W still leaves an opening tho
8 3 ReplyThey're probably pronouncing it as "Double-U"...
19 1 ReplyIt doesn't say "no opening", it just says "lips touch". My lips can touch without completely closing.

Bruh what are you smoking? My lips don't touch for W. They don't even move half the time.

That's wrong! There are only three bilabial letters! P, M, and B. F and V are labiodental
45 4 ReplyW
13 2 ReplyThat's labial velar approximate. We don't say "bwatermelon" just because the letter is pronounced with a B

I don't know what that means but it reminds me of the movie Teeth.
7 0 ReplyThese indicate place of articulation of the sound that come out of your mouth. It's one of 3 main ways to categorize consonants in linguistics, or more precisely in phonetics.
Bilabial consonants are made when both lips are touching for example, while labiodental consonants are made when lower lips are touching upper teeth.

Pronouncing the letter, or saying the letter's name?
I get three for the former, and four for the latter.
29 0 ReplyThe latter
14 0 ReplyPronouncing the letter, or saying the letter's name?
A, George B, Hollis
But seriously, what?
Pronouncing the letter - Ay, bee, cee
Saying the letters name???
3 1 ReplyThe letter "B" is not pronounced "bee", that is how you pronounce the name of the letter. It makes a "buh" sound.
The important one is "W" because if you name the letter, "double yew" your lips will touch. If you pronounce the letter, "wuh wuh," then your lips do not touch.
The other letters are M and P, and your lips touch both saying the name and making the sound the letter represents.
11 3 ReplyW has a 'b' sound in the name, but doesn't when used in a word.

Saying their name I get zero.
1 1 ReplySay "B, M, P" without closing your mouth.

I fucking checked, too.
14 0 ReplySaw someone describe the plot of Bee Movie the other day as: man cucked by bee. I cannot look at this movie the same anymore.
12 0 ReplyOnly one letter of the English alphabet has more than one syllable, and it has three.
11 0 ReplyWe should have named it u-two or to be more shape accurate, v-2.
4 0 ReplyIf you were wondering, it got named "double u" when u and v were the same letter, V was used at the beginning of words and u ain the middle/end. It wasn't till much later they were seperated into 2 glyphs for different sounds.

V.
1 2 ReplyYour lips don't touch for V, it's your top teeth to your bottom lip. If your lips touched, it'd be B.

I feel like W shouldn't count since it's basically just borrowing from B though.

Something I noticed the other day. At least in the later seasons, the South Park lip sync matches the dialog so accurately, the mouth model shows the tongue only when the character is saying an L syllable

I counted and my lips touch on B, F, M, P, W,
Edit: it's actually 6 since Lips briefly touch for V
7 4 ReplyMy lips definitely don't touch on F or V, my upper teeth just touch my lower lip but upper lip is safe from contact.
32 0 ReplyIf your lips actually touch for f and v you're saying them wrong lmao, it's not "epp" and "bee" it's "eff" and "vee." As everyone else already said, your lips don't touch, but your lower teeth should be touching your upper lip.
13 1 ReplyWell, I've never said eff as many times in a row as I have today now. Thanks.

Tell us you have a speach impediment without telling us you have a speach impediment.
9 1 ReplyEhh, V feels more like my bottom lip touching my teeth, not the lip
6 0 ReplyI'm sure accent and dialect (within English) matter a lot.
For F my lips come close but blow out before touching. For V they come close but it's my top teeth that touch my lip.
4 0 ReplyW is because you say the name of the letter. If you were to produce the sound that the W is associated with, you won't touch lips.
And I agree with the others, F and V are the lower lip meeting the upper teeth.

Edit: sorry, i was counting the ones where one lip and teeth touch as well. B M P
2 2 ReplyB, P are bilabial plosives. M is a bilabial fricative. F, V are labio-dental fricatives i.e. teeth and one lip.
