!Kung
n.(名词)

用法:
The orthographically unusual word !Kung refers to a language spoken by a group of San in southern Africa. This language and its relatives employ a series of consonants called clicks that are only rarely found outside of this area of Africa. In English, clicks are found only in a few interjections, such as tsk-tsk, which is technically a repeated alveolar click in which the front end of the tongue is pressed up against the alveolar ridge behind the teeth. The exclamation point in !Kung symbolizes a similar click, but with the front part of the blade of the tongue pressed against the palate close to the alveolar ridge. It is thus called a postalveolar click.
不常见但拼法正确的字!Kung指的是一群居住于非洲南部的桑族人所用的语言。这一种语言和其相关语言运用一系列在此区域外十分罕见的子音,称为吸气音。在英语中,吸气音只会在少数的感叹词中见到,例如 tsk-tsk ,它在理论上是重复的齿槽吸气音,将舌头的前根部向牙齿后侧隆起的齿槽推挤以发声。 !Kung 的惊叹号象征着类似的吸气音,但是以舌头前面扁平的部分向接近隆起齿槽的上颚推挤以发声,因此它被称为后齿槽吸气音
