1. IN THIS PROJECT DEVELOP THE NASAL SOUND NUMBER THREE: THE VELAR NASAL CONSONANT

2. CHARACTERISTICS:
A velar sound. The back of the tongue closes against the soft palate. The closure is further forward if it follows on from a front vowel. The soft palate is lowered, and air passes out through the nasal cavity. /ŋ/ is voiced.

3. OTHER CHARACTERISTICS
The consonant /ŋ/ is phonetically simple but phonologically complex.
Phonetically, it is simple because it is no more difficult to produce than /n/ or /m/.
Phonologically, it is difficult because it is not easy to describe the context in which in occurs.
/ŋ/ does not occur as an initial position.
