Now, a good vowel definition, in terms of pronunciation, is that the articulators hold a shape but they don't actually touch.

那么，就而言，元的定义：器官保持个形状，但实际上并不接触。

Now, just before I give you some examples, just to be clear that the articulators are the tongue, and lips, and teeth, and hard and soft palate.

Now, a good consonant definition, in term of pronunciation, is that with consonants, the articulators either touch or they come are very, very close to one another.

器要么接触，要么彼此非常接近。

Now, we do have 3 consonants that don't follow that rule exactly, in fact, they don't touch, the articulators don't touch with these three consonants, instead the articulators approximate with one another.

我们有三个辅没有完全遵守这个规则，事实上，在那三个的时候器官并不接触，而彼此非常接近。

So, in answer to your question, 'what is a vowel', well, a good definition is that vowels are made with the articulators holding a shape but not actually touching.

所以，要回答你的问题：“什么元”，个很好的定义器官保持个形状，但实际上并没有接触。

Well, a good definition of consonance sounds is that it is a sound whereby the articulators either touch or almost touch and then releasing suddenly or slowly or they hold their position.

辅的定义就器官要么接触，要么彼此非常接近，然后突然或缓慢地释放声，或者保持它们的位置。

And with the OO vowel sound, as in 'who', 'shoe' and 'move', the lips are rounded and the back of the tongue is high but again, nothing actually touches, it just, the articulators just hold a shape.

单词“who”，“shoe”和“move”中的 OO ，嘴唇张成圆形，舌头背面抬高，同样没有触碰，器官只保持个形状。
