semi-vowel (n.)
A term used in the classification of CONSONANT sounds on the basis of their MANNER OF ARTICULATION: it refers to a sound functioning as a consonant but lacking the PHONETIC characteristics normally associated with consonants (such as FRICTION or CLOSURE); instead, its QUALITY is phonetically that of a VOWEL; though, occurring as it does at the MARGINS of a SYLLABLE, its DURATION is much less than that typical of vowels. The common examples in English are [w] and [j], as in wet and yet respectively. Some phoneticians refer to these sounds as a type of APPROXIMANT.
