Varies between dental and alveolar in initial position, whereas the postvocalic /l/ may be postalveolar, especially after back vowels.

l usually represents the sound [l] or some other lateral consonant. Common digraphs include ll , which has a value identical to l in English, but has the separate value voiceless alveolar lateral fricative (IPA [ɬ]) in Welsh, where it can appear in an initial position.
Received Pronunciation has two main allophones of /l/: the clear or plain [l] (the "light L"), and the dark or velarized [ɫ] (the "dark L"). The clear variant is used before vowels when they are in the same syllable, and the dark variant when the /l/ precedes a consonant or is in syllable-final position before silence.
Absement changes as an object remains displaced and stays constant as the object resides at the initial position. It is the first time- integral of the displacement [ 3 ] [ 4 ] (i.e. absement is the area under a displacement vs. time graph), so the displacement is the rate of change (first time- derivative ) of the absement.
In geometry and mechanics, a displacement is a vector whose length is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of a point P undergoing motion. [1] It quantifies both the distance and direction of the net or total motion along a straight line from the initial position to the final position of the point trajectory.

/ɡ/ may be confused with /k/ and /v/ with /f/ in initial position. [27] /l/ may be strongly pharyngealized, even in contexts where the dark l does not normally appear in English. [24] Beginners may insert an epenthetic schwa between /l/ and a following /p, f, m, k/, leading to milk being pronounced as [ˈmɪlək]. [28]
