Catalan

[edit]

(in Catalan)

These are some of the characteristic features of English pronunciation of native Catalan speakers:

  • High lax vowels /ɪ/ /ʊ/ replaced with their tense counterparts [i] [u] (ex: "fill" and "feel", "put" and "poot" become homophones)
  • Merging of front low vowel /æ/ and back low vowel /ʌ/ replaced with central low [a] (ex: "run" and "ran" become homophones)
  • Merging of /b/ and /v/: pronounced as oclusive [b] when initial or before nasal, as fricative /β/ in most other places, and when final either as voiceless [p] to substitute /b/ or as voiceless fricative [f] to substitute /v/.
  • Merging of /d/ and /ð/: pronounced as oclusive [d] when initial or before nasal, as fricative /ð/ in most other places, and when final either as voiceless [t] to substitute /d/ or as voiceless fricative [θ] to substitute /ð/.
  • /g/ pronounced as fricative /ɣ/ between vowels or glides, and as voiceless [k] when final.
  • Word initial /p/, /t/, /k/ lack the aspiration they have in regular English pronunciation.
  • Epenthetic vowel (typically [ə]) before words beginning with [s] + consonant, (ex: stop pronounced [əsˈtɔp] rather than [stɑp]).
  • /r/ pronounced as a trill, as Scotch or Spanish [r]
  • /h/ pronounced as a velar fricative, as Scotch or Spanish [x]
