The release is a noisy, affricate-like sound. Clicks may be oral or nasal, which means that the airflow is either restricted to the mouth, or passes through the nose as well. They are central consonants, which means they are produced by releasing the airstream at the center of the tongue, rather than at the sides.
Palatal myoclonus is a rare condition in which there are rhythmic jerky movements or a rapid spasm of the palatal (roof of the mouth) muscles. Chronic clonus is often due to lesions of the central tegmental tract (which connects the red nucleus to the ipsilateral inferior olivary nucleus). [citation needed]
The forward place of articulation is broad, with the tongue flat against the roof of the mouth from the alveolar ridge to the palate. The release is a sharp, plosive sound.

Owh (I'm sleepy) – An infant uses the sound reflex "Owh" to communicate that they are tired. The sound is produced much like an audible yawn.
