Labial–uvular consonants are doubly articulated consonants that occur at two places of articulation, the lips and the uvula. They have been attested in Lese, a Mangbutu-Efe language spoken in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda. [1] [2] [3]
One labial–uvular stop is attested, [q͡p], and it is present in the Lese language, occurring as an allophone of /q͡ɓ/, which is mostly likely another labial–uvular stop with significant lowering and a strong release. [1] [2] The standard labial–uvular stop is also found in Iha. [4] [5]
