An audio file would be very useful here
[edit]Any language article is confusing, are there any freely-available files to add to the page so we can hear what "trap vowel" and "dress vowel" mean? Or maybe a Wikipedian would like to create one? Gatemansgc (TɅ̊LK) 17:23, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

- @Gatemansgc: alright, I have added an audio file which I believe will be acceptable for this purpose. ―Howard • 🌽33 13:55, 18 February 2026 (UTC)

I concur. How can speech patterns be discussed without examples? Janice Vian, Ph.D. (talk) 15:57, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
Cause of gay lisp
[edit]Maybe gay lisp is caused by some mouth/teeth anatomical idiosyncrasy or deformity occurring frequently in male homosexuals. Just check footage of Roy Cohn (and others alike) speaking. He had such a weird mouth/teeth and he sure lisped...—AnnaBruta (talk) 21:58, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
