The voiced retroflex implosive is a type of consonantal sound. Wadiyara Koli phonemically distinguishes it from the alveolar / ɗ/. Sindhi has an implosive that varies between dental and retroflex articulation, while Oromo, Saraiki and Ngad'a have /ᶑ / but not /ɗ/. [1]
The 'implicit' symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet is ⟨ ᶑ ⟩ (a D with a tail for retroflex and a hook-top for implosive). [2] [3]
