Voiceless palatal lateral fricative

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Bura language of the Chadic family has a voiceless palatal lateral fricative that contrasts with both a voiceless alveolar lateral fricative and a palatal lateral approximant. In addition, Dahalo and Hadza have both voiceless and ejective palatal lateral affricates, and Iraqw may be similar.

The IPA has no dedicated symbol for this sound. The devoicing and raising diacritics may be used with <ʎ> to represent it. However, the "belt" on the existing symbol for a voiceless lateral fricative, <ɬ>, forms the basis for occasional ad hoc symbols for the other lateral fricatives, the third one representing the palatal lateral fricative:

Such symbols are rare, but are becoming more common now that font-editing software has become accessible. Note however that since they are not sanctioned by the IPA, there are no Unicode values for them.
