Dillard says the AAVE form of "desk" is /dEs/, pl. /dEs@z/. /&ks/ is kind of anomalous for AAVE anyway, in that it goes against the usual tendency to simplify final consonant clusters. I myself say /&st/ for "asked", BTW. -- Schlingt dreifach einen Kreis vom dies! || John Cowan <jcowan@...> Schliesst euer Aug vor heiliger Schau, || http://www.reutershealth.com Denn er genoss vom Honig-Tau, || http://www.ccil.org/~cowan Und trank die Milch vom Paradies. -- Coleridge (tr.
