Could anyone tell me more about it? What I have noticed are these patterns:
1) All T's are pronounced and aspirated, even in the middle and at the end of words. This sounds like spitting all the time to me, and I think it's what is considered "posh".
2) All T's are pronounced, but are only aspirated at the beginning of a stressed syllable.
3) T is a glottal stop at the end of a word, the rest of the T's follow either pattern 1 or 2 - (A little bi? of butter)
4) All T's are glottal stops. - (A li?le bi? of bu?er)
5) Some T's are tapped like in American English, but I am not sure of this pattern.
Glottal stops can occur in the positions where Americans would tap their t's, so when I said "all t's are glottal stops" I didn't really mean every T.
Anyone feel like commenting on the features? Thanks
