The word "drenges" is spelled with the letter combination "-nges", which represents two distinct consonant sounds: /ŋ/ and /s/. The first consonant, /ŋ/, is a velar nasal sound made by touching the back of the tongue to the soft palate. The second consonant, /s/, is an unvoiced alveolar sibilant sound made by forcing air through a narrow gap between the teeth. Together, these sounds create the unique pronunciation of "drenges", which means "of or relating to boys" in Danish.
