When a Scot pronounces water, better, or bottle -- wa'er, be'er, or bo'le -- the sound is precisely that of the catch; and I think we may go beyond, and say, that if such a population could be isolated, and this mispronunciation should become the rule, it might prove the first stage of transition from t to k, which is the disease of Polynesian languages.

In Harry Potter Ron said: "Aaah, 'at's be'er"." followed by "with his mouth full of mashed potatoes", probably meaning to say "that's better". He spoke unlclearly cause his mouth was full with food.
