mellékhangzóképzk
Mellékhangzóképzk is a term used in linguistics, particularly in Hungarian phonology, to describe a type of consonant sound that is characterized by a secondary articulation. This means that in addition to the primary place and manner of articulation, there is an additional modification of the airflow caused by the tongue interacting with another part of the vocal tract. The most common types of mellékhangzóképzk involve palatalization or labialization. Palatalized consonants, often transcribed with a superscript 'j' (e.g., /tʲ/), are produced with the body of the tongue raised towards the hard palate, creating a "y"-like quality. Labialized consonants, sometimes indicated with a superscript 'w' (e.g., /tʷ/), involve rounding of the lips simultaneously with the primary articulation. These secondary articulations can change the phonetic quality of a consonant and play a significant role in distinguishing words in languages that utilize them. The precise phonetic realization and phonological function of mellékhangzóképzk vary depending on the specific language.
