A notable feature of Newfoundland English, deriving from [[Hiberno-English]], is the [[fricative]] sounds {{IPAslink|ð}} and {{IPAslink|θ}} are commonly [[fortited]] to become [[plosive]]s {{IPAblink|d}} and {{IPAblink|t}}, respectively, a process known as [[th-stopping]].{{cite conference |last1=Van Herk |first1=Gerard |last2=Childs |first2=Becky |last3=Thorburn |first3=Jennifer |year=2009 |orig-year=2007 |chapter=Identity Marking and Affiliation in an Urbanizing Newfoundland Community |pp=85-94 |editor-last=Cichocki |editor-first=Wladyslaw |title=Papers from the 31st Annual Meeting of the Atlantic Provinces Linguistic Association (PAMAPLA 31 / ACALPA 31) |volume=31 |url=https://www.unb.ca/fredericton/arts/_assets/documents/fr/vol31_2007.pdf |place=[[University of New Brunswick]] & [[St. Thomas University (Canada)|Saint Thomas University]], Fredericton, New Brunswick |publisher=Atlantic Provinces Linguistic Association |issn=0831-3520}} For example, "that thing over there" becomes "dat ting over dere". One study of the [[Petty Harbour]] dialect showed that men tend to have {{IPA|/ð/}} stopping more often than women within this region, but that is not the case with function words like "this, them, that, these." Middle-aged women were found to start {{IPA|/ð/}}-stopping when they say function words, which would thus change to "dis, dem, dat, dese."{{rp|86-88}}
