Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This statement is true. Languages belonging to the Iroquoian family, such as Mohawk, Cayuga, Seneca, and Oneida, do not have any bilabial stops, which are consonant sounds produced by closing the lips completely (such as "p" and "b"). Instead, they have sounds that are articulated using other parts of the mouth, such as the alveolar ridge or the velum.
