===10th-17th century English===
consonant inventory of 15th century Azalic English:
p t̪ tʃ k b d̪ dʒ g m n̪
ɸ β ʋ w θ ð s z ʃ ʒ h
l~lˠ ɹ̝ˠ j
and allophonic ʔ
(stops may or may not be aspirated, it's free variation)
TRAP: /a/
BATH: /a:/
PALM: /ɑ/
FACE: /e:/
DRESS: /ɛ/
FLEECE: /i:/
KIT: /i/
PRICE: /ae/
LOT: /ɔ/
THOUGHT: /ɔ:/
GOAT: /o:/
GOOSE: /u:/
FOOT: /u/
STRUT: /ɨ/
no Canadian raising, rhotic vowels are basically the vowels plus /ɹ/ [ɹ̝ˠ]
chain shift in 18th century accents: /ø/ -> /ə/, but /o:/ becomes a new front rounded vowel /ɔɵ/ and then /ɔʉ/ (a bit like in Australian English)
