Good work! It shows how extremely different is the pronunciation of vowels, specially the "o" vowel and the "r" sound between UK and North America. Anyone learning to fake a British accent, should study this first!

schwa and turned v are sometimes the same.

[enter19]

they're the same

[roygbiv330]

no they aren't. schwas of station, element, kitchen and turned vs of cut, sun, bus are quite different.

[enter19]

they're the same, but the turned V is stressed and the e turned is not!

[roygbiv330]

i see. thank you for your tip.

[capo32ba]

it´s not only a matter of stress!..Actually, they are pronounced differently. Certain organs of articulation are in different position for the sound realisation. They may sound the same for the untrained ear.
