ЦитироватьEverybody acquainted with colloquial English knows that Yes has alternations in pronunciation: it may lose its final and add a centralizing offglide to become Yeah, and it may pick up an alternative final consonant, an unreleased [p] (simulating the sudden closure of the lips at the end of the utterance), to make Yep.
