Notes
edit- ^ a b c Syllabic consonants are generally transcribed with a vertical line under the consonant letter. Thus button is phonemically /ˈbʌtən/ or /ˈbatən/ and bottle is phonemically /ˈbɒtəl/, /ˈbɑtəl/, or /ˈbɔtəl/.
- ^ a b /θ, ð/ are realized as stops in accents affected by th-stopping, such as Hiberno-English, the New York accent, and South Asian English. They are merged with /f, v/ in accents affected by th-fronting, such as some varieties of Cockney and African American Vernacular English. See Pronunciation of English ⟨th⟩.
- ^ The voiceless velar fricative /x/ is mainly used in Hiberno-English, Scottish, South African and Welsh English. Under the influence of Welsh and Afrikaans, the actual phonetic realization of /x/ in Welsh English and White South African English is uvular [χ], rather than velar [x].[1][2][3] Dialects do not necessarily agree on the exact words in which /x/ appears; for instance, in Welsh English it appears in loanwords from Welsh (such as Amlwch /ˈæmlʊx/), whereas in White South African English it appears only in loanwords from Afrikaans or Xhosa (such as gogga /ˈxɒxə/ 'insect').[1][3]
- ^ This sound may not be a phoneme in H-dropping dialects.
- ^ [4][5][6][7][8]
- ^ The trill exists but is rare, found only in some Scottish, Welsh,[9] South African[10] and Indian[11] dialects. See Pronunciation of English /r/.
