    This document discusses the classification of consonant speech sounds. Consonants are sounds produced with obstructed or constricted airflow. They are classified based on three factors: place of articulation (where the obstruction occurs), manner of articulation (how the airflow is obstructed), and voicing (whether the vocal cords vibrate). Examples are given of different consonant types classified by these factors, including stops, fricatives, nasals, affricates, and approximants.
