Subject: consonant frequency
I am currently working on a statistical analysis of pronunciation among
various groups in Chicago and was wondering if anyone knows of a
publication that gives the frequency of phonemes or clusters in onset or
coda position in any variety of spoken or written English. The only
reference I've found so far dates from 1923.
With thanks in anticipation
