: In English, /t/ and /th/ are alveolar sounds.

: The three sets of stops are just plain vs. aspirated.
: There is no voicing.

: plain vs. aspirated vs. voiced.

\r\ in reality
represents several distinct sounds. Before a stress ed vowel \r\
denotes a continuant produced with the tongue tip s lightly behind the
teethridge. This sound is usually voiceless when it follows a
voiceless stop, as in pray, tree, and cram. After a vowel in the
same syllable \r\ is most often a semivowel charact erized by
retroflexion of the tongue tip. The sequences \ar\, \鋜\, \er\, \ir\, \or\,
\ur\, and \&r\ may then be considered diphthongs. I n some speech
the retroflexion of the \r\ occurs throughout the a rticulation of the
vowel, but in other cases the first vowel glides in to a retroflex
articulation. In the latter cases a brief transitio n vowel is sometimes
heard; this variable and nondistinctive glide is no t transcribed in this
book, but is considered implicit in the symbol \r\. In Received
Pronunciation \r\ is sometimes pronounced as a flap in the same
contexts in which \t\ and \d\ occur as flaps in Ame rican English.
(See the section on \t\ below.) Occasionally the fl ap may be heard
after consonants, as in bright and grow. In other d ialects of British
English, particularly Scottish, \r\ may be pronounc ed as an alveolar
trill or as a uvular trill. In some dialects, espec ially those of the
southeastern U.S., eastern New England, New York Ci ty, and
southern England, \r\ is not pronounced after a vow el in the same
syllable. This is often, if somewhat misleadingly, referred to as
r-dropping. In these dialects r is pronounced as a nonsyllabic \&\
when it occurs in these positions or there may be n o sound
corresponding to the r, thus beard, corn, and assur ed may be
pronounced as \'bi&d\, \'ko&n\, and \&-'shu&d\ or, usually with
some lengthening of the vowel sound, as \'bid\, \'k on\, and \&-'shud\.
In car, card, and cart those who do not pronounce \ r\ generally
have a vowel which we would transcribe as \A\, usua lly pronounced
with some lengthening and without a following \&\. (See the sections
on \鋅 and \A\.) The stressed vowel of bird and hur t in r-dropping
speech is similar to the vowel used by r-keepers in the same words
but without the simultaneous raising of the center and/or tip of the
tongue. In the U.S. most speakers of r-dropping dia lects will
pronounce \r\ before consonants in some words or in some contexts.
Because it is determined by the phonetic context, r -dropping is not
explicitly represented in this dictionary; speakers of r-dropping
dialects will automatically substitute the sounds a ppropriate to their
own speech.
\ t \
as in tie, attack, late, later, latter. In some con texts, as when a
stressed or unstressed vowel precedes and an unstre ssed vowel or
\&l\ follows, the sound represented by t or tt is p ronounced in most
American speech as a voiced flap produced by the to ngue tip
tapping the teethridge. In similar contexts the sou nd represented by
d or dd has the same pronunciation. Thus, the pairs ladder and
latter, leader and liter, parody and parity are oft en homophones.
At the end of a syllable \t\ often has an incomplet e articulation with
no release, or it is accompanied or replaced by a g lottal closure.
When \t\ occurs before the syllabic consonant \&n\ as in button
\'b&-t&n\, the glottal allophone is often heard. Th is may reflect a
syllabication of \t\ with the preceding stressed sy llable (i.e.
\'b&t-&n\).
