- ANALYSIS OF JAMAICAN ENGLISH VOWELS AND CONSONANTS FROM REGGAE AND DUB MUSIC DARIO ZORRILLA JOSÉ BERIA Multidisciplinaria (Ciencias Naturales y Exactas) dub vowels reggae consonants jamaican nglish This article describes Jamaican English vowels and consonants through the analysis of fragments of dub and reggae music. Jamaican English is the product of a specific reality which makes it difficult for an untrained ear to understand it. The artists chosen for this article were Mutabaruka, Yellowman and Shabba Ranks. They are representatives of dub music, a style that was born out of reggae. These singers use both Jamaican English and Standard English in their songs. The most notorious fact of Jamaican pronunciation is the opening of the central reduced vowel in final position before “r”. For instance, [∂r] tends to be a clear [a] in words like “never” and “worker”. Another important feature is the closing of the diphthong [aU], thus giving rise to [ow]. It was also found that the diphthong [ow] becomes [wo]. Regarding consonants, no significant variation with Standard English was found. 2006 artículo científico 1315-0162 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=427739428012 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4277 SABER.
