Dec 16, 2012 at 13:55 | comment | added | Peter Shor | I have two different r's, [ɚ] (found in words like bird and more) and [ɹ] (always found at the beginning of words). They are quite different—for [ɹ], my tongue comes up and nearly touches the roof of my mouth just behind my teeth, while for [ɚ] my tongue remains down, and the sound is made toward the back of my mouth. Which I use after a vowel depends on the following consonant—I say [hɑɚθ] and [hɑɹt] (I think because the tongue's in the right position to use [ɹ] if there's a [t] or [s] afterwards). But it's clear that not everybody does this | |
