  Dude's totally not grokking the [ɔˑʚ] sitch. He's barking up
  the wrong tree, thinking there are two syllables supposed to
  be before that sneaky R. Newsflash: it's actually a diphthong
  deal, with the front end dragging its feet a bit!

  Then he's got the cojones to throw shade at Luciano Canepari (see
  below). But get this - our boy Peter once dropped this nugget:
 
|Came out fine on my screen. Yes, of all the variants listed there, that's

  That's exactly Canepari's M.O. - swapping out those fancy-pants
  diacritics for plain Jane characters.

  Now, circle back and peep that OG quote from the top, but this
  time, it's the director's cut. No edits, baby.

|What does "rural New York" mean? As was discussed just yesterday,  New York State comprises three 
|very distinct dialect areas: New York City (with Long Island), Hudson Valley, and Midwest. 
|There are no "rural" areas with New York City dialect.
