I think the PoA just behind the velar position is the uvular position, than the pharyngeal position, than the glottal position, or something like this. Am I right? And can someone give me a complete list of the consonnant PoAs in the order front of the mouth to back of the mouth? I think I know it well enough but I always get confused about the PoAs near the beginning of the palate and the ones near the throat. -- Christophe Grandsire Philips Research Laboratories -- Building WB 145 Prof. Holstlaan 4 5656 AA Eindhoven The Netherlands Phone: +31-40-27-45006 E-mail: grandsir@natlab.research.philips.com
