1.當字母r出現在單詞的元音字母組合中時,北美英語會出現獨特的卷舌音。也就是元音發音完畢后,要很流暢地將舌尖向后卷,但不得接觸上腭。

2.英語中的元音/ɑ?/在用于/f,

,s/或鼻音前時,美語發為/?/,但在字母組合lm前發音為/ɑ/。

3.英語/??/變為美語/?/或/ɑ/。

4.英語/?/、/?/在美語中不再區分,讀為/?/。

5.美式英語中的t:字母t可出現在單詞的詞首、詞中和詞尾三個部位。其中在詞首與詞尾時的發音技巧與英式英語相同。例如:tight//。而在詞中時,英國人的讀法和詞首、詞尾一致,美國人卻有兩種讀法。由舌尖彈動發出的彈舌音,聽起來像一個非常輕的/d/。如:better
