Subject: kw (qu) or k ?<br>
<br>
Some years ago, while listening to the BBC (radio and TV) I was struck by words<br>
lie quarter, quart, headquarters, being pronounced with initial k . At that
time<br>
I didn't pay much attetntion. Lately I keep hearing it regularly. I thought it<br>
was rather bewildering. I checked in my dictionaries:Longman's, publ. 1987, The<br>
Concise Oxford Dictionary, 1991, a very old edition of An English Pronouncing<br>
Dictionary by Daniel Jones, 1952, Van Dale, Groot Woordenboek
Engels-Nederlands,<br>
1989, Ten Bruggencate, Engels Woordenboek (Wolters),1983, Webster's Third New<br>
International Dictionary, 1966. They all concur that the correct pronunciation<br>
is with kw. I hear this pronunciation in both British and American speech. I<br>
think this rather remarkable, as all other words with qu are realized with kw. <br>
I am under the impression that this is a rather recent development. What is
your<br>
opinion?<br>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Dat
is hier ok so, ick gäw mal 'n Bispill an:<br>
<br>
Q Dieser Laut bietet in seiner Bildung (Kw) keine Schwierigkeit. Regel:
Die Lippen niemals runden, sonst entsteht aus dem W ein einfaches U. Übungen,
Qual, Quell, quillt, Quarz, quirlen. u.ä.<br>
<br>
Beispiel: Der Qualm (the smoke) : Qualm [<i>kvalm]; </i>die Königin (the
queen), queen [<i>kwi:n</i>]<br>
Literatur: DER KLEINE HEY , DIE KUNST DER SPRACHE EDITION SCHOTT 614<br>
<br>
Stimmhafte Affrikate (<i>kv</i>) <i>qu: kv<br>
</i>Das Schriftzeichen qu ist als enge Verbindung von (<i>k</i>) und (<i>v</i>)
zu sprechen.<br>
Literatur: K.-L. HARTH DEUTSCHE SPRECHÜBUNGEN (Mit Aussprache
Regeln)<br>
<i><br>
</i>Dat gellt nah mien Dünken ok för Nedderdüütsch.<br>
<br>
Mit 'n fründlich Gräuten.<br>
