Nasal Plosion

At the junction of the plosive consonants [p, b, t, d, k, g] with the nasal sonorants [m, n] the articulation of the sonorant starts when the articulation of the plosive consonant is not yet finished. As a result of this the air stream passes through the nasal cavity producing the effect of nasal plosion. This phenomenon is regarded as one of the cases of assimilation of English consonants, e.g.: shouldn't, wouldn't, garden, Send me a letter.

Sound Drills

Modern, curtain, certain, certainly, couldn't, needn't, apartment, harden, hidden, pardon, ridden, suddenly, Aden, beaten, Britain, button, cotton, forgotten, mutton, rotten, written, blindness, madness, kidney, accurateness, brightness;

good news, tinned meat, cold milk, quite new, at night;

Good morning. Right now. Meet me at six.

Ex. 2 Use the above words and phrases in the reaction to the following:

1 What does the teacher say when she enters the classroom in the morning?

2 What kind of furniture do most people buy when they move to a new flat? 3 I'm afraid we can^’t postpone it. 4 Must I pay anything right now? 5 When shall I meet you tomorrow? 6 What will you have for lunch if you are going to spend the whole day in the forest?

Note:

If a sonorant stands before [d, t] there is no nasal plosion in this case.

E.g.: London, abandon, dependent, fountain, sentence, Southampton, Washington, Lampton.

Lateral Plosion

At the junction of plosive consonants [p, b, t, d, k, g] with the lateral sonorant [l] the plosion is heard during the pronunciation of the sonorant as the air stream passes along the sides of the tongue. This is the case of assimi­lation known as lateral plosion, e.g.: kettle, club, standard-lamp. I don^’t like it.

Sound Drills

Ex. 1 Practice the following words and phrases observing lateral plosion:

Fiddle, medal, muddle, needle, riddle, saddle, cattle, fatal, gentle, metal, settle.
