FO didn't say it in that thread, but she hears marry, merry and Mary as distinct.

I was trying to get her to pronounce them for me so I could hear the difference, but I felt like someone from Japan trying to hear the difference between lake and rake.

That's the confusing thing. I think (?) we would all agree that the "t" at the end of "dreamt" represents a distinct phoneme from the rest of the word, regardless of its syllable status. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Crawl and 1OOO) http://flyingomelettespalace.yuku.com/sreply/115420 Sat, 28 Mar 2009 17:52:57 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Tumor Syllables ]]> http://flyingomelettespalace.yuku.com/reply/115419/t/Tumor-Syllables.html#reply-115419
Wrecked. Supposedly, one syllable. I can easily divide it up into wreck't.

Do I exaggeratedly slow it down like "wreck - tah"? No, but I don't divide up acknowledged syllables, either. A polysyllabic work like "polysyllabic" still comes out in one smooth pronoucniation.

The word "Syllable" has three syllables. "sil" is one sound, "a" is another sound, "bul" is the third sound. You may not have to open and close your jaw all the way to go from "sil" to "a", but you have to move it somewhat to form the new sound.

The English have no respect for their language, and will not teach their children to speak it. They spell it so abominably that no man can teach himself what it sounds like. It is impossible for an Englishman to open his mouth without making some other Englishman hate or despise him. German and Spanish are accessible to foreigners: English is not accessible even to Englishmen.

The best they can do is give a single example. Almost the entire article (especially the section after the introduction) is completely incomprehensible.
