Note: This article is NOT about the initial consonant mutation, in this wiki the term Aspiration is used in it's technical linguistic sense: Aspiration is a puff of air that accompanies the production of some consonant sounds. This puff can be felt by holding your hand (or a tissue) just in front of your lips as you produce the sound.
