The EXPLORE lexical set is used to support unstressed KIT vowels that have split
from the KIT vowel and merged with the DRESS vowel in some accents. This includes
`ex-` words.
The ROSES lexical set is used for words that are KIT in some accents and COMMA
in others. The degree to which this occurs varies between accents and speakers.
The RABBIT lexical set is used for unstressed KIT vowels. Some American accents
have merged this with the COMMA lexical set, such that `rabbit` and `abbot`
rhyme.
