			== Pronouns and Clitics ==

			This page illustrates some (synchronic) irregularities in English pronoun+clitic combinations. This focusses mainly on cliticised forms of "to be" and "to have" in Australian English. The IPA scheme used is Wikipedia's.

			(Diachronically, most of these irregularities are expected, particularly when the expected forms are not ever found.)

			An ''E'' in the Actual column means the Expected forms are also found. When unstressed, one expects to find vowels shortened or merged with /ə/. Such forms aren't shown unless they occur too when stressed.

			/ɔ ɔː/ in the table below are in two different places. This is because they could be considered in either position. /ɔ/ is open-mid rather than close-mid like the other mid vowels, and it is very laxly rounded, if rounded at all. /ɔː/ is used only in the word "gone" [gɔːn]. It's not an allophonic variation of /ɔ/ or /oː/. It's worth noting that if we consider /ɔ(:)/ unrounded, then all unrounded vowels have long/short pairs, and rounded vowels are long, aside from /u/, which doesn't contrast with a unrounded vowel.
