I have heard <i>Innernet</i> but don't say it myself; <i>twenty, plenty</i> have simple nasal stops, <i>center, dental, Internet, winter</i> have the nasalized flap.<br /><br /><i>Antarctic</i> is a special case in more ways than one. Americans who say it with the (historically correct) pronunciation <i>Antartic</i> (from Old French <i>antartique</i>, cf. modern Italian <i>antartico</i>) seem to me to syllabicate it <i>an-tart-ic</i>, so that the first /t/ is aspirated and therefore not subject to any reductions.John Cowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11452247999156925669noreply@blogger.com
