"May I ask whose house it is?" were his words, in themselves notable chiefly for the aspirates of undue deliberation. "Not mine, I know; but I'm the son of the house," returned Teddy truculently, "and out you go!" "Are you so sure that it's even your father's house?" inquired Levy with the deadly suavity of which he was capable when he liked. A groan from Mr.
She would have been proud had she known how much Mr. Lancelot was satisfied with her aspirates, which came quite natural. She had only dropped her "h's" temporarily, as one drops country friends in coming to London. Curiously enough, Mary Ann did not regard the new locutions and pronunciations as superseding the old.
Take all the consonants, and classify them in two columns, the aspirates or breath sounds in one column, and the sub-vocals in another. We will give one example of each kind, as made at each point or place of articulation. By the aid of vowels we form syllables, and thus simplify the study, and make it more definite.
"Tired, Joseph, dear?" murmured his mother, regarding him with a mixture of pride and commiseration. "Oh, I'm worn out, that's what I am," he said, as he sank into a chair and regarded the certainly untempting food with an eye of disfavour. "Been hard at it all the evening" he spoke with a Cockney, city accent, and was rather uncertain about his aspirates "I work like a nigger."
"It's a Minehead baker's." "He ought to be given an order, if ever man ought." "An order? For you regular, Miss Neumann-Schultz?" "No, no, the sort you pin on your breast," said Priscilla.

From the point of view of literature Mr. Kipling is a genius who drops his aspirates. From the point of view of life, he is a reporter who knows vulgarity better than any one has ever known it. Dickens knew its clothes and its comedy. Mr. Kipling knows its essence and its seriousness.
In the Kosekin alphabet we have corresponding to them the medials B, G, D. Next we have in the Hebrew the tenues, or thin letters P, K, T. In the Kosekin we have the corresponding aspirates F, Ch, Th. The vowels, liquids, and sibilants need not be regarded just here, for the proof from the mutes is sufficient to satisfy any reasonable man."
Aspirates partly close the opening, which is at once suddenly opened again, as in f, v, etc. Resonants close the mouth, so the sound must find its way out through the nose, as in m, n, ng. The above may be put in tabular form as follows: Articulation Positions. Explosives. Aspirates. Vibrates. Resonants. 1 b, p f, v, w m 2 t, d s, z, l, sch, th n 3 k, g j, ch Palatal r ng 4 h
