Are they real? I'm starting to think that they are just vowel transitions.

Consonants are analytic phonic groups vowels are synthetic

There's no going back for you now. Unless you learn Polish.

Not a bad guess. I took the spectogram pill actually.

But where does a vowel end and a consonant begin? I feel that consonants are more of a formalist distinction.

Interestingly, vowels are tonal sounds with while consonants aren't. Try singing something using the sound 'ah' and compare it to an attempt with 't'. One has a structured series of harmonics while the other doesn't. It's just vibrations bro

then what about humming? "hmmm hmmm hmm hm hm"

[m] is considered a sonorant. It still has a resonance bar when viewed on a spectogram making it vowel like. Obviously a voiceless variant is different.

Oh shit, a linguistics thread that's actually interesting. My education has finally paid off.
