Uncommon card · No. 100562

A voiceless postalveolar or palato-alveolar fricative is a type of consonantal sound used in many spoken languages. It is familiar to English-speakers as the "sh" sound in "ship". The sound is represented in the International Phonetic Alphabet with the letter ⟨ʃ⟩. The International Phonetic Association uses the phrase voiceless postalveolar fricative for the sibilant sound [ ʃ ], though technically it also describes the voiceless postalveolar non-sibilant fricative [ɹ̠̊˔], for which there are significant perceptual differences.
