Yes, but syllabic r and l in fact are syllabic [r@] and [l@], they would be impossible to pronounce otherwise. |

Are you able to pronounce, for example, [d] or [l] separately? Don't you actually pronounce [d@], [l@]? One of my old English textbooks actually defined schwa just as "the sound you unwillingly pronouce when you try to pronounce a consonant separately". |

[d] is a plosive, not a continuant - you can't sustain it. [l] can be pronounced by itself, for as long as you want, just like (for example) [s] or [f] or [r]. Also nasals such as [n] and [m]. So something like the famous "k" for dative has to be [k@] or [@k] if there's no vowel nearby - but "s" for instrumental can be simply [s], which sounds different from [s@] or [@s]. I think for the "pronounce a consonant separately" you have to distinguish between continuants and plosives. In English, in words such as "button" or "middle" I have two pronunciations: one with shwa, and one with just (nasal/lateral release and) the syllabic consonant at the end. Perhaps I should record what I think I say in such cases. Edited by pne, Dec 10 2010, 12:55 PM.

Ru. мысль has two syllables, but no schwa as far as I can tell |

Those sound like "p@rvi, m@rvi" or (as someone said before) "pörvi, mörvi" to me. Not what I had expected to hear! |

Yes, I said pörvi and mörvi. So the actual pronounciation of BCS први is пьрви. But when you speak fast you can also hear prrrrvi but never pr@vi. |

Here's my attempt at talking about syllabic consonants: http://conlang.mizinamo.org/slovianski/slovianski-syllabic-consonants.ogg (0:38, Ogg Vorbis) I pronounce syllabic m, l, r, and try to say "vznesl, klesl; prvi, mrvi; krk; vlk". I also say "middle" and "button" two different ways. |

Sustainability is a different concept - yes, I can sustain [l], [r] or [ s ] for as long as I want, but at the end I'll still pronounce a schwa, since this is the sound produced when you have just relaxed the tongue yet the vocal folds are still active. In Dražen's video I hear [pr@vi] or maybe [prrrrr@vi], but never [prvi] or [prrrrrvi]. Anyway, whoever of us is right, this discussion itself shows how tricky it is to assign some official meaning to syllabic liquids and/or schwa. |

I hear: [mmmmmmmmmm@], [llllllll@], [rrrrrrr@], [vznesl@], [klesl@], [prrr@vi], [mrrrr@vi], [krrrr@k], [vllll@k], [midl@], [bat@n], [midllll@], [bat:@n] |

he did not say [m:@] he just said [m:] because he didn't open his mouth when he ended the sound what kind of a vowel is said with a closed mouth?! |

See http://s8.zetaboards.com/Slovianski/topic/8249337/.
The basic principle in the case of y is quite simple: write it if you know when to use it, otherwise don't. The same goes also for the soft consonants. As a rule, I think the orthography of Standard Slovianski should be as inclusive as possible - it's easier to turn kosť into kost than the other way round. Likewise, you can turn all y's in a document into i, and you get a valid document. The opposite won't work. If a South Slav reads puť or byti, he'll know what is meant. If a North Slav reads put and dimiti, he'll have to think first. So Standard Slovianski should be as precise as possible, and basically include everything that can be represented in Cyrillic without resorting to ҍ, ѧ and the like (which is regrettable, because the difference between ě and e is quite crucial). The only exceptions are ś and ź, mostly because they rare and not supported by a majority anyway. Y is supported by 3.5 votes (and a vast majority of the speakers). Also, it's weird to have lots of soft consonants and no y; that's another example of a "package deal". In the case of TraT/TroT it's different: you cannot treat one as a simplification of the other. And ĺ can't be represented in Cyrillic, therefore we must make a choice, either a Northern-biased or a Southern-biased one. Because practically all other solutions are already Northern-based, I thought in this particular case we might settle the score a bit. Besides, I noticed that most Russians here on the forum prefer TraT as well. Which doesn't even surprise me, since Russian is full with -oro-/-ra- doublets. So they know already that there is a relationship between those two. So if they see "krava" and don't recognise it immediately, they don't have to dig deep.
Ahem, that's something I don't agree about at all. If you just look at speakers, we might as well use Russian only. Interslavic should be there for all Slavs, not only for part of them. So yes, half-way between East, South and West, that's exactly where Slovianski should be IMO.
Ouch! If that is really the case, then we have done something very wrong! At least, that's my feeling. I wouldn't call a solution with 3 vote "exotic", though.
Hm, here you got a point! ![]() But let's move on to syllabic liquids...
Yeah, that's a good way of putting it. Although you didn't mention the biggest disadvantage of 2: zero votes. And indeed, terg etc. look VERY strange to everybody. So as far as I'm concerned, we'll have to choose between 1 and 3. Three is the solution with most votes. But one is the more inclusive solution, because "mertvy" and "torg" can be flavoured into "mrtvy" and "trg" without a problem, but flavouring back isn't possible. This is actually quite a good argument in f(l)avour of the old solution.
Hmmmm, I'm not really afraid of that. However, you have a point regarding the location of the schwa. [sm@rt] still means "death" to me, but [smr@t] is more like "stink".
Well, the truth is, if we'd REALLY go for simplicity, then we'd need schwa in all positions where we have č or ň. As Dražen pointed out, they merge in all the Western languages (BCMS a, other languages e). Had we followed that model, then we have had mǝrtvy, pǝlny, pǝs, dostatǝk, dobrǝgo, hlĺpǝc, obǝjdti, sǝglĺsno etc.
Yeah. Well, all in all, it's not THAT big an issue to me. It would have some advantages to treat syllabic R and L the same way, even though most natlangs treat them differently. I don't really buy the argument that it's ugly. If I write: THE REACTOR'S MLTING DOWN... EVRYTHING BRNS! you'll understand me, right? No WTF-syndrom. But if it really makes things harder for Northerners without actually making it easier for Southerners, then we might as well stick to ER/OR/OL. [čćч] |

not quite the same advantages since ьl and ъl have the same reflexes so it's always ol no matter the source ьr becomes er, ъr becomes or so simplifying to r might have an advantage I have become fully convinced Gabriel is having hallucinations about schwas being everywhere, though |
