A nasal consonant is the part of the manner of articulation in the Malay language. Nasal consonant consisting of bilabial consonant /m/, alveolar consonant /n/, postalveolar consonant /ŋ/ and velar consonant /ŋ/. This paper presents the study of the contact pattern in the production of consonant /m/ using Electropalatography. Nine Malay speakers involved in this study. In detecting the contact pattern during the production of consonant /m/, Reading palate, which consists of 62 electrodes were used. The data were analyzed using Articulate Assist TM Version 1.18. The result indicates that during the production of consonant /m/ there was more contact at the posterior of the hard palate compared to other zones of the palate. Additionally, the Molar Class of the subjects does not affect the pattern production of consonant /m/.
