ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Velarization

Velarization is when you make a special sound in the back of your mouth. It's like saying the "ng" sound in "sing" or the "k" sound in "back." You do this by putting the back of your tongue up against the roof of your mouth in the back. This makes the sound deeper and more rich. It might feel a little funny at first, but it's a cool way to make your words sound different!
