/m/

The /m/ sound in English is a voiced bilabial nasal, which means it’s a sound made by closing both lips and allowing the air to pass through the nose, with vibration of the vocal cords. Here’s how you pronounce it:

• Position your lips: The /m/ sound is bilabial, which means it’s made by closing both lips.
• Voicing: The /m/ sound is a voiced consonant, meaning your vocal cords vibrate when you produce this sound. You should feel a vibration if you lightly touch the front of your throat while saying the sound.
• Release the sound: Start by closing your lips and allowing the air to pass through your nose, producing the /m/ sound. The air should flow out continuously.
