Subject: AmEnglish external sandhi



[I have also posted this request to the LINGUIST List; my apologies to

those who therefore see it twice.]



I am looking for descriptions of external sandhi in American English,

especially such pronunciations as are often written "gotcha" (for

canonical "got you"). I will post a summary to the list if there is sufficient

interest.
