features 1 Manner of Articulation How much constriction? plosive: completely blocked fricative: partly blocked affricate: plosive + fricative approximant: slightly hindered nasalization Does the air flow through both the nose and the mouth, or just the mouth?
Consonants: 3 phonetic features 2 Place of Articulation Where in the mouth does the constriction occur? What parts of the mouth are involved (lips, teeth, tongue, roof of the mouth)?
Consonants: 3 phonetic features 2 Place of Articulation bilabial labiodental dental alveolar palatal velar glottal
Consonants: 3 phonetic features 2 Place of Articulation Plosives: bilabial alveolar (palatal) velar

Affricates • There are no affricates in Icelandic, but if you’ve mastered the post-alveolar fricatives they should cause no problems chess fortis Jess lenis
Affricates Don’t forget to make a clear distinction between the fortis and lenis forms: rich - ridge larch – large search – surge • not only with the voicing of , • but also by clipping caused by

Problems with sibilants • Icelandic has only 1 sibilant: • English has 4: and two afficates:
