minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•2 months agoInteresting. How do they pronounce father and bother? They are the same for me (a westerner).
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink0•edit-22 months agoThe vowel in father is pronounced closer to the front of the mouth and the vowel in bother is pronounced closer to the back of the mouth. Kamala has the father vowel, while comma has the bother vowel.
