## Features

### Air Flow

| Feature | Symbol | Name | Description |
|---------|--------|------------|--------------------------------------------------------|
| `egs` | ↑ | egressive | The air flow is moving outwards from the initiator. |
| `igs` | ↓ | ingressive | The air flow is moving inwards towards the initiator. |

Each base IPA phoneme specifies an air flow type. The ↑ and ↓ symbols are from
the extended IPA<sup>\[<a href="#ref7">7</a>\]</sup>. They only need to be used
when the air flow is different to the base IPA phoneme (e.g. using ↓ on
pulmonic consonants).

### Consonants

#### Voicing
