long r's. it's much more common to roll the r just oneroll, called a tapped r. bright red, so i say bright red like that. or saying wordslike butter or bird. notice that it's tapped, so it's not "birrrd"or not bird, bird. also, if you get an l after the letter r, sometimes you'll have an extrasyllable on the word so that girl becomes "girl, girl" and world becomes "world". theloveliest "girl" in the "world". our next feature is the vowels in bath andlaugh are the same as in the vowels in trap and man. so, quite often they are differentfor other accents, but in this accent they are the same. bath, laugh, trap, and man.

"it'snot a problem if you have any gotten any.".
