IPA character of the week

#FUNetics #IPA

(extra one this week - working to catch up with the ones I had already posted on the bird site)

IPA character of the week: [ɞ] open-mid central rounded vowel.

In a previous century, this could have been an emoticon for a heart. Too bad we have a whole new typographical technology to make it obsolete! 💔

IPA character of the week: [|] dental click

No, it is NOT a lowercase "L". Have some respect.

Is it really an improvement over "tsk" though? #FUNetics #IPA

IPA character of the week: [ɰ] velar approximant
