The examples from Sey’s (1973) data show what he describes as deviant usage in the pronunciation of RP vowels. The said vowels together with their example words and followed by the Ghanaian pronunciation are: /æ/ “cat”, /ɑ: / “palm”, /ǝ/ in the second syllable of “letter”, all three vowels are pronounced as /a/; /ʌ/ “bus”, /ɒ/ “hot”, both vowels are pronounced as /ɔ/; /u:/ “food”, /u/ “put”, both vowels are pronounced as /u:/; /ǝ:/ “first” pronounced /ɜ:/; /i:/ “meet” /i/ “six”, pronounced /i:/. Concerning the pronunciation of consonants, Sey identifies the reduction of final consonant clusters; for example, /fɜ:s / for “first”; and the devoicing of final consonants; for example, /si:f/ for “sieve” as characterising educated Ghanaian English. Simo Bobda (2000) largely confirms Sey’s observations with a few differentiations. The data from Bobda shows a correspondence between R.P. central vowels and front vowels in GhaE; where R.P. central vowels /ɜ:, ǝ, ʌ / are expected, GhaE pronunciation realizes the front vowels /ɛ, a/ respectively. Bobda’s perception of the pronunciation of the words “relative” and “callous” as asterisked below in GhaE is at variance with what is generally heard in the country. The words are pronounced “relative” [rɛleitiv] and “callous” [kalɔs].
