Объяснение
When a consonant sound is said, the air meets an obstacle somewhere in the oral cavity — at the lips, the teeth or the tongue. Our language has 24 consonant sounds: b, d, f, g, h, j, dj, k, l, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, v, x, y, z, g‘, sh, ch, ng. Some are written with two letters but are one sound: sh, ch, ng. Pay attention to the pronunciation of consonants: sensing where the air meets the obstacle helps to say a sound correctly. For example, in «b» the air meets an obstacle at the lips, in «t» between the tip of the tongue and the teeth.
