minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•2 days agoI’ve only ever heard that “added r” thing when watching BBC stuff. Can you link me to some Americans saying drawring instead of drawing, for example?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•2 days agoHuh thats really interesting ive never heard that on BBC Its all over the place in New England especially in MA
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•2 days agoI didnt know people from Boston could pronounce Rs at any point, let alone add more. “Pahk the cah.”

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•2 days agoThe added r shows up in American Midland dialect. Wash becomes warsh, etc
