spoluhláskové

spoluhláskový is a Czech adjective meaning "consonantal". It is used to describe sounds, letters, or systems related to consonants. For example, in phonetics, a spoluhláskový zvuk refers to a consonant sound. In linguistics, spoluhláskové písmo might refer to a writing system that primarily uses consonants, such as the ancient Phoenician alphabet or the early Hebrew script, where vowels were often omitted or indicated by diacritics. The term can also be applied to grammatical features or phenomena that involve consonants. For instance, a spoluhlásková skupina is a consonant cluster, a sequence of two or more consonant sounds that occur together without a vowel between them. The concept of spoluhláskový is fundamental to understanding the phonological and orthographic structures of languages, particularly those with alphabetic or abjad writing systems. It distinguishes the role and nature of consonants in speech and writing from that of vowels.
