B. n.
1. A consonantal sound in which the action of the breath is prominently marked; one which is followed by or blended with the sound of H n.(Modern phonologists generally apply the term to a consonantal diphthong consisting of a mute or stop followed by ‘the slipping-out of an audible bit of flatus or aspiration, between the breach of mute-closure and the following sound’ (Whitney), which is believed to be the character of the Sanskrit ‘aspirates,’ and to have been the original value of the Greek χ,θ,ϕ. But the term is also applied in Greek grammar to the current fricative value of these letters; and in the Roman alphabet generally to any modification of sound indicated by the addition of h; e.g. to the Celtic bh, mh (= v, and nasalized v); in Hebrew it has been given to the gutturals, and in other languages it has been used with similar vagueness).
