I am going to post another video. I posted it in this post, but because it's the last post on the page, no one saw it, so I will post it at the end of the thread again.

OneStepBeyond, are you dyslexic?

You guys make no sense with your illogical English approximation pronunciation. IPA is where it's at. :wink:


I'm sure I'm one of the few people on here that can pronounce this variation of l. You hold your tongue up to the hard palate and blow through the sides before bringing it back down. Inuktitut has it. It's a really fun sound to produce.

And Dunny, I know quite a few of the IPA letters from the obsession with linguistics I held back in the 10th and early 11th grade. But I'm too lazy to pull up wikipedia and copy-paste.

Possibly, since according to most people it's difficult. But I can pronounce just about every sound found in IPA. :P

Very good. IPA is very useful, and infinitely better than approximation. I have an IPA keyboard layout, so I can type in IPA pretty easily. :wink:

maybe one of the few, but you are not alone. i worked among the Tl'azt'en Nation (Dene) people in Northern British Columbia, so i can also make that sound.
