ReplyDeleteI won't show my incompetence with IPA, but will just say how good it is to see you back at the keyboard, John. Best wishes for a swift and full recovery.

ReplyDelete(I'm not sure how to transcribe my pronunciation of "experience", especially in the first part. I definitely do not say [ɛkspɪəri:əns] This is relevant to Geoff Lindsey's idea that /ɪə/ has disappeared. He needs to work out how to transcribe the start of these words.)
To clarify, when I say "these words", I mean words such as period, serious, hero, delerious. /ɪə/ before /r/ in these words does not become [i:ə].

ReplyDelete(I cheated and used an online translator, but the sentiment needs no translation)
Somehow my earlier attempt to reply to this seems to have vanished into the ether, so I'll try again. The online translator appears to have assumed Reading (the town) rather than reading (the verb). But the sentiment is of course still perfectly clear.

DeleteI am sorry to learn about your stroke and hope you recover completely (many people do).
ReplyDeleteI was intrigued that you say "lɑːs wiːk" instead of "lɑːst wiːk". Recently our choir sang an African-American gospel song and the director said that to be faithful to the source we shouldn't pronounce the t in such a situation because African American singers drop some final consonants. I can attest that that is true; I grew up in the segregated south (of the USA) many years ago and I myself wouldn't have pronounced the "t" in "last week" (I am white). When I found myself in a northern college I became ashamed of that and have worked on pronouncing final consonants. I couldn't bring myself to do what the choir director suggested.
When I sing I pronounce final consonants quite exaggeratedly, but that is what choir directors want.

DeleteJust a mistake, now corrected.
DeleteOh. (It is a tiny bit unpleasant to notice, but you have to correct it again, for a different reason.)

ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear the stroke, but relieved you had escaped the worst case and was recovering. I hope you get well, as soon as possible.
ReplyDeletethough living far away from U.K. I have always appreciated for what you did to us, educating, creating the great community of friends with your exceptional knowledge and kindness.
Best wishes
Wishing you a speedy recovery from here in South Carolina!
ReplyDelete'... will be sporadic until I recover'
ReplyDeleteWell, the do make up you mind to recover soon, won't you? (wishing you that from here in [gdaj̃sk])
sorry the tilda should be over [j] rather than [s] of course, I don't know how it got misplaced.
DeleteThe tilda is shown here fine, on the j. Perhaps you're using an old font?
DeleteI'm very very happy to have you back at work -quite an experience you had!
ReplyDeleteIt must be a bit hard to deal with most of us (including myself of course), so just concentrate on building up your strength :)
