Nancy Hall in “Vowel Epenthesis” discussed about it in detail. She explained that the word "vowel epenthesis" can allude to any procedure in which a vowel is used for an expression. Besides this straightforward portrayal, nonetheless, vowel epenthesis forms shift gigantically in their features, and numerous parts of their typology are as yet not surely comprehended. Consequently, the exact focus of this research is on the heterogeneity of epenthesis forms of vowels. In many circumstances, the capacity of vowel epenthesis is to repair information that does not meet a dialect's essential necessities. Specifically, vowel epenthesis permits the developing of consonants those are primary show up in phonotactically illegitimate settings. Epenthesis …show more content…
She then mentioned a case study of Temiar (Mon-Khmer, Malaysia) that he had a highly contemplated example of epenthetic vowel situation in elongated consonant groups. Temiar permits just CV and CVC syllables. They are provided with an onset of three or four consonants, Temiar embeds epenthetic vowels to shape a thread of open syllables ended by a closed syllable. The epenthetic vowel is considered as a schwa in open syllables and [e] in closed syllables. The nature of an epenthetic vowel might be resolved in one of two ways: it is either a settled, default quality which may, obviously, be liable to standard allophonic variety as per the dialect's phonology; otherwise the quality is dictated by some piece of the phonological setting. There are signs that speakers are not generally aware of epenthetic vowels in an indistinguishable path of lexical vowels. One kind of confirmation originates from circumstances where speakers are made a request to compose their elocutions phonetically. She then quoted that Pearce (2004: 19) solicited speakers from Kera (East Chadic, talked in Chad, with no custom of composing) to pick between two conceivable spellings for acoustically CVCVCV words, where the center vowel was examined as
This chapter focused mainly on misconceptions and attempting to clarify those misconceptions about accents. In the opinion of linguists, accent is a difficult word to define. This is due to the fact that language has variation therefore when it comes to a person having an accent or not, there is no true technical distinction because every person has different phonological aspects to their way of speaking. However, when forced to define this word, it is described as “a way of speaking” (Lippi-Green, 2012, p.44). Although Lippi- Green identified the difficulty linguists have in distinguishing between accent, dialect, and another language entirely, they were able to construct a loose way of distinguishing. Lippi- Green states that an accent can be determined by difference in phonological features alone, dialect can be determined by difference in syntax, lexicon, and semantics alone, and when all of these aspects are different from the original language it is considered another language entirely (Lippi-Green, 2012).
In an experiment, around 350 Chicagoans, were recorded reading the following paragraph, titled “Too Hot for Hockey”, this script was written specifically to force readers to vocalize vowels “that reveal how closely key sounds resemble the accent's dominant traits” (Wbez). The paragraph is as follows:

Garrett (1975) represented four characteristics of slips of the tongue. The first one is that the exchange exists between linguistic units of the same positions. For example, initial linguistic segments are replaced by another initial linguistic segment. The same generalization is applied to the middle and final linguistic segments. Additionally, slips appear in similar phonetic units. This means that that the consonants are replaced by consonants and vowels are replaced by vowels. Furthermore, the slips occur in similar stress patterns, which signifies that stressed syllables are replaced by stressed syllables and unstressed syllables are replaced by unstressed syllables. Finally, slips of the tongue follow the phonological rules of a language (cited in Carroll, 2007, p. 195).
These three groups were then asked to complete three different tasks. The first was to repeat and segment 20 different words (5 consonant-vowel-consonant, 5 CCVC, 5 CVCC, and 5 CCVCC) and two overall scores were administered to the participants. Both scores were out of a maximum of 20 points; the first score was based on giving 1 point for each correctly analyzed word, and the second score was based on giving 1 point for correctly analyzing medial vowels.

Analyzing dialects can be difficult due to the fact that is it hard to transcribe the pronunciation of an individual dialect because English is not spelled the same way it is pronounced. Furthermore, one person’s interpretation of spelling a dialect might not match up with another’s, so the reader might not “hear” the dialect properly. Regardless, written versions of dialects are essential to discussing dialectical differences.
prevalent within a single dialect, a single national language or a single group of social language. It is one of the most significant “modes in the historical life and evolution of all languages … [and] language and languages change historically primarily by means of hybridization” (Bakhtin, 2011, 358). The conscious hybridization, on the other hand, is an intentional hybrid that is primarily applied as “an artistic device” (Bakhtin, 2011, p. 358). Bakhtin (2011) defines these hybrid constructions
Morphological awareness as a multidimensional competence is defined as the ability to reflect upon morphemes and the morphological structure of words (Carlisle, 2003; Kuo and Anderson, 2006), and manipulate those smaller meaningful parts such as affixes, and roots that builds words (Carlisle & Nomanbhoy, 1993; Jarmulowicz, Taran, & Hay, 2007; Kuo & Anderson, 2006; Nagy, Berninger, & Abbott, 2006) . For children who are learning their native language, morphological awareness develops so quickly with the help of their exposure to spoken language, requiring limited exposure to printed words; However, the case is not the same when second language learning is considered. For EFL learners who have not been exposed to spoken form of the
