Glides and approximants

[h] occurs in place of [j] or [w] in CFE (and other varieties of Afrikaans-influenced English in South Africa). W is replaced by [hw] in wh- words in GhE. /j/ occurs occasionally as [ɤ] in WSAfE. Clusters of /t/ plus /j/ and /d/ plus /j/ occur as [ʧ ʤ​] occasionally in InSAfE and other varieties of South African English. There is dropping of /j/ (yod-dropping) in NigE, GhE and CamE. W and V occur interchangeably in StHE (frequently), occasionally in IndE and rarely in InSAfE.
