So, if a kiss requires labialization, does that mean one can transcribe a kissing sound with [k͡ʘʷ]?  Denelson83  22:47, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Yes, that would be good - assuming the kind of kiss people blow to each other in Hollywood movies. Not all cultures kiss that way. kwami 01:28, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

I suggest merging bullseye (letter) to bilabial click because ʘ is only used as an IPA symbol but not a letter (please correct me if I was wrong)--Hello World! 14:54, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

No opinion, but I believe ʘ is used in provisional orthographies for the three languages in which this click occurs. kwami 18:09, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

I added a reference for the dental variants, but I think I did it wrong. Not sure how to fix, though - can someone take a look at it (Kwami?) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.52.215.14 (talk) 16:01, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Okay, I reworded it somewhat, as L&M were rather opaque. Interesting. I must've read that at one time, but had completely forgotten about it. — kwami (talk) 18:56, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
