: general, or just about the pronunciation of a glottal stop as it begins a
: word. I, for one, would differently pronounce {bang chu'} [new love] and
: {bangchu'} [he loved her perfectly], yet the pause between the two words of
: the first example has nothing to do with a glottal stop.

: {bang chu' taH ghaH} [He endures new love]
: {bangchu'taH ghaH} [He always loves perfectly]
