My versions of JNW's strange words.

(Headings and order are based strictly on JNW's page.)

Footnotes:

  • * Phonemically equivalent to JNW’s version
  • † JNW’s version is irregular and unusual
  • ‡ My version is irregular and unusual

[ʌ]

  • strawberry† - [stʃɹoːbɹi], [stʃɹoːbɹi]‡
  • wash† - [wɔʃ]
  • Washington† - [ˈwɔʃɪŋtən]
  • squash† - [skwɔʃ]

[ɛ]

  • catch‡ - [kʰætʃ]
  • that‡ - [ðæt], [ðət]

[ʌj]

(In this section, I won't mark equivalence or divergence as it's a split. Note that the two versions imd are just allophones caused by a following voiceless consonant; this behavior is very common imd and I don't show it or comparble non-phonemic cases in other sections.)

  • eyes - [ɑˑez]
  • bide - [bɑˑed]
  • ice - [ɑes]
  • bite - [bɑet]
    • Idaho, Ida [ɑˑe]
    • cider, spider [ɑˑe]
    • icon [ɑe], nikon [ɪ], daikon [ɑe]
    • cyclops, psycho [ɑe]
    • life [lɑef] → lives [lɑˑevz]
  • high, high school [ɑˑe]
  • ‘I scream’ [ɑˑe], ‘icecream’ [ɑe]

[Æ]

(Again, it's hard to make a claim of eqivalence or divergence due to the split/merger in JNW's English.)

  • before /l, r/
    • ail, ale - [æijəɫ]
    • Al - [æːɫ]
    • trailer (both senses) - [tʃɹæilɐ]
    • mailing/Maling - [mæilɪŋ]
    • Beowulf - [bæiwʊf], [beː-], [bɪi-]
    • nightmare - [ˈnɑetmeː]
    • ‘night mare’ - [ˈnɑet ˈmeː]
    • air - [eː]
  • before /m, n/
    • an [æn], hand [hæːnd]
    • Hannah [hænɐ]
  • before /ŋ, g/
    • waggon, hang [wægən], [hæɪŋ]~[hæŋ]

/ɩ/

I skip this section.

[ɒ]

  • collar* - [kʰɔlɐ]*, caller* - [kʰoːlɐ]*
  • holler* - [hɔlɐ]*, hauler* - [hoːlɐ]*
  • collie* - [kʰɔli]*
  • cauliflower - [kʰɔliflæɔwɐ]

voicing

  • Jacob† - [dʒæikəb]
  • Virginia† - [vəˈdʒɪnjɐ]
  • substitute† - [sabstətʃʉːt]
  • hubcap† - [habkæp]
  • ostrich* - [ɔstʃɹɪdʒ]*, sandwich [sæːmwɪdʒ]

other

  • comfortable* - [kʰamftəbəɫ]*
  • Wednesday* - [wenzdæi]*
  • February - [febjəɹi]

Elision

  • family - [fæːməli]‡, [fæːmli]* (never *[fæməli] as the orthography would suggest)
  • favorite* - [fæivɹət]*
  • asteroid - [æstəɹoid], [æstʃɹoid]
  • privledge* - [pʰrɪvlɪdʒ]*
  • potato, pathetic - [pʰə-]
  • katana [kʰə-], tomato [tʰə-]

of /r/ is so "well derr" imd that I'll skip it—except to observe that "February" is covered above.

Other People

  • diaper - [dɑepɐ]
  • diamond - [dɑemənd]
  • hop - [hɔp]
  • restaurant - [ɹest(ə)ɹɔnt] (note that if the [ə] is dropped, I don't get tɹ→tʃɹ)

  • material - [mətʰɪːɹiəɫ]
