Sorry, meant slashes there. And the /E/ is probably more like /ej/.
The thorough Anglicization is something like [h&l@peI)njoU] or some
such; I just meant that I use an /e/-ish vowel rather than an /i/-ish
one.

It does in my 'lect; "hen", "pen", etc. have no diphthongalization...
Where [E] can't occur for me is before /g/ or /N/.
