1) The distinction between dental and alveolar stops is sociolinguistically significant in Ireland. All speakers can hear this difference clearly and the use of alveolar for dental stops in the THIN and THIS lexical sets is highly stigmatized.
2) Fashionable Dublin English speakers may have a slight afflication of syllable-initial /t-/, as in two [tsu:].
3) The allophony of syllable-coda and intersyllabic /t/ is quite complicated. With conservative supraregional speakers the apico-alveolar fricative is found. With younger supraregional speakers a flap occurs. In popular Dublin English the lenition of /t/ continues through a glottal stop to /h/ and frequently to zero, especially in word-final position. In many forms of northern Irish English, final alveolar stops may be unreleased.
4) The merger of [w] and [M] is increasingly frequent with supraregional speakers so that word pairs like which and witch now consist of homophones.
5) It is merely a coincidence that fashionable Dublin English shares a flap and a retroflex /r/ with northern Irish English.
