I never noticed this in my ownspeech--when I try; to do it ilt seems like
akind of anticipatory assimilation tothe /l/ of -LORE.

Subject: folk/folklore
An astute sophomore in my linguistics class yesterday asked why "folk" has
no /l/ but why the same element in "folklore" does. I had never noticed
this difference in my own pronunciation before, but I maintain it. Anybody
got a good explanation? My only guess is that "folklore" with an /l/ in
"folk" is a reading-influenced pronunciation.
