Line 9 ⟶ 14:
'''Labialization''' is a [[Secondary articulation|secondary articulatory]] feature of sounds in some languages. Labialized sounds involve the lips while the remainder of the [[Human mouth|oral cavity]] produces another sound. The term is normally restricted to [[consonant]]s. When vowels involve the lips, they are called [[roundedness|rounded]].
The most common labialized consonants are [[Labialized velar consonant|labialized velars]]. Most other labialized sounds also have simultaneous [[velarization]], and the process may then be more precisely called '''labio-velarization'''. The "labialization" of bilabial consonants often refers to '''protrusion''' instead of a secondary articulatory feature [[velarization]]. {{IPA|[pʷ]}} doesn't mean {{IPA|[pˠ]}} although {{IPA|[w]}} refers to a [[labial–velar approximant]].
In [[phonology]], labialization may also refer to a type of [[Assimilation (linguistics)|assimilation]] process.
Line 17 ⟶ 22:
Labialization is the most widespread secondary articulation in the world's languages. It is phonemically contrastive in [[Northwest Caucasian languages|Northwest Caucasian]] (e.g. [[Adyghe language|Adyghe]]), [[Athabaskan languages|Athabaskan]], and [[Salishan languages|Salishan]] [[language family|language families]], among others. This contrast is reconstructed also for [[Proto-Indo-European language|Proto-Indo-European]], the common ancestor of the [[Indo-European languages]]; and it survives in [[Latin language|Latin]] and some [[Romance languages]]. It is also found in the [[Cushitic languages|Cushitic]] and [[Ethiopian Semitic languages|Ethio-Semitic]] languages.
[[American English]] labializes {{IPA|/r, ʃ, ʒ, tʃ, dʒ/}} to various degrees.{{cn|date=July 2024}}
A few languages, including [[Arrernte language|Arrernte]] and [[Mba language|Mba]], have contrastive labialized forms for almost all of their consonants.
In many [[Salishan languages]], such as [[Klallam language|Klallam]], velar consonants only occur in their labialized forms (except /k/, which occurs in some loanwords). However, uvular consonants occur abundantly labialized and unrounded.

Line 57 ⟶ 71:
In the [[Northwest Caucasian languages]] as well as some [[Australian languages]] rounding has shifted from the vowels to the consonants, producing a wide range of labialized consonants and leaving in some cases only two phonemic vowels. This appears to have been the case in Ubykh and [[Eastern Arrernte]], for example. The labial vowel sounds usually still remain, but only as allophones next to the now-labial consonant sounds.
