Cleanup edit

I added a clean-up tag though I could've added the multipl-issues tag as well. IPA is broken, strange notations |like this| are used, non-standard terminology is employed, and so on and so forth. Jalwikip (talk) 10:14, 16 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

"There are four forms of "be" in Belizean Kriol: |de|, |di|, and the absence of a marker." This seems to amount to three forms of "be"... and the |de| syntax is not something I'm familiar with, and has no references to... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Heimburg (talkcontribs) 15:57, 5 November 2012 (UTC)Reply


I am a linguistics student and I am adding the sounds for a class assignment. Saranashed (talk) 20:14, 14 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Bibliography edit

Biblio is missing for Gibson 1988; Mufwene 1984; Winford 1985; Bailey 1966; Patrick 1995; Lawton 1984; and Irvine 2004. A lot of this article is essentially unreferenced. — Lfdder (talk) 00:35, 7 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Phonology /r/ edit

"5. When /r/ occurs finally, it is always deleted. When it occurs in the middle of a word, it is often deleted leaving a residual vowel length."

Is there a more specific rule for when the /r/ isn't pronounced when in the middle of a word? In many English dialects and accents, the /r/ is deleted and the preceding vowel is lengthened when the /r/ is the coda of a syllable, but when the /r/ is the onset of a syllable, it is pronounced. Examples:

As onset: <auxiliary> = [ɑg.zɪ.lə.ɹi], <interesting> = [ɪn.tə.ɹɛs.tɪŋ], <warrior> = [wɔ.ɹi.ə]

As coda: <carbon> = [kɑ:.bn̩], <marksman> = [mɑ:ks.mn̩], <party> = [pɑ:ɾi]

Perhaps it is the same in Kriol? Anyone know?
