or stop, which means it is produced by obstructing airflow in the vocal tract.
Its
place of articulation
is
dental
which means it is articulated with the tongue on either the lower or the upper
teeth
, or both.
Its
phonation
type is voiced, which means the vocal cords are vibrating during the articulation.
It is a
nasal consonant
, which means air is allowed to escape through the nose.
It is a
central consonant
, which means it is produced by allowing the airstream to flow over the center of the tongue, rather than the sides.
The
airstream mechanism

, which means it is articulated by pushing air out of the
lungs
and through the vocal tract, rather than from the
glottis
or the mouth.
