I pronounce it like bottle... which is also a glottal stop with those accents. Okay I pronounce it like gobble but with t's instead of b's. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] twice_twotimes@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago Yeah in most North American dialects it’s produced with a tap/flap, not a glottal stop. Unfortunate, because it would be very fun if it were true for us. permalink fedilink source parent
