Dear friend, glides are sounds produced with little or no obstruction of the airstream that are preceded or followed by a vowel. If they are followed by vowels, they are called on-glides , as in woo, where /w/ is an on-glide. ] is one example.

Dear friend,
glides are sounds produced with little or no obstruction of the airstream that are preceded or followed by a vowel. If they are followed by vowels, they are called on-glides, as in woo, where /w/ is an on-glide. If these sounds are preceded by vowels, they are termed off-glides, all English diphthongs include them: /?/ in cow [ka?]
