unable to reproduce the exact vowel and therefore
really? huh. well -- i'm here to tell you that if you pronounce it with the vowel in
book
and so forth, you'll be fine. :-)
you are quite right that i wasn't, for this survey, interested in
route
or anything else. it was "oo" vowels i was interested in. athankyaverramuch.
