The trilled -r and deletion of -l

CajVE is a non-rhotic variety. The sound /r/ is absent in stressed syllables (letter) and in syllable coda in word-final (four) and pre-consonantal (hard) positions. CajVE speakers use flap  in word-initial consonant clusters [tr, dr, fr], as in three and tree. They also delete [l] in intervocalic and preconsonantal positions in words such as celery, jewelry and help.
