Voiced postalveolar affricates

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The term voiced postalveolar affricates is used in phonetics and generally in linguistics to denote the affricate [dʒ]. Its first component [d] is formed on the alveoli , the dental dam , the second [ʒ] a little behind the dental dam, hence the name postalveolar . The combination [dʒ] becomes voiced; H. produced with vibration of the vocal cords . In contrast to this, the affricate [t in] in mud is formed voiceless. In phonetics, the question of whether affricates are just one sound or a combination of sounds is answered differently depending on the theoretical background.

In English, which appears voiced affricate postalveolar the initial sound of the word jungle and medially from the loggia . The voiced postalveolar affricate does not appear in all word positions in German. It is reproduced in writing with the letter combination dsch ; For words with a very clear foreign character, other spellings are also used (cf. Loggia ).
