English[edit]

Isn't this also the sound at the end of the English word "heads"?·:RedAugust 20:20, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No. That is analyzed as a stop + fricative. It's a subtle distinction and phonetically is very similar. Æµ§œš¹ _{[aɪm ˈfɻɛ̃ⁿdˡi]} 00:41, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They may say it, and while I do accept that, I still can't really believe it completely (and still believe I use the affricate!). It seems to be a pervasive thought among native English speakers that this really is [d͡z]! I wonder why? Double sharp (talk) 14:38, 15 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We should mention this in the article: why it's not considered part of English. --Makkachin (talk) 01:53, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

equal sign[edit]

[d͡z] in german[edit]

I believe [d͡z] is at least regionally present in German. For example the "z" in Zara (the shop) is pronounced by some with [t͡s] and by some with [d͡z]. This is personal experience, so I don't have any sources to cite. IDon'tFindAName (talk) 23:57, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
