@Angr, Wyang Hi. According to MED, it should be pronounced /ljáʊɴ/. I tried various respellings, it doesn't work. Please check and help fixing, when you have time. --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 01:04, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

Hi Anatoli, it's fixed now (please see Template:my-IPA#Minor respelling tricks). Wyang (talk) 07:17, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

@Wyang Thanks, Frank. Would a trick also work for ကျူးဘား (kyu:bha:, “Cuba”) (now a redirect to က္ယူးဘား (ka.yu:bha:)) to give /kj-/ instead of /t͡ɕ-/? --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 07:53, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

Umm, it doesn't accept /kj/ currently. Is this pronounced as /kj/ or nativised as /t͡ɕ/? Wyang (talk) 07:55, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

It's not easy to find pronunciations. Not sure but I found another spelling - က္ယူးဘား. Should the pronunciation show the default or /kj/ in your opinion? Also @Angr.

I have also created ကာဂစ်စတန် (kagacca.tan, “Kyrgyzstan”), which better better matches the original pronunciation than ကာဂျစ်စတန် (kagyacca.tan) (which seems like a misreading of the English term) and the former was also used on BBC Burmese. Not sure if Google hits for the latter count as correct. There's nothing in Google Books for either. --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 08:08, 28 March 2017 (UTC)
