Phonology

Southern Scots phonology is generally similar to that of the neighbouring Central Scots varieties; however, some vowel realisations may differ markedly.

  • ch may be realised Script error: No such module "IPA". after back vowels,[5] for example Script error: No such module "Lang". (laugh) and Script error: No such module "Lang". (willow). The cluster och is often realised Script error: No such module "IPA".,[5] for example Script error: No such module "Lang". (bought), Script error: No such module "Lang". (cough), Script error: No such module "Lang". (daughter), Script error: No such module "Lang". (fought), Script error: No such module "Lang". (sought) and Script error: No such module "Lang".

After front vowels the realisation is Script error: No such module "IPA"., occasionally with a yod-glide before it.[5]
  • ld and nd are usually elided to Script error: No such module "IPA". and Script error: No such module "IPA". in East Dumfriesshire and Roxburghshire.[6]

(two) and Script error: No such module "Lang". (who) is often realised Script error: No such module "IPA"., often written Script error: No such module "Lang"., Script error: No such module "Lang". and Script error: No such module "Lang". in dialect writing.
  • aw and au (vowel 12) may be realised Script error: No such module "IPA". rather than Script error: No such module "IPA". or Script error: No such module "IPA". as in Central Scots dialects, for example Script error: No such module "Lang".

(oak), Script error: No such module "Lang"., (oats), Script error: No such module "Lang"., Script error: No such module "Lang". (one) and Script error: No such module "Lang".

  • In some varieties e (vowel 16) may be realised Script error: No such module "IPA".[7] rather than Script error: No such module "IPA"., for example Script error: No such module "Lang"., Script error: No such module "Lang". (heated), Script error: No such module "Lang". (gate), etc.

  • eu (vowel 7 before Script error: No such module "IPA". and Script error: No such module "IPA". see ui) is often realised Script error: No such module "IPA".,[8] for example Script error: No such module "Lang". (book), Script error: No such module "Lang". (enough), Script error: No such module "Lang". (cook), Script error: No such module "Lang". (look) and Script error: No such module "Lang". (took).
  • ou, also oo (vowel 6) when final is realised Script error: No such module "IPA".,[8] for example Script error: No such module "Lang". (brow), Script error: No such module "Lang". (cow), Script error: No such module "Lang". (dove), Script error: No such module "Lang". (how), Script error: No such module "Lang". (now), Script error: No such module "Lang". (full), Script error: No such module "Lang". (pull), Script error: No such module "Lang". (sow), Script error: No such module "Lang". (allow), Script error: No such module "Lang". (through) and Script error: No such module "Lang". often represented by Script error: No such module "Lang". in dialect writing.
  • ow,[9] owe (root final) (vowel 13) may be Script error: No such module "IPA". rather than Script error: No such module "IPA". in Script error: No such module "Lang". (bow), Script error: No such module "Lang". (hollow), Script error: No such module "Lang". (knoll), Script error: No such module "Lang". (overturn), Script error: No such module "Lang". (ewe), etc.[10]
  • ui (vowel 7) is often realised Script error: No such module "IPA". or Script error: No such module "IPA".,[8] however an unrounded realisation as in Central Scots is now widespread, for example, Script error: No such module "Lang". (above), Script error: No such module "Lang". (ankle) and Script error: No such module "Lang". (good). Unrounding to Script error: No such module "IPA". is now common in Script error: No such module "Lang". (ado), Script error: No such module "Lang". (board), Script error: No such module "Lang". (do), Script error: No such module "Lang". (floor), Script error: No such module "Lang". (ford), Script error: No such module "Lang". (shoe) and Script error: No such module "Lang". (to~too).
