59 From the result we could see that the Korean speakers in some case could
produced v, but sometimes they found difficulties. They sometimes omitted the sound and replaced the sound in order to pronounce the words.
Fourthly, there is v within syllable final cluster. From 13 performances, all of them were pronounced inaccurately, for example lived
lɪvd
which was pronounced as l pdə, loved
ɪ
l vdl vd ʌ
ɒ
as
l p ɒ
, and themselves
ðəmselvz
as
demsels
. While, in the last one is ambisyllabic sound. There were 80 performances contained ambisyllabic sound where 48 performances or about 60
were accurate and 32 or 40 were inaccurate. The examples were every
evrɪ
which was pronounced as
evrɪ
,
evɪ
,
efrɪ
,
ewɪ
and
epɪ
, living
l v ŋ ɪ ɪ
as l v ŋ ɪ ɪ
and l p ŋ, and ever ɪ ɪ
evəʳ
as
evə
and
epə
. Then, the sub-f in word groups.6, type of word contained more than one sound in the different position, only had
one performance, the word survive
səva v ɪ
, which was pronounced inaccurately as
sə f ʳ ʌ
.

The former table showed the number of v appearance within word group. From total 117 performances, there are 101 performances were inaccurate, and
only 16 performances were accurate. In percentage, 86 was inaccurate and 14 was inaccurate. The total result brings the fact that Korean people often meet
hindrance when they should pronounce v within word group. If we observe the table, we can find three sub-type, v in syllable initial,
v in syllable final, and ambisyllabic sound. Firstly, from 9 appearances of v in syllable initial, 6 of them were accurate and 3 were inaccurate. The word groups
were vapop in
veɪpəʳ ɪn
, nevep amount
nevəʳ əmaʊnt
, ovep us
əʊvəʳ ʌs
, and ovep you
əʊvəʳjʊ
. All of the word groups were pronounced both accurately and inaccurately, except nevep amount which was only produced accurately. The word
group vapop in was pronounced asv
eɪpər ɪn
and p
eɪpər ɪn
, ovep us as
ovəlʌs
,
ovə rʌ
and
opəlʌ
, ovep you as
ovərjʊ
and
opərjʊ
, and the last,

61 nevep amount, only as
nevə rəment
. Those phonetic transcription we could see that v actually could be produced but in some case it is also difficult to be
produced. The second one is v in syllable final. There were 105 appearances which
were 10 appearances were performed accurately and 95 inaccurately. This number showed that v as the ending of syllable was difficult to be produced by Korean
speakers. The followings are the example of v in syllable final. The first section
will discuss the accurate pronunciation examples, whereas the next one discuss about inaccurate pronunciation examples. We starts with the accurate one. From
10 accurate performances, three performances will be taken to see more deeply. They were have a
hev ə
which was pronounced as
hevɒ
or [
hev vɒ
], move I
muːvaɪ
as
mʊvaɪ
or [
mʊv vaɪ
], and love you
lʌvjuː
as
lɒvjʊ
. Then, the example of inaccurate performances were but Ive
bət aɪv
was pronounced as
bərʌ
, leave me
liːv mɪ
as
lɪmɪ
or [
lɪm mɪ
], have become
hev bɪkʌm
as
hep bɪkʌm
, tpace of
treɪs ɒv
as
tre dʒɒ
, and because of you
bɪkɒzɒvjʊ
as
bɪkɒ.sɒfjʊ
and
bɪkɒ.sɒpjʊ
. For v in syllable final cluster, there were 3 performances which were
pronounced inaccurately. In this type, there was only one word group, themselves out. This word group was actually pronounced as
ðəmselvz aʊt
, but in this case,

62 the word group was pronounced in three ways,
dəmselzaʊt
,
dəmselsɔʊt
, and
dəselsɔʊt
. We could see that all v within those performances were omitted.
