I’m used to GOOSE so fronted it gets parsed as FLEECE, but this morning a young woman was ordering coffee with “oat” milk and the GOAT was so fronted, even *in context* I had to backtrack to unparse it as “eight”

like [eʊ] or [œ:]?

@ancientsounds more along the lines of [e̠ɪ̹], if you take away some spreading from the [e]. There's a *lot* of unrounding in the offglide.

@ancientsounds I don't have a FACE token from her, but I would think it's FACE doing spreading rather than GOAT having barely any discernible rounding

I've heard [eʏ] with little rounding in the offglide in posh SBE
