Talk:Svealand dialects

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I seriously doubt /r/ + /d/ → [ɖ] is a Svealand Swedish feature, it's a purely Standard Swedish one. Instead, Svealand Swedish has /r/ + /d/ → /ɽ/, i.e., the result is a retroflex flap. (Colloquially known as a thick l in Swedish since the letter l is often pronounced /ɽ/ in Svealand Swedish.) See, e.g., Bengt Pamp, Svenska dialekter, 1978. // JiPe (193.10.116.207 (talk) 17:48, 6 August 2010 (UTC))[reply]
