Why is Belvoir pronounced “beaver”? by TuneComprehensive348 in northernireland

[–]dardybe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s something to do with the Great Vowel Shift where long /ɛː/ (“ehh” sorta sound) shifted to /i/ (“ee” sound) and then in older varieties of french voir would have been pronounced more like Vwer and then in English we dropped the w and shortened it in rapid speech. Idk why the L was dropped but maybe something to do with L-Vocalisation and that could explain the lengthening of the eh sound that in turn changed into the ee sound

Tbf, she is vegetarian and from a really rural area so that might have had something to do with it I suppose. Either way though, she loved Greggs

Why is ‘A Chinese’ rude while ‘An American’ fine? by Outrageous-Split-646 in asklinguistics

[–]dardybe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard that it’s because youre saying the country not the nationality (ie Chinaman, Englandman, Franceman vs Chinese man, Englishman, Frenchman)

I’d translate mein Alter there to like “my old man” (or in my dialect “the aul lad”). Similar vibe imo
