Voorbeelden van rhotic

• Yet there are striking exceptions: picture has no rhotic ending in seven cases, while actor always has.

• It seems that the rhotic ending is stronger and even exaggerated in monosyllabic words.

• These differences in rhotic length had consequences for the segments' overall realization, as voicing, length, and manner are intimately related.

• Furthermore, such reduced forms are attested in modern rhotic varieties, as the putative loss of final /r/ is not.

• This next set of data shows that only the two central vowels are allowed before a rhotic in an unstressed syllable.

• This is surprising if put in parallel with the next example actor, in which all the endings are rhotic.

• It is never, though, followed by the articulation of a final rhotic consonant.

• Assuming that rhotic preservation correlates with stress preservation, this provides a window on the stress patterns of these words, at least in one dialect.

• However, this is a relatively recent innovation, and our participants reflect the apical rhotic pronunciation that was common in the provinces during the 19th century.

• These learners were thus the most proficient of the four nonnative groups as concerns their mastery of rhotic voicing.

• If we were to find a case where the lateral is opaque and the rhotic is targeted, we would expect the former to manifest the attributes of a lateral fricative.

• Included is a description of the limited set of contrasts in an unstressed syllable closed by a rhotic, and a discussion of the asymmetric pattern in restricted harmony.

• As a consequence, it is likely that learners will not only face problems mastering the articulation of the sounds but also producing the right rhotic in a given context.

• Wheeler offers a systematic description and exemplification of these morphological alternations and their phonological environments (which are somewhat different for the nasal and for the rhotic).

• The realization of the hard rhotic varies significantly across dialects.
