A fricative articulated with the vocal cords vibrating. Examples of a voiced fricative in English include the phoneme /z/ as in zoo, or /ð/ as in that. Examples in other languages include the sound written 'g' in Dutch representing the uvular voiced fricative /ʁ/, and the postalveolar voiced fricative /ʒ/ as in French rouge. Compare to the unvoiced equivalents /s/, /θ/, /χ/ and /ʃ/ respectively.
