Ayin-intrusion

Exaggerated sulcalization of R-colored vowels in a posh non-rhotic accent becomes pharyngealization; linking R becomes linking ayin. An advanced version substitutes [ʔ] for linking /ʕ/.

• THOUGHT = START = BATH = PALM = [ɑ:ˁ(ʕ)~ä:ˁ(ʕ)]
• SQUARE = NURSE = [æ:ˁ(ʕ)]
• NEAR = [ɛ:ˁ(ʕ)]
• POOR = NORTH = FORCE = [ɔ:ˁ(ʕ)]
• lettER = commA = [ä(ʕ)]
• happY = [e(j)]
• KIT = [i]
• DRESS = [e]
• TRAP = [a]
• FOOT = [ʊ]
• LOT = [ɔ~o~ʌ]
• STRUT = [ɨ]
• FLEECE = [i:]
• FACE = [əɪ]
• PRICE = [æɪ]
• GOOSE = [u:]
• GOAT = [əʊ]
• MOUTH = [ɑʊ]
