CaptainSarcastic posted:I know the extraneous "r" in words like "wash" has been mentioned (people who say "dishwarsher" should be euthanized), but has anyone mentioned the weird insertion of a preliminary "h" sound in words like "whale"? I mean it is "whale" not "wale" I tell you what

a hole-y ghost posted:um well uhh technically it's not two separate sounds, it's a voiced velar fricative with rounded lips it's a voiceless rounded bilabial velar glide you doofus! e: on second thought I guess whether a voiceless approximant is a glide or a fricative is meaningless but it's still voiceless eSports Chaebol fucked around with this message at 01:53 on Feb 18, 2017 |

Bogatyr posted:It's 100% shibboleth but if you go to Tempe you might notice the locals emphasize the second syllable. Tem-pee, outside of there I have only heard it spoken like Tempy. are you sure it isn't tem-PAY and the name of a small island near Mombasa because that's what comes to mind when I see it
