M Words

The M sound is a voiced bilabial nasal sound. To produce the M sound, place the lips gently together, turn on your vocal folds, and allow the air to pass through your nose. You should feel a slight vibration in your nose when you say the M sound.

The M sound should be acquired by the time a child is 2-3 years old. The M sound is often one of the first sounds a baby produces when babbling.

Words with M

Below you will find a list of over 100 M words sorted by initial, medial, and final position and syllable count (1, 2, or 3+ syllables). Aim to practice saying each word correctly at least 5+ times, focusing on the correct production of the M sound.
