@esp it was intended as a subset, and as a silly joke, but I worded it badly and upset several people

@hal@slime.global you must be one of the wonderful followers, then ♥

closing mastodon to wind down for bed

goodnight, all you lovelies

@kinsey I'm using the Harrington, Cox, and Evans transcription of Australian English Vowels

clas.mq.edu.au/speech/phonetic

and (unlike for American English), I can use /ɹ/ with relative confidence because it's the only "r-like" sound in my dialect, and almost never occurs after a vowel.

@kinsey even so: my dialects vowels are arranged completely differently to yours, so reading your IPA takes me a little longer because I have to imagine saying it in an accent

@soft_chomps@glitch.social it doesn't bring it back on mastodon, in my browser at least

*spends 3 minutes writing out a message in IPA, making sure that all the vowels are correct*

*accidentally closes the tab*

*sighs, writes a much shorter message*
