| | The American T is influenced very strongly by intonation and its position in a word or phrase. | | | Another reason is that there are four ways of saying these two sounds, depending what the final consonant is. | | | By comparison, the silent E at the end of a word is a signal for pronunciation, but it is not pronounced itself: code is [kod]. |

| | Pronunciation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | A word can be spoken in different ways by various individuals or groups, depending on many factors, such as the time in which they grew up, the area in which they grew up, the area in which they now live, their social class, and their education. | | | The way in which an individual pronounces words depends firstly on the basic units of sound (phones) that they use in their language. | | | Note that the word is spelled pronunciation, not pronounciation. |
