If I have to make a distinction, I pronounce aural as [awral] or [aural], pretty much as written. Oral is always [O:ral] and so's aural, most of the time.

Yeah, it sounds wrong to me, but a distinction has to be made sometimes, and pronouncing it as spelt makes it easier for people to understand. It's usually accompanied by 'hey this is obviously affected' body language so people don't think I'm just mispronouncing it like ['ɑ:tʃIpɛlego] all over again.

My "aural" has /O:/ [Q:] and my "oral" has /O:r/ [o_or\]. It's just a syllable bounary phonologically.

And Nortaneous, I told you what your /or/ is, a syllabic postalveolarized rounded lateralized preuvular approximant.

Another idiolect question: does anyone here make exclusive or preferential use of, say, anyone and everyone instead of anybody and everybody? These -one and -body endings are totally interchangeable, so I'm curious as to whether individuals actually make frequent use of both, or if they tend to prefer one over the other.

~70/30 maybe?
