velarized /l/ and Billy Holiday

[Tom Zurinskas]

~! indicates my accent (at start and finish)

Tom, why don't you post using truespel
~!Taam, Wie doent yue poest yuezeeng truespel~!


Sure thing.  I also would like to find a phonetic converter for IPA to show a comparison.  Note that all accents vary.

~!Sher thheeng.  Ie aulsoe wood liek tue fiend u funnedik kunvverter for IPA tue shoe u kumppairisin.  Noet that aul aksents vairee.~!

Basically if  you run your finger along the phonemes and speak them, you are speaking as I speak.
~!Basiklee if yue run yer feenger ullaung thu foeneemz and speek them, yue aar speekeeng az Ie speek.~!

Note that stress is on the first syllable or after a double consonant.
~!Noet that stres iz aan thu ferst silubool or after u dubool kaansunint.~!
