A typical glass of fernet con coca from Argentina

Created on 29 May but expanded on 18 June so happy to accept as an expansion. Hook is sourced inline. QPQ is not needed as nominator only has 2 credits. No close paraphrasing. Picture licence is fine, though I'm not sure what distinguishes it from a photo of a regular coke. Good to go. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 15:01, 18 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I highly disagree on the approximant at the end of Fernet. At least here in Argentina (and I'm guessing in most variants of Spanish) that final 't' is definitely a voiceless plosive (unaspirated, like in most Romance languages, but still voiceless and fortis). It might be elided, it could be replaced with a glottal stop, but it's NEVER an approximant. ~2026-40049-92 (talk) 13:21, 15 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
