Fun fact: the proper length of the glottal stop that represents double plosive (hard) consonants is 0.5 seconds.
This list looks a bit questionable.
[z] definitely doesn’t appear in any word whatsoever. It’s always pronounced as [s].
As a native speaker, I can’t come up with even two, let alone four, different sounds that would all be written with an H.
Then again, It took me 20 years from my first English lesson and a couple of years of using English as my work language to realise that V and W are different sounds in English… Rally English is not dead!
The vocabulary of describing these sounds is quite foreign to me, interesting
