What's your IPA inventory?
What's your IPA inventory?
Thought this might be a cool topic . What's the IPA inventory for your native language(s) when you speak it/them? Here's mine:
English (Southern American)
/m~mp n ŋ~n (unstressed)/
/pʰ~p~p̚ b~b̚ tʰ~ɾ~ʔ d~ɾ~ʔ kʰ~k~k̚ ɡ~g̚/
/t͡ʃʰ~t͡ʃ d͡ʒ/
/s~ʃ z~ɾ (sometimes in contractions) ʃ ʒ/
/f v θ ð h~ç (before /j/)/
/j ʍ (only on occasions especially with "what?") w/
/l~ɫ/
/ɻ/
/iː~ɪ (unstressed after /l/) ʉː~uː/
/ɪ ʊ/
/ə/
/ɛ~ɪ (before /m n/) ʌ/
/æə/
/ɑ/
/ɛɪ̯~eɪ̯ aɪ̯~aː ɜu̯~ɔu̯ (before /l/ or a vowel) æɒ̯ oʊ̯~ə (unstressed finally)/
/ɝ ɚ ɑɚ ɔ˞/
Making this I found out there are several words I stress differently than many other Americans

Re: What's your IPA inventory?
Here's mine:
/pʰ tʰ~(ʔ) ʧʰ kʰ~x/
/b d ʤ g/
/m n/
/f v s z (θ ð) s z ʃ ʒ h/
/ɾ l w j/
I rarely have /ʔ/ for /t/, but it does creep in sometimes.
/x/ is an intervocalic and word-final allophone of /kʰ/.
/ð/ is nearly always /d/ for me in casual speech. /θ/ can tend towards dental /t/.
/ɾ/ may sometimes be /ɹ/ but I tend to have /ɾ/.
[ŋ] only occurs in /ŋg/.
/l/ tends to be less velarised than in some varieties.
Long vowels:
/i: ʉː/
/e:~ɪ: ɔ:/
/a:~ɑ:/
I tend towards /ɪ:/.
Short vowels:
/ɪ ʊ/
/ɛ ɑ/
/a ǝ/
/a:i a:u ɛi ɔu ɔi/
I wonder if anyone can guess my accent based on that.

You can tell the same lie a thousand times,
But it never gets any more true,
So close your eyes once more and once more believe
That they all still believe in you.
Just one time.

Note - this is very much a phoneme inventory. The actual realisations of the phonemes may vary.
Consonants:

/p pː t tː k kː/
/p͡f t͡s t͡ʃ/
/f fː s sː x h xː~hː/
/ʋ l ɾ j/
Gemination may not be phonemic in all consonants in all environments. Initial k: is realized as aspirated and contrasts with marginal [k:] (found mostly in loans from romance words starting with a tenuis plosive, or as reduction of /tk/). /x:/ is often realized as [h:], especially intervocally.
/i y u/

/ɛ œ ɔ/
/a/
/ɪɐ̯ ʏɐ̯ ʊɐ̯/

/aɪ̯ aʊ̯/
Length may be contrastive in a number of vowels, but the large inventory makes true minimal pairs statistically unlikely. I believe vowel length can be determined by the environment but haven't been able to prove it. In final unstressed position, only two vowels appear: [ɪ ɐ], the latter being a common allophone of the schwa. [eɪ] is marginal, occurring mostly in loanwords (baby) and as a possible allophone of /egɪ/.

Re: What's your IPA inventory?
Unlike my peers, my voiceless phonemes are nearly unaspirated, which I attribute to growing up around Indian parents.
This is strictly inventory: allophones are not included if they're represented by another phoneme (ie. no /t~ʃ/, just /t ʃ/

Consonants:

/f v θ ð s z ʃ ʒ h/
/m n ŋ/
/w j ɹʷ l/
/iː ɪ uː ʊ̜/

/p b t d t͡ʃ d͡ʒ k g/

/m n ŋ/
/w j ɹʷ l/
- Voiceless stops and fricatives are aspirated in the onset except after /s/ and in the onset of an unstressed syllable other than the first one. Aspirated stops tend to be somewhat affricated.
- /t/ and /d/ both become [ɾ] intervocallically when not in the onset of a stressed syllable or the first syllable of a word, and /d/ can also become [ɾ] word-finally.
- /t/ becomes [ʔ] in the coda.
- /h/ is sometimes deleted word-initially in casual speech.
- /θ/ and /ð/ are interdental, and tend to be realized as [t̪͆] and [d̪͆], respectively, utterance-initially and after nasals.
- Light /l/ is interdental. In the coda, /l/ is realized as [ɤ̯ˤ] after unrounded vowels and [o̯ˤ] after rounded vowels (e.g. <still> [stɪɤ̯ˤ], <pool> [pʰuo̯ˤ]), with the same amount of rounding as the preceding vowel. /oʊ̯l/ is realized as [oˤ] (e.g. <old> [oˤd]). When a word-final or morpheme-final /l/ is followed by a vowel-initial word, it becomes [lˤ] (e.g. <taller> [ˈtʰɒlˤɚ]).
- My /ɹ/ is a bunched r, not alveolar at all.
/iː ɪ uː ʊ̜/
/ɛ ə ɝ~ɚ/
/æ ɐ ɑː ɒː/
/ɛɪ̯ ɔɪ̯ aɪ̯ oʊ̯ æʊ̯/
/iɚ̯ eɚ̯ ɔɚ̯ ɑɚ̯/
- I'm still not entirely sure whether I have [oʊ̯] or [əʊ̯], or whether I have [ɐ] or [ʌ].
- Apparently it's [ɝ] in stressed syllables and [ɚ] in unstressed syllables, although I personally can't hear the difference.
- /aɪ̯/ becomes [ɐɪ̯] before unvoiced consonants and sometimes before flapped /d/ [ɾ], as well as in a few unusual cases before other voiced consonants: <onion> [ˈɐɪ̯njən], <cyborg> [ˈsɐɪ̯bɔɚ̯g].
- /æ/ becomes [eə̯] before /n/ and /m/ and [æɪ̯~ɛɪ̯] before /ŋ/.
- /ɝ/ is bunched, just like /ɹ/ above (but not rounded).
Re: What's your IPA inventory?
High German (albeit influenced by certain Swabian and Saxonian dialects)
/b̥ pʰ d̥ tʰ g̥ kʰ/
/͡pf t͡s t͡ʃ d͡ʒ/
/m n ŋ/
/f v s z ʃʷ ʒʷ x h/
/l j ʁ/
Like in most areas of Southern Germany, the difference between voiced and unvoiced stops is rather a lenis-fortis distinction in my idiolect. Unlike the speakers around me, I still aspirate my fortis consonants.
Unlike most speakers around me, I retain the voiced phonemes /z/, /ʒʷ/ and /d͡ʒ/ (the latter two only occurring in loanwords). On the other hand, I lack [ɱ] as an allophone of /m/ in words like fünf.
Born and raised by Saxonians, I had a difficult time with /x/'s allophone [ç], constantly pronouncing it [ʃ] instead. I hypercorrected that a little, resulting in forms like Wäsche: [vɛçə] instead of [vɛʃə]
Vowels:
/a aː/
/eː ɛ øː œ oː ɔ ə/
/iː ɪ yː ʏ uː ʊ/
The pronunciation of my vowels almost exactly follows what has been "taught" for Standard German. As many speakers of standard German, I lack /ɛː/ (I pronounce it as /eː/ instead, making Bären and Beeren homophonous). However, I almost never pronounce the schwa, with the effect that I'm sometimes hard to understand (although not as hard as dialect speakers). I don't feature Swabian nasal vowels, and whenever I was trying, I was constantly told that the sound "weird".

- - among plosives, aspirated forms are used initially and, apart from [tʰ], medially unless preceded by /s/ or /ʃ/
- unreleased forms used syllable finally unless emphasised in which case they may be aspirated, or in the case of /k/ ejected.
- [ɾ] appears between vowels after stress or even prestress when followed by a morpheme boundary
- /dj tj sj zj/ of other dialects merge with /t͡ʃʰ~t͡ʃ d͡ʒ ʃ ʒ/ and /stj/ may further become [ʃt͡ʃ].

- - Superscript characters indicate the the epenthetic /ɹ/ or /w/ that arises when followed by a vowel to prevent hiatus. Vowels that lack this are never followed by another vowel.
- /ɪː/ can become [ɪɐ̯] word finally.
- /ə/ becomes [ɐ] word finally.
- in unstressed syllables, /ə/ and /ɪ/ are in almost complementary distribution with /ɪ/ appearing before postalveolar and velar consonants and /ə/ elsewhere although there are a few words with /ə/ before velars.
- the CURE vowel is not distinct, either merging with /oːʳ/ as in "poor", "sure" or else bisyllabic /ʉːʷəʳ / as in "cure", "tour",or simply /ʉːʷ/ as in "Europe", "fluoro"
/ɪi̯ʲ æɪ̯ʲ ɑe̯ʲ oɪ̯ʲ æʊ̯ʷ ɐʉ̯ʷ/

- - Superscript characters show epenthetic consonants that appear before vowels to prevent hiatus.
- All diphthongs display allophonic length changes, short before voiceless consonants, long before voiced. (This seems to be blocked by phonemic length distinctions in the monophthongs.)
- /ɪi̯/ shortens to [ɪ̆i̯] when unstressed.
- /æʊ̯/ unrounds to [æɯ̯̽] before most consonants and may not be distinguished from /æː/ before /ɫ/.
- /ɐʉ̯/ backs to [ɔʊ̯] or possibly [ʌʊ̯] before /ɫ/.

Re: What's your IPA inventory?
It really depends on how good I'm trying to speak so I have either a really German accent or quite a faked British accent. I ordered the vowels according to how they would be pronounced in GAE (monophthongs, diphthongs, r-coloured vowels, unstressed vowels).

1 The lengthening is only there to differentiate /æ/ [ɛː] and /ɛ/ [ɛ], I'd say

3 This might be due to German's pronunciations of Komma and Bäcker for example.

1 These may deaffricate depending on how German I speak and aren't labialised compared to the post-alvealor fricatives.
2 Again, depending on how German I speak the dental fricatives either stay dental or they merge with /s/ and /z/.
3 /l/ is always /l/ and never velarizes in the coda.
Allophones:
- The distribution of aspirated and unaspirated voiceless stops is just like in English. At the end of a word the stops aren't as aspirated as I normally aspirate them in German.
- Voiced consonants devoice at the end of words.
- /j/ after /t/ and /k/ often turns into [ç].
- /t/ is realised as [d] intervocally.
- /tɹ̠ʷ/ and /dɹ̠ʷ/ are realised as /t͡ʃʷ~t͡ʃw/ and /d͡ʒʷ~d͡ʒw/.

1 Compared to the simple post-alvealor fricates, the affricatives aren't labialised.
2 Depending on how non-standard I want to speak, I pronounce the dental fricatives as /f/ and /v/.
Allophones:
- The distribution of aspirated and unaspirated voiceless stops is just like in English. At the end of a word the stops aren't as aspirated as I normally aspirate them in German.
- /t/ is realised as a glottal intervocally and at the end of words, which is a bad attempt at trying to pronounce it as [ʔ͡t]
- /tɹ̠ʷ/ and /dɹ̠ʷ/ are realised as /t͡ʃʷ~t͡ʃw/ and /d͡ʒʷ~d͡ʒw/.
- Coda /l/ is vocalises into /o̯/ and merges with the vowel(s) in front of it. Diphthongs change their last part into /o̯/ as well, e.g. /ɪ̟i̯l/ is [ɪ̟o̯] and /e̞ɪ̯l/ is [e̞o̯]. At the end of words /əl/ is simply realised as /o/.
- /h/ and /k/ are pronounced as /ħ/ and /k͡ħ/ before /ɒˤ/, so cot is [k͡ħɒˤʔ] which is pretty fucked up in my opinion.

Re: What's your IPA inventory?
I thought it wasn't too special enough to post since it's just Standard German with some mergers of r-coloured vowels, nothing more.Creyeditor wrote:Why only English, ixals?

Re: What's your IPA inventory?
But the r-colored mergers are the most interesting ones
