People talk about “New Hampsha” and “Woosta” for New Hampshire and Worcester. Similarly, Laferriere (1979: 431) indicates that the R-less production of START with [a:] is a marker of Boston speech. Linking R is produced: if the following word begins with a vowel, the R is rhotic (hear it). A related NE pattern is the appearance of inter-vocalic where the standard spelling does not indicate it, referred to as intrusive R, as in saw it.

In contrast, most of WNE shows consistent .
Our recorded NH speakers vocalize in reading the word list, in words such as CURE, LETTER, FORCE, NORTH, START, SQUARE, and NEAR. Variable vocalization is also evident in the recorded and transcribed narratives.
