Mongoose rhyme

Mongoose is stressed on the first syllable, so that syllable must be included in the rhyme. —CodeCat 13:28, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

I will note that next time adding a rhyme word. Nayrb Rellimer (talk) 15:45, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

Template:grc-IPA

Can you please not substitute this with the old template? Instead, work with the Ancient Greek editors to fix the template. —CodeCat 01:54, 17 October 2015 (UTC)

*Hā́pš

Nayrb, *s also became *š in PII before *bʰ and *p. Compare Avestan 𐬁𐬟𐬱 (āfš). More importantly though, you changed a bluelink to a redlink. In such cases, please address your concerns to entry itself, and not simply the link. Thanks. --Victar (talk) 13:24, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

Egyptian vowel reconstruction in ḏbt

Hello. I noticed that at ḏbt you reconstructed the second vowel in the word as /a/ based on ‘evidence from Proto-Semitic morphology’, with further reference to kmt. Could you elaborate on what evidence you’re drawing from, how it applies to Egyptian, and what comparison you’re drawing with kmt? Regarding the latter question, the second vowel in kmt is the vowel of the feminine ending -t, forming a feminine singular perfective active participle from the verb km; on the other hand, ḏbt is not suffixed with -t at all, and the final t in the word is part of the (masculine) root. So I’m a bit puzzled by what comparison you mean given that the morphology of the two words is completely different. Thanks! — Vorziblix (talk · contribs) 22:52, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

I guess I wasn't paying attention to the grammatical gender in the entry. If the noun were feminine, then an /a/ vowel would have been reconstructed in the second syllable.Rigognos Molinarios (talk) 23:41, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

Ah, thanks. (And sorry if I was a bit brusque above.) Even for feminine nouns, though, /a/ isn’t guaranteed to be the vowel preceding the final -t in Egyptian; Coptic and loanword evidence makes clear, for example, that pt had /i/ and wpwt had /u/. Semitic comparison isn’t reliable in this case. — Vorziblix (talk · contribs) 00:17, 10 December 2019 (UTC)

Strange sequence /ɝɹ/

Hello, Rigognos Molinarios: I am a little puzzled by this entry: https://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=worry&diff=prev&oldid=34556799 I have never seen the sequence /ɝɹ/ before. Is it redundant? Greetings, --Adelpine (talk) 17:26, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

I wasn't sure how to indicate the r-colored vowel in this word. It is clearly distinct from the vowel /ɜ/ in the RP pronunciation of bird, but the word is still perceived as two syllables. Rigognos Molinarios (talk) 22:44, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

The following paragraph taken from a paper, https://www.e-csd.org/journal/view.php?number=579 says

"Ten monolingual female adult speakers of Western Canadian English produced 36 target words containing two rhotic monophthongs ([ɝ] and [ɚ]), and four rhotic diphthongs (/ɪ͡ɚ/, /ɛ͡ɚ/, /ɔ͡ɚ/, and /ɑ͡ɚ/) in both open and closed syllables. Acoustic analyses were performed to extract F2 and F3 values across the vowel duration, as well as the duration for each vowel."

It says that [ɝ] is a rhotic monophtong. Therefore you don't need to add [ɹ] to indicate that [ɝ] is an r-colored vowel.

I don't use the symbol of diphtong because "In words such as start, many speakers have r-coloring only in the coda of the vowel, rather than as a simultaneous articulation modifying the whole duration. This can be represented in IPA by using a succession of two symbols such as [ɑɚ] or [ɑɹ], rather than the unitary symbol [ɑ˞]" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-colored_vowel)

Are you a non-rhotic English speaker?--Adelpine (talk) 16:58, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

My native English is rhotic and has features found in the midwest of the United States; for example, cot-caught merger of /ɑ/ and /ɔ/, dental flapping in unstressed positions as /ɾ/, and t-glottalization before syllabic /n̩/.Rigognos Molinarios (talk) 22:40, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
