## Consonants
This document is grouped into two sections. The first section displays the IPA
charts using the feature names instead of their names, showing the IPA phoneme
at that position in the chart. This makes it easier to look up the features for
a given IPA phoneme.

### Pulmonic
The second section lists the features and their associated name. This section
does not describe what these mean. Their meaning is described in phonetics
articles, books and Wikipedia. The Wikipedia IPA<sup>\[<a href="#ref4">4</a>\]</sup>
article can be used as a starting point, as it links to topics and descriptions
of the various phonemes.
