Schwa[edit]

@Vahagn Petrosyan FYI, WA uses a schwa here. It's pretty cool how your EA audio doesn't use a schwa at all. Is a schwa added colloquially in EA? Hovsepig (talk) 18:31, 16 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Both pronunciations are possible. --Vahag (talk) 08:09, 17 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Aspiration[edit]

@Vahagn Petrosyan Khachatrian 1988:106 reports that before fricatives, stops are aspirations, such as ապստամբել as փս, ապշել as փշ. She also reports it for կս պշ տս թս. I can't hear aspiration for any word in WA, but do you agree with her judgments? Hovsepig (talk) 04:27, 21 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Hovsepig: that is probably true, but at the moment I don't want to spend time on encoding these marginal rules. --Vahag (talk) 16:16, 21 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
