Context 1

... approximant /ô/ has four realizations [ô], [ü], [R] and [r]. Example waveforms and spectrograms are shown in Figure 5. The /ô/ in DY's production of [ô-N CO@ P] 'longest' can be ...

Context 2

... coda /ô/ is frequently dropped in colloquial speech 5 , resulting in compensatory lengthening of the vowel [V˘], e.g., TN: /kHiô/ [kHi˘] 'dancing' (see Figure 5). In colloquial speech, /l/ is not pronounced and the vowel is lengthened, e.g., (/kHE@ l/), /kHE@ ˘/ 'spin (yarn)'. ...
