WHAT DOES VELARISE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Velarization

Velarization is a secondary articulation of consonants by which the back of the tongue is raised toward the velum during the articulation of the consonant. In the International Phonetic Alphabet, velarization is transcribed by one of three diacritics: ▪ A tilde or swung dash through the letter U+0334 ̴ combining tilde overlay covers both velarization and pharyngealization, as in ▪ A superscript gamma U+02E0 ˠ modifier letter small gamma after the letter standing for the velarized consonant, as in ▪ A superscript <w> U+02B7 ʷ modifier letter small w indicates either simultaneous velarization and labialization, as in or, or labialization of a velar consonant, as in. Although electropalatographic studies have shown that there is a continuum of possible degrees of velarization, the IPA offers no way to indicate degrees of velarization, for this difference has not been found to be contrastive in any language. A common example of a velarized consonant is the velarized alveolar lateral approximant.
