"A" in "car" and in "PASS"
A couple weeks I ask a question about the "a" sound in "CAR" and "o" in "hot", I find out that's different, but I also find out that it's just different in back east, maybe it's same in the rest of the states.
so "A" in "car" and in "PASS" sound same?just like "father", if that's same, give me more example words, thanx!
''car'' and ''pass'' don't share the same vowel sound for me. In my New York accent they are:
car - /kA@R/ pass - /pe@s/ Note that I have a tense-lax ''a'' split in my accent and ''pass'' has the tense vowel while ''trap'' has the lax vowel for me. ''bath'' similarly has the tense vowel.
No, car and pass are different for me. Car is a long a and pass has a short a. (Or whatever we're calling them these days.)
They don't share the same vowel for me. I pronounce ''pass'' as /pas/ and ''car'' as /kAr/. We tend not to have the trap-bath split here in Northern England. That's more of a Southern English thing.
Virtually the same sound in Edinburghspeak. Not like the short sharp "d@ft as a b@t" of Northern England or the "pa:ss me your gla:ss" of Southern England......something more in between.
The Southern English long A as in ['pa:ss] ['gla:ss] and ['tra:nce] has been done to death in this Forum.
Also from Florida - They have different vowels for me.
pass - /p{s/ car - /kAr/
Thanx!so "car" is different to "pass". Does "A" in "father" sounds similar to "a" in "car", just without the "r" sound?
