Silent R's

[CyprusCraig]

How many of you pronounce a silent R alongside an A??

E.g last-Larst, Pass-parss, grass-grarss etc...

Just interested.

please argue points of view whether it is right of wrong.

I say larst not last.

I'd say wrong, but accents vary all over the country remember...

Round here we pronounce book, look, cook etc. as "book" "look" "cook", not "buck" "luck" "cuck"

Which is right surely! its "oo" noone would pronounce that as "uh" if it was just the 2 letters in isolation

(just to confuse things though - "foot" is said as "fut" lol)

Not sure, coming from near Lincoln originally i used to say last. But since living in Cyprus most my friends and people i talk to are from Essex of London i have just sub-conciously picked up a similar accent.
