Pronunciation

@Mahagaja, Hintha: The "*" symbol didn't achieve the desired effect and it's pronounced /bjḭ~/, not /bɹḭ~/, anyway? --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 09:20, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

• I don't know myself how the word is pronounced. I'd sort of expect /bəɹḭ-/, but Hintha can tell us for sure. —Mahāgaja · talk 09:30, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
  • /bəɹḭ-/ can be easily respelled but I don't know if "*" needs to be made to work for clusters. --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 09:55, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

The typical pronunciation would be /bəɹḭtḭʃa̰/. Burmese speakers with stronger command of English may clip the last syllable. --Hintha (talk) 06:27, 8 April 2019 (UTC)

@Hintha, Mahagaja: Thanks, please check my latest respelling in diff: it now gives /bəɹḭtḭʃə/ and /bəɹḭtḭʃ/. --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 06:44, 8 April 2019 (UTC)

For the sound /ʃ(ə)/ I've changed 'ဗ'*ရိတိလျှ' to a more modern and standard respelling: ဗ'*ရိတိရှ' . --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 06:50, 8 April 2019 (UTC)

OK, but Hintha said above that the last syllable is typically /ʃa̰/, not /ʃə/. Native Burmese words never end in schwa; so I feel that we should be showing /bəɹḭtḭʃa̰/ first. —Mahāgaja · talk 09:18, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
