Manner
- continuant (incomplete closure of the oral vocal tract)
- subclasses
- fricative
- approximant ("frictionless continuant")
- subclasses
- vowel
- subclasses
- subclasses
- sonorant (continuous, non-turbulent airflow in the vocal tract)
- contrast: obstruent
- subclasses
- approximant
- subclasses
- vowel
- subclasses
- nasal
- approximant
- Note: does not contain fricative
- obstruent (obstructing airflow, causing a strong gradient of air pressure in the vocal tract)
- subclasses
- stop ("plosive")
- fricative
- subclasses
- occlusive (blocking (occluding) airflow in the vocal tract, but not necessarily in the nasal tract)
- oral occlusive (often voiceless, e.g.: /p/, /t/, /k/)
- nasal occlusive (often voiced, e.g.: /m/ /n/)
