A uvular-epiglottal consonant is a doubly articulated consonant pronounced by making a simultaneous uvular consonant and epiglottal consonant. An example is the Somali "uvular" plosive /q/, which is actually a voiceless uvular-epiglottal plosive [q͡ʡ], as in [q͡ʡíìq͡ʡ] 'to emit smoke' [1][dead link].
