Thread Name: Any glottal stops down your way?
Subject: RE: Any glottal stops down your way?
I'm surprised to see nothing from a Hull member. I grew up there and had a fairly ripe local accent, of which the dominant feature was the glottal stop (as my despairing parents were only too willing to tell me!).

I have pretty much lost it now after 20+ years away, but talking with natives reminds me, and I'm sure it will still be prevalent in the area.
