aspirated

Türkçe: soluklu, aspire

1. Pronounced with an audible breath, a brief expulsion of air at the end of the sound. · In English, word-initial single voiceless consonants are aspirated, so that pit is pronounced [pʰɪt] but spit is pronounced [spɪt].
2. In French, describing an initial letter h which, though silent, does not permit liaison or elision with the preceding word. · The h in haine is aspirated, so one says la haine, not l'haine.
