    [as a kiwi, and after seeing the ‘scone’ pronunciation in particular, I do wonder how this might translate down to the antipodes; as a barman working in London in my (much) younger days – because we all do! 😉 – hearing the huge variety of accents from a relatively small country – but with a rich history of course – was glorious, still is to me! I am also curious how people trying to ‘not to be common’ & hence trying pretentiously to emulate the Received Pronunciation (RP) / BBC English – and failing - plays into this… Now say the letter “H” out loud, if you said “aitch" then that is you 😉 :* 😊 )
    “Eight maps to show how the differences in how vowels are pronounced in Britain and Ireland… These are just some of the many, many regional differences in the complex and varied accents and dialects of these [British Isles]…”

    “… The diversity of English dialects in the United Kingdom is enormous.
    It’s common for people from either side of a river, mountain, or even town to speak noticeably different ways, with particular features that immediately mark someone out as being from a specific area, to those who have an ear for it.
    This is pretty normal in any large region that has been speaking a language continually for 1600 years. You will find the same thing in Germany, Norway, France, and countless other countries. Languages evolve over time, and physical distance between regions means that new features often spread slowly, leading to dialectal differences. Sometimes these differences are small, and only easily recognised by people from the relevant region. Other times there are very clear distinctions, with neighbouring dialects sounding almost like different languages to those unaccustomed to them...”

  11. So, did the letter “y” form out of the letters “ij”?

    Evidence:
    - they would both sound “eeyy”
    - in “free”, “ee” might be English substitute for “y”
    - in “free”, “ij” might be English substitute for “ij”
    - “ÿ” can look exactly like “ij” in cursive
