/wh/ as in wheel (/wh/),

/w/ as in window (/w/)

/y/ as in yo-yo

.Consonant Phonemes (sounds): Glides - ANSWER-Note that for /wh/ and /w/ some
linguistics focus on the tongue retraction to the back of the throat.

However the more obvious future is the rounding of the lips when articulating these
sounds.
