| Query: |
The pronunciation of OFTEN with an aspirated t in the second syllable
can be heard from English-speakers on both sides of the Atlantic. Does anyone know about its distribution in the UK or US? Is it found in other English-speaking countries? Has anyone recorded OFTEN with and without t as a stylistic variable in a single speaker? I'll post a summary if response warrants it.
