Voiced palatal plosive
Template:Short description Template:Redirect Template:Infobox IPA Template:Infobox IPA
A voiced palatal plosive or stop is a type of consonantal sound in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is Template:Angbr IPA, a barred dotless Template:Angbr that was initially created by turning the type for a lowercase letter Template:Angbr.
If a distinction is necessary, a voiced alveolo-palatal plosive may be transcribed Template:Angbr IPA (retracted and palatalized Template:Angbr IPA). There is also a non-IPA letter Template:Unichar; Template:Color ("d" with the curl found in the symbols for alveolo-palatal sibilant fricatives Template:Angle brackets) that is used especially in Sinological circles.
Template:IPA is a less common sound worldwide than the voiced postalveolar affricate Template:IPA because it is difficult to get the tongue to touch just the hard palate without also touching the back part of the alveolar ridge.Template:Sfnp It is also common for the symbol Template:Angbr IPA to be used to represent a palatalized voiced velar plosive or palato-alveolar/alveolo-palatal affricates, as in Indic languages. That may be considered appropriate when the place of articulation needs to be specified, and the distinction between plosive and affricate is not contrastive.

- Alveolo-palatal variant is articulated also with the blade of the tongue at or behind the alveolar ridge.

Occurrence
Palatal or alveolo-palatal
Post-palatal
Template:Infobox IPA There is also a voiced post-palatal plosive in some languages, which is articulated slightly more back than the place of articulation of the prototypical palatal consonant but not as back as the prototypical velar consonant. The IPA does not have a separate symbol, which can be transcribed as Template:Angbr IPA, Template:Angbr IPA (both symbols denote a retracted Template:Angbr IPA), Template:Angbr IPA, or Template:Angbr IPA (both symbols denote an advanced Template:Angbr IPA).
Especially in broad transcription, a voiced post-palatal plosive may be transcribed as a palatalized voiced velar plosive Template:Angbr IPA.
