voiceless palatal plosive

{{Infobox IPA

|above = Voiceless alveolo-palatal plosive

|ipa symbol = c̟

|ipa symbol2 = t̠ʲ

}}

If distinction is necessary, the voiceless alveolo-palatal plosive may be transcribed as {{angbr IPA|c̟}} (advanced {{angbr IPA|c}}) or {{angbr IPA|t̠ʲ}} (retracted and palatalized {{angbr IPA|t}}), but these are essentially equivalent, because the contact includes both the blade and body (but not the tip) of the tongue. The equivalent X-SAMPA symbols are c_+ and t_-' or t_-_j, respectively. There is also a non-IPA letter {{unichar|0236}}; {{color|gray|{{angbr IPA|ȶ}}}} ("t", plus the curl found in the symbols for alveolo-palatal sibilant fricatives {{angle brackets|{{IPA link|ɕ}}, {{IPA link|ʑ}}}}), which is used especially in sinological circles.

It is common for the phonetic symbol {{angbr IPA|c}} to be used to represent voiceless postalveolar affricate {{IPA|[t͡ʃ]}} or other similar affricates, for example in the Indic languages. This may be considered appropriate when the place of articulation needs to be specified and the distinction between plosive and affricate is not contrastive.

There is also the voiceless post-palatal plosiveInstead of "post-palatal", it can also be called "retracted palatal", "backed palatal", "palato-velar", "pre-velar", "advanced velar", "fronted velar" or "front-velar". For simplicity, this article uses only the term "post-palatal". in some languages, which is articulated slightly more back compared with the place of articulation of the prototypical palatal consonant, though not as back as the prototypical velar consonant. The International Phonetic Alphabet does not have a separate symbol for that sound, though it can be transcribed as {{angbr IPA|c̠}} (retracted {{angbr IPA|c}}) or {{angbr IPA|k̟}} (advanced {{angbr IPA|k}}). The equivalent X-SAMPA symbols are c_- and k_+, respectively.

Especially in broad transcription, the voiceless post-palatal plosive may be transcribed as a palatalized voiceless velar plosive ({{angbr IPA|kʲ}} in the IPA, k' or k_j in X-SAMPA).

Features of the voiceless palatal stop:

{{plosive}}

{{palatal}}

• The otherwise identical post-palatal variant is articulated slightly behind the hard palate, making it sound closer to the velar {{IPAblink|k}}.
• Alveolo-palatal variant is articulated also with the blade of the tongue at or behind the alveolar ridge.
