hi there.
maybe you could help me.
i am writing my graduation work about english accents and i cannot find them well described on the Net.
could you help me transcript this using IPA?
i would be really grateful

from COLLECT BRITAIN - Putting history in place
about staffordshire accent:

phonology

definite article occasionally ® [?]; definite article + V ® [D] (the other [DUD@] girl); H-dropping; Yorkshire assimilation (I were too forward for them [fQ:w@t fQr/ @m])

PRICE [a: ~ a:I > A:]; MOUTH [a: ~ aU]; GOAT [OU]; START [a: > A:]; STRUT [u]; BATH [a]

<-ook> ® [u:k]; <gl-> ® [dl]; <-ng#> ® [Ng]

note also our [aU@], cloths [klQDz], because [bIkQs], always [Q:lw@z], one [wQn] and once [wUns], schoolmaster [sk}:lma.st@], couldn’t [kUdn@], don’t [dUn@ ~ do:nt], half [a:f], teemed [tEmd], didn’t [dIn@], what’n-you-may-call-it [wQtnIkQt]
