Absolute pointless #curiosity: When you say the phrase "not you," how does the word Not come out? (Edit: DAMMIT. Tried to clarify some issues to respond to comments and now I guess all the responses disappeared. FFFFUUUUUUU) NoT means there's an actual "t" sound with a little plosive on that TNo' means there's a glottal stop instead of a "t" sound, like the word ends without a consonantIf it varies, choose the one that happens most often These polls don't offer a lot of options so I've smooshed a lot of regions together; feel free to specify that or anything else not shown (e.g., different way of saying "not") in comments. Clarification: "BBC English" is my American attempt to say RP or "The King's English" or something like that. #language #regionalisms #english #dialect #poll
