Here i am, mouthing letters in the bathroom stall

[-] thefartographer@lemm.ee 28 points 8 months ago

Reached the letter o and got a surprise from the hole in the wall

I am also taking a shit and mouthing letters bro

[-] DAMunzy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 8 months ago

I too am delaying the wipe!

[-] bobs_monkey@lemm.ee 5 points 8 months ago

I just BMPW'd while taking a shit as well

[-] uphillbothways@kbin.social 71 points 8 months ago

They also touch when you just shut the hell up.

[-] grandkaiser@lemmy.world 43 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

That's wrong! There are only three bilabial letters! P, M, and B. F and V are labiodental

[-] grandkaiser@lemmy.world 21 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

That's labial velar approximate. We don't say "bwatermelon" just because the letter is pronounced with a B

[-] ji17br@lemmy.ml 7 points 8 months ago

What? Can you say the word double without your lips touching? I can’t

[-] kamen@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

doubleyouatermelon

[-] jpeps@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

You're right about how you would refer to each sound in use but the meme doesn't say that there are 4 bilabials

I don't know what that means but it reminds me of the movie Teeth.

I feel like double u is cheating since that's just b again.

[-] Siethron@lemmy.world 11 points 8 months ago

I'd argue 'f' they don't press hard but they lightly touch

[-] Soggy@lemmy.world 34 points 8 months ago

Bro what are you doing with your lips? "F" is top teeth on lower lip.

[-] agent_flounder@lemmy.world 18 points 8 months ago

W still leaves an opening tho

[-] Ephera@lemmy.ml 19 points 8 months ago

They're probably pronouncing it as "Double-U"...

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

well it only touches at the B sound and we already had B so...

[-] bennel@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago

How else is it pronounced?

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 6 points 8 months ago

as a phoneme, it's a bilabial approximant - meaning the lips form the sound by moving close but not touching and then parting again

compare to the palatal approixmant /y/ formed by the root of the tongue performing a similar action with the soft palate.

Pronouncing the letter, or saying the letter's name?

I get three for the former, and four for the latter.

Saw someone describe the plot of Bee Movie the other day as: man cucked by bee. I cannot look at this movie the same anymore.

[-] Subverb@lemmy.world 11 points 8 months ago

Only one letter of the English alphabet has more than one syllable, and it has three.

Behold, the bilabials

[-] uis@lemmy.world 8 points 8 months ago

What is last one? B, m, p are obvious.

[-] shasta@lemm.ee 14 points 8 months ago
[-] uis@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago

When wording worries without end. No. Didn't close even once.

[-] ReveredOxygen@sh.itjust.works 9 points 8 months ago

I took it as meaning the names. The b in double-u has your lips touch

I feel like W shouldn't count since it's basically just borrowing from B though.

[-] x4740N@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Its 5

I counted and my lips touch on B, F, M, P, W,

Edit: it's actually 6 since Lips briefly touch for V

[-] TheSambassador@lemmy.world 31 points 8 months ago

My lips definitely don't touch on F or V, my upper teeth just touch my lower lip but upper lip is safe from contact.

[-] Tier1BuildABear@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago

If your lips actually touch for f and v you're saying them wrong lmao, it's not "epp" and "bee" it's "eff" and "vee." As everyone else already said, your lips don't touch, but your lower teeth should be touching your upper lip.

Ehh, V feels more like my bottom lip touching my teeth, not the lip
