Ask questions or just talk about different languages. Since BrainKing is an international game site supporting many languages, this board can be kind of useful.

Since we will be dealing with pronunciation of words rather than their spelling, I think it's useful to have a link to The sounds of English and the International Phonetic Alphabet.

Emne: Re:
Pedro Martínez: I don't know how much you're familiar with technical phonology terms, but /t/ is a voiceless alveolar plosive while /d/ is a voiced alveolar plosive. The place of articulation in both of them is the alveolar ridge and therefore, a switch from one to the other is quite simple. The only difference is in one of them being voiced, and the other a voiceless consonant.

So I think there must be a rule. Why don't they say the /t/ sound in 'better' in a way close to /z/ for example?
