Difference In US English And UK English, The Sound /R/

The correct answer is "If it's followed by a vowel." In British English, the sound /r/ is usually pronounced when it is followed by a vowel sound. This is known as the linking /r/ and is commonly heard in phrases like "car and driver" or "far away." The /r/ sound is not pronounced when it is followed by a consonant sound or at the end of a word.

This answer correctly identifies an intrusive /r/ as being added in a situation where none exist. This means that the /r/ sound is inserted into a word or phrase where it is not naturally pronounced.

The correct pronunciation of "sorry" in British English is "sɒrɪ."

In British English, the sound /r/ is usually pronounced silently, meaning it is not pronounced at all. However, there is an exception to this rule when /r/ is followed by a vowel. In such cases, the /r/ sound is pronounced.

British English does not pronounce the /r/ sound at the end of words or before consonants. This is known as non-rhotic pronunciation. Therefore, the statement that British English pronounces its /r/ sound at all times is false.

The correct pronunciation of "bar" in British English is "bɑ:".

In British English, the word "air" is pronounced as "eə". This pronunciation is a combination of the vowel sound "e" and the schwa sound "ə". The "e" sound is a mid-front vowel sound, similar to the sound in words like "bet" or "set". The schwa sound "ə" is a neutral vowel sound, often found in unstressed syllables. When combined, these two sounds create the pronunciation "eə" for the word "air" in British English.

Rhotic speakers do pronounce the sound /r/ even if it is not followed by a vowel. This means that they pronounce the /r/ sound in words like "car" or "park" even when it is not immediately followed by a vowel sound. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

Rhotic speakers are those who pronounce the /r/ sound in their words. This means that they do not drop or omit the /r/ sound at the end of words or before consonants. Instead, they fully articulate the /r/ sound. Therefore, the statement "Rhotic speakers pronounce the /r/ in their words" is true.

The sound /r/ in US English is pronounced "hard" because it is produced by vibrating the back of the tongue against the roof of the mouth. This sound is distinct and audible, unlike a silent sound.

The correct pronunciation of "teacher" in American English is "ti:tʃər". The "ti:tʃ" sound represents the "ch" sound, as in "church". The "ər" at the end represents the schwa sound, which is a neutral vowel sound. Therefore, the correct pronunciation is "ti:tʃər".

In US English, the sound /r/ is typically pronounced with a strong and distinct articulation. On the other hand, in British English, the sound /r/ is often pronounced very lightly or even silent.
