/m/		The lips are together.			The air comes out of the nose. There is no flow of air through the mouth.	The vocal cords vibrate.
/p/	Place the tip of your tongue behind your upper front teeth, or slightly below them, so that the air is completely blocked in the oral cavity.	Round your lips tightly, creating a seal to prevent any air from escaping through your mouth.	Keep your jaw relatively tense and stable, without any movement.	The teeth should not be involved in the production of this sound.	Build up air pressure behind the blockage created by your tongue and lips, and then release the air suddenly by popping open the lips, causing a burst of air to be expelled.	Do not use your vocal cords to produce this sound, as it is an unvoiced sound.
