/p/
The upper and the lower lips are brought together to obstruct the outflow of air. The spelling symbol for /p/ can be found in – stop, lap, pet, apart. It is therefore called a voiceless bilabial plosive. To produce /p/, there is no vibration of the vocal cords.
/p/ is not pronounced in words like lamp, psalm, receipt, physics.
