Why do we pronounce trunk as trʌŋk?
In RP whenever we have spelling n+k at the middle of a word we will pronounce /ŋ/+ /k/
Look at this sentence: do we pronounce all the words with /ŋ/ and eliminate /g/? Why?
In ˈlɪvɪŋ the ŋ occurs at final position but in ˈstrɒŋgə and ˈlɒŋgə there's a final morpheme 'er' so we don't delete the /g/ from pronunciation
How do we pronounce this word? What is the rule?
ˈæŋgə is pronounced with ŋ+g because the final spelling 'er' doesn't represent a morpheme
ŋ never occurs in _____ position
initial
What happens with the words ending with spelling 'ng'? Do we pronounce ŋ+g?
We don't, it is just a final ŋ pronunciation
