That´s ok. Thanks for your reply.
I have another question. There is no /ae/ sound in my native tongue so when a native says CAT I hear a varinat of /e/ or /a/ - as in CUT (sorry, its not IPA). I think that the American speaker inclines to /e/ while the RP speaker to /a/, is it right?
But then, I sometimes hear the inclination to /e/ or /a/ in words like ANT and e.g. LATCH even though both are said by an RP speaker.
THANKS
