Vowels collapsing.
My Hebrew Bible prof collapses the vowel in "caught" so it sounds like "cot", and so the other day when he was doing a close reading of the Tower of Babel story from Genesis in class and was talking about how much was just hinted at or left unexplained, he was like, "This text is knotty, and when I say that, I mean enigmatic, and not as in Maye West."

Hmm... I think I must collapse the vowel too. How do you pronounce it?
