[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...”

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 -

Consonants Need Vowels?
I remember being told that consonants need vowels by one of my elementary school teachers. I remember repeating this to my oldest sister, Lynda, after she had a kid or two.
Lynda said no you don’t need a vowel sound to make a consonant sound. You can just say Boo [as in book] or Foo [as in foot], for the B and F sounds. Notice that I had to use vowels to illustrate my point. But I never caught on to that at the time.
So I remember pre talking with her babies and using what I thought were just consonant sounds to get them to the point where they could almost speak. A couple months later they were speaking.
The short oo sound is the “invisible” vowel in English. It is the u in pull and bull. And the vowel that is between the T and L in cattle and bottle. It may seem invisible at first, but it is definitely there. I don’t blame my sister or me for not realizing it was a vowel, because shows like Electric Company would use this “invisible” vowel to sound out words.
For instance they would say Boo A Doo when sounding out the word Bad. Then they would say the three letter names closer and closer together until magically the oo sound disappeared and they said Bad.
When I realized this, I thought for years that what I was originally told was correct. Consonants need vowels.
That is until I saw mmmm written out one day and I forced myself to think about this. So it became consonants need vowels except m.
Then I thought of a few more. Ssss doesn’t need a vowel. Neither does zzzz. There are also Shhhh and Zhhhh. (If you’re wondering what sound zh is, it’s the g in mirage, the s in leisure. In school I was taught that it was the soft g sound.)
Anyhow, that’s five exceptions to the consonants need vowels rule. Do you have any more?

Curious: Does your #language allow words or entire sentences that have no #vowels?

🇨🇿 #Czech:
- ✅ words without vowels
- ✅ sentences without vowels -
Supercool video about how vowels in our speech/language are not really distinct entities but rather things that lie on a spectrum (or really several spectrums) like... colors!

I just noticed, he says #India - not #भारत - even though it's mostly not in #English
https://youtube.com/shorts/YLfj2Kn6Ysk
What's the other #language ?
I recognise chai and a couple of numbers, but those are in a few languages?
I switched my keyboard to write one word to avoid deciding which #Latin #vowels to use.
I think the reason I've learned 5 other #alphabets and #abjads is mostly to avoid Latin vowels as much as possible in the most pretentious way possible.

I've really got to read up on #LondonEnglish. My participants are doing the most unexpected things with their #vowels (and consonants to some extent) I'm experiencing all kinds of perceptual confusion.
