Intrusive /r/ v. linking /r/

[Wilson Gray]

Heard:

"I pleaded 'not guilty,' and the jurdge (intrusive) he toin' me r-aloose
(linking)."


Back in the day when the song, "Besame Mucho," was popular, a friend down
in Marshall told me that the translation was "Kiss me murch." I was
confused, because, in my family, we used "jurdge," but "muich" [m^ItS].

Youneverknow.
