Questão 1759008

replacing the alveolar consonant by the lateral approximant is the strongest trait of the character’s speech, which in English comes with the labiovelar glide – that’s an incongruity of translation.

Jimmy Five’s incapacity of pronouncing in Portuguese the sound of the /r/ phoneme, replacing it with the phoneme /l/, is also present in Maggy’s speech.

this choice for the labiovelar glide instead of the alveolar lateral approximant answers to the domestication of the character’s phonological disorder.

the character’s speech disorder might occur with any phonemic pair, at random, which justifies the freedom in choosing another consonant, distinct from the source text.
