  1. TRAP BATH PALM START In Phonetics 1 we have often talked about “the TRAP vowel”, “the STRUT vowel”, etc. In this Accents and Dialects course, we must remember to modify our terminology, since the TRAP vowel actually varies considerably between different accents. We must talk about “the RP TRAP vowel” or “the Northern English PALM vowel”. By themselves, the names of the Lexical Sets do not give us details about the pronunciation unless their locality is detailed. Thus it is better to use the phonetic symbol.

  2. BATH-TRAP : don't be mislead by weak forms The Standard Lexical Sets refer ONLY to stressed words. Words occurring as weak forms are not stressed. I know that she's coming This has been a terrible weekend fisherman, postman woman distant
