The language has both uvular consonant and bilabial clicks.

The dental, lateral, and bilabial clicks are rarely confused.

Bilabial clicks are sometimes considered to be labial-velar consonants as well, though the validity of this classification is debated.

Voiced bilabial clicks only occur in the Tuu and Kx'a families of southern Africa.

The labial or bilabial clicks are a family of click consonants that sound something like a smack of the lips.

Bilabial clicks (International Phonetic Alphabet)

Heine & Honken (2010) reconstruct six click families for Kx'a: the five that occur in the most conservative dialects of ǃKung, plus the bilabial clicks of ǂHoan.

The Tuu languages, along with ǂHõã, are known for being the only languages in the world to have bilabial clicks as distinctive speech sounds, apart from the extinct ritual jargon Damin of northern Australia.

However, bilabial clicks are found paralinguistically for a kiss in various languages, and as allophones of labialâ€"velar stops in some West African languages (Ladefoged 1968), as of /mw/ in some of the languages neighboring Shona, such as Ndau and Tonga.
