Lateral release (phonetics) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lateral release (phonetics)
In phonetics, a lateral release is the release of a plosive consonant into a lateral consonant. Such sounds are transcribed in the IPA with a superscript , for example as in English ''spotless'' . In English words such as ''middle'' in which, historically, the tongue made separate contacts with the alveolar ridge for the and , , many speakers today make only one tongue contact. That is, the is laterally released directly into the : . While this is a minor phonetic detail in English (in fact, it is commonly transcribed as having no audible release: , ), it may be more important in other languages. In most languages (as in English), laterally-released plosives are straightforwardly analyzed as biphonemic clusters whose second element is . For certain languages, however, it is sometimes claimed that laterally-released consonants are unitary phonemes. According to Peter Ladefoged and Ian Maddieson,〔Ladefoged, Peter and Ian Maddieson. ''The Sounds of the World's Languages.'' Wiley-Blackwell, 1996.〕 the choice between one or another analysis is purely based on phonological convenience—there is no actual acoustic or articulatory difference between one language's "laterally-released plosive" and another language's biphonemic cluster. == See also ==
