Give Birth

We give Lolly credit, so top speak, for pronouncing an H [ h ] in this word, between the Barred L [ ɫ ] and the W [ w ].  It is not so much that we hear it, as that we cannot be sure that we are not hearing it.  Jacobs was consistent across different examples of this word in phonetically transcribing an [ h ] between the Barred L [ ɫ ] and the W [ w ].
