Puttenham, in the time of Elizabeth I of England, wished to start from Elissabet Anglorum Regina ( Elizabeth Queen of the English ), to obtain Multa regnabis ense gloria ( By thy sword shalt thou reign in great renown ); he explains carefully that H is " a note of aspiration only and no letter ", and that Z in Greek or Hebrew is a mere SS.

In phonetics, aspiration is the strong burst of air that accompanies either the release or, in the case of preaspiration, the closure of some obstruents.

The diacritic for aspiration in the International Phonetic Alphabet ( IPA ) is a superscript " h ", ⟨⟩.

The term " aspiration " is sometimes also used for the replacement of a ( usually fricative ) consonant with an sound, but that process is more accurately termed debuccalization.

Voiceless aspiration occurs when the vocal cords remain open after a consonant is released.
