Tag: MB
Mb (lowercase: mb) is a digraph present in many African languages where it is pronounced (IPA) /m͡b/ or /ᵐb/.
It is also used in Irish to indicate the eclipsis of b and is pronounced [m]; for example ár mbád [ɑːɾ mɑːd̪] “our boat” (cf. [bɑːd̪] “boat”). The Irish digraph is capitalized mB, for example i mBaile Átha Cliath “in Dublin”.
In English, mb is pronounced /m/ when final, as in lamb.
