Creaky-voiced glottal approximant
Consonantal sound represented by ⟨ʔ̞⟩, ⟨ʔ̰⟩ or ⟨ʔ̬⟩ in IPA
The creaky-voiced glottal approximant is a consonant sound in some languages. In the IPA, it is transcribed as ⟨ʔ̞⟩, ⟨ʔ̰⟩, or ⟨ʔ̬⟩.[1] It involves tension in the glottis and diminution of airflow, compared to surrounding vowels, but not full occlusion.
