The contrast between /v/ and /w/ is often neutralized or merged in the Eastern Caribbean. That is, many dialects of Caribbean English (e.g. Bahamian, Bermudan, and Vincentian) may alternate [w], [ß] (the voiced bilabial fricative), or [ʋ] (the voiced labiodental approximant) for words which in metropolitan varieties begin with [v], e.g. village [wɪlɪʤ]. This feature may be related to component dialect varieties of English heard in the Caribbean in the 18th century which contain this same alternation (e.g. Cockney) or possibly to African languages that lacked the /v/ segment. Some Anglophone Caribbean communities may reveal /b/ where metropolitan Anglophone varieties display /v/, e.g. vex “angry” [bεks], river [rɪba], and love [lΛb].
