Lingthusiasm Episode 50: Climbing the sonority mountain from A to P was particularly interesting, introducing linguistic concepts and terms I’d never heard before, such as sonority and mirroring.

“Bnick” contains English sounds, but doesn’t feel very likely as an English word.

@Miraz I love the concept of sonority. I remember the first time I learned about it. It’s such a useful way to categorize phonemes.

@baker That episode opened my eyes to several things, sonority being one of them. A very useful concept.
