Approximants are sounds that sit somewhere in between vowels and consonants. They are widely referred to as "semi-vowels" or "semi-consonants", and they are strange in many ways.

In this episode I explore 10 weird things about approximants with an actual list:

1) The name APPROXIMANT

2) Double articulations of /r/ and /w/

3) Silent letters

4) J ≠ /j/

5) Rhoticity

6) Intrusive /r/

7) Dark l

8) Diphthongs

9) Devoicing

10) Tapped /r/

I also answer a question about cockney /r/.
