IPA

[edit]

I have my doubts about the given IPA /ˈkaʊɪtʃən/ - because in Canadian English the "ow" diphthong is / əʊ / so the rendering should be /ˈkəʊɪtʃən/ - unless for some reason people in the Cowichan Valley speak American English rather than Canadian English.Skookum1 (talk) 18:00, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've given it some thought and am going to change it to the Schwa-version, which is how Canadians would pronounce this. I don't know many Canadians who can even manage the broad /aʊ/ diphthong, even with practice.Skookum1 (talk) 19:10, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
