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/. One unusual feature might be THOUGHT~START~BATH merging into [ɑ:ˁ(ʕ)~ä:ˁ(ʕ)]. (while LOT is [ɔ~o~ʌ]) | |||
The realization of the "R-colored" vowels might look like: | |||
THOUGHT = START = BATH = [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)] | |||
