Consonant sound
From Teflpedia
A consonant sound is a speech sound caused by a constriction or closure at some point along the vocal tract.
Contrast vowel sound.
Every syllable is understood to also contain a vowel sound but does not have to include a consonant.
Consonant sounds can be grouped into voiced consonants and unvoiced consonants. They can also be affricates, fricatives, plosives and semi-vowels.
Most English dialects have 24 consonants (counting semivowels /j/ and /w/).
