Saw someone describe the plot of Bee Movie the other day as: man cucked by bee. I cannot look at this movie the same anymore.

B F M P V
Edit: sorry, i was counting the ones where one lip and teeth touch as well. B M P
you forgot 'W'
B, P are bilabial plosives. M is a bilabial fricative. F, V are labio-dental fricatives i.e. teeth and one lip.
Here's my man with the real goods. Linguistically these categories explain so many 'weird' spelling shifts between cognates.
bilabial plosives
Sounds like someone's gonna explode a vulva.
How do you pronounce F? Effffpppppthhh?
B M P V W 8-/ I guess I'm weird because my lips touch on the "V"
No they. Because if they do you're making a motorboat sound. Vrb-vrb-vrb-vrb-vrb-vrb-vrb.
I feel like W shouldn't count since it's basically just borrowing from B though.
Same with Y in German
They are: K-I-S-S :-P
B M P W
I'd argue 'f' they don't press hard but they lightly touch
Bro what are you doing with your lips? "F" is top teeth on lower lip.
My front lip is over my teeth when I say it, and it is touching the bottom lip.

Y?
(nvm, y in english has no p)
Mine slightly touch for f
For me (german native speaker, also trainee voice actor), f has my upper teeth on my lower lips while still leaving a gap to the upper lips.
Tho, indeed, if you count a few percent on the sides, it could be counted.
I wouldn't count it; but I see how one could do it
Here i am, mouthing letters in the bathroom stall
I just BMPW'd while taking a shit as well
Reached the letter o and got a surprise from the hole in the wall

"sensed"
Pronouncing the letter, or saying the letter's name?
I get three for the former, and four for the latter.
Pronouncing the letter, or saying the letter's name?
A, George B, Hollis
But seriously, what?
Pronouncing the letter - Ay, bee, cee
Saying the letters name???
The letter "B" is not pronounced "bee", that is how you pronounce the name of the letter. It makes a "buh" sound.
The important one is "W" because if you name the letter, "double yew" your lips will touch. If you pronounce the letter, "wuh wuh," then your lips do not touch.
The other letters are M and P, and your lips touch both saying the name and making the sound the letter represents.
Ohh how it's pronounced in words!
If you pronounce the letter, "wuh wuh," then your lips do not touch.
Your lips don't touch making w in wuh?

W has a 'b' sound in the name, but doesn't when used in a word.
The latter
