Velar consonants are sounds you make with the back of your tongue touching the soft palate, also called the velum. It's the fleshy bit at the back of the roof of your mouth, near your uvula (the little dangly thing).

Production:
Raise the back of your tongue up to touch the velum. Airflow is blocked completely for a moment.

Examples in English:
/k/: This is the voiceless velar plosive, the sound at the beginning of "kit" or "cat."
/g/: This is the voiced velar plosive, the sound at the beginning of "game" or the "g" in "going."
/ŋ/: This is the velar nasal, the sound at the end of "sing" or "long." Notice how air can flow out your nose while making this sound.

Other interesting facts:
The sound /k/ is actually one of the most common consonant sound across all human languages! Velar consonants can be influenced by nearby vowels. They might move slightly forward in the mouth (called "fronting") before front vowels like /

i:/ or /ɪ/ or move back (called "retraction") before back vowels like /u/ or /ʊ/.

Some practice tongue twisters:
Kate keeps giving up in the morning
My gran’s going to see the king in the Congo
Can a king conquer a sinking kangaroo
Kick the giggling goblins guarding the gold
Kevin clung to the clinging kangaroo

Conversation about Songkran Festival

こんばんは、Atsushiです。
今日の天気は晴れでした。
今夜の天気は19℃です。

今日はネコについて。
みなさんはネコが好きですか？
それともイヌが好きですか？
両方好きですか？
それとも、両方好きじゃないですか？

私はネコが好きです。
実際、去年の11月ぐらいから、ネコを1匹飼っています。
名前はアメといいます。かわいいです。

私は昔はイヌの方が好きでした。
でも、いつからかネコの方が好きになりました。
ネコは家の外に出ないからあまり人の家の飼い猫に接するときはありませんでした。

でも、先輩の家に行った時に、ネコがいました。そのネコはいつもは他人にはなつかないらしいですが、私にはなついたようです。そんなことがあり、少しずつネコを好きになっていったような気がします。

今は完全にネコ派です。イヌももちろん嫌いではありませんが、猫の方がすきです。

私の家のネコ、アメさんは、私より奥さんの方が大好きで、奥さんのひざの上でよく寝ています。私にはそういうことはめったにしません。

奥さんよりも私の方が一緒にいる時間は長いですが、そういうことはほとんどしません。たぶん、時々、気が向いた時だけ、私のひざの上にすわります。1ヶ月に1回あるかないかですね笑

でも決して私のことを嫌いなわけではないと思います。
たぶん、しらんけど笑


はい、ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
