What does "ってっか" mean?


For full context:

> お父ちゃんも朝ごはん食ってっかね

My attempt at translation:

> Dad's having breakfast right now, too.

I'm having some trouble with "ってっか"? "って" is "という", right? But "っ" after "て",
I don't really understand.




The sentence is a contracted version of お父{とう}ちゃんも朝｛あさ｝ごはん食｛く｝ってるかね, 'Is Dad
(not necessarily the speaker's father in this case) having breakfast too?'

る into っ or ん (depending on the next sound) is a very common sound change in
casual speech.
