PHONEMIC INCIDENCE
WORDS OF FRENCH ORIGIN, SUCH AS CORISSANT OR
NICHE ARE PRONOUNCED AS THEY WOULD BE IN
FRENCH, SO: /KɹƏˈSɒN(T)/ /NIƩ/
WORDS SUCH AS ADULT-COMPOSITE AND PROYECT ARE
GIVEN EMPHASIS ON THE FIRST SYLLABLE AS IN BRITAIN.
LEVER /ˈLIVƏ/ - EITHER AND NEITHER ARE MORE
COMMONLY /ˈAɪÐƏR/ AND /ˈNAɪÐƏR/

WESTERN AND CENTRAL DIALECTS
AS IN NORTH AMERICAN ENGLISH, THESE REGIONS ARE
CHARACTERIZED BY THE ROTHIC ACCENT.
CANADIAN RISING
IT IS THE MOST RELEVANT FEATURE OF CANADIAN ENGLISH, HERE
THE DIPTHONGS /Aɪ/ AND /AƱ/ ARE "RAISED"
BEFORE THE VOICED CONSONANTS; /P/ /T/
/K/ AND /F/ AS IN WRITER

12. The low-black merger and the Canadian shift This first term consists on th complete merger of the vowel /ɔ/ and /ɑ/ by [ɒ](Caught and cot respectively) Resulting from this merger and the space in articulation that it leaves a low-front vowel is /æ/ is

retracted to a lowcentral articulation. The result is the ultilization of the same
vowel to words such as; stack and
stock.
