Notes edit
- ^ Often transcribed /a/ for RP, for example in dictionaries of the Oxford University Press.
- ^ See low back merger for more discussion of this vowel in American English.
- ^ Often transcribed /e/ for RP, for example in Collins English Dictionary.
- ^ Sometimes transcribed for GA as [əɹ], especially in transcriptions that represent both rhotic and non-rhotic pronunciations, as [ə(ɹ)].
- ^ Alternative symbols used in British dictionaries are /ɛː/ (Oxford University Press) and /ɛə/.
- ^ >Roach, 2004 & 241-243, pp. 21-22, 25-26. Roach notes that many people in England use /ɔːɹ/ for this vowel, but the RP is to distinguish between more /mɔːɹ/ and moor /mʊəɹ/, tore /tɔːɹ/ and tour /tʊəɹ/, pour /pɔːɹ/ and poor /pʊəɹ/.
