But the reason people from Boston don't is because people from Britain don't. This is circular logic

why do br*ts add -er after words ending in -a?
>>
>>72511565


words that end in er, brits dont pronounce that r, they replace the er with a vowel, kinda like an A.

You do say "cods"
>>72512297
"cats"

>>72511565
Many of your countrymen pronounce the "r" as if it was something close to a "w", their tongue not 'cracking', for the lack of a better word, when pronouncing such a consonant.

Take this speech by Kenneth Branagh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-yZNMWFqvM&t=44

Notice how by the 0:46 mark he pronounces two regular English R's ("If we a' ma'ked to die) and a couple of seconds later, he comes up with a proper rolled R ("We aRe enough to")
>>
>>72511776
you mean like in the word "idea"?
it's an automatic thing they do if the next word starts with a vowel.
Idea of = IdeaR of
