tom zurinskas stranger Registered: 02/25/09 Posts: 4 Loc: W Palm Beach area, FL USA	I enjoy this is site. I see it uses "no-name-spell" for phonetics. (I call it this because it has no name as far as I can find out). That notation is useful because it's English friendly with no special symbols. Truespel is as well. It's indicated by a tilde(~). See below peripatetic PRONUNCIATION:(per-uh-puh-TET-ik) As I hear it spoken in truespel notation it's ~pairuputtetik ~pair as in "pair" ~up as in "up" ~ut as in "ut" etc. Note thet stress is first syllable or after a double consonant.

tsuwm Carpal Tunnel Registered: 04/03/00 Posts: 10463 Loc: this too shall pass	Originally Posted By: tom zurinskas peripatetic PRONUNCIATION:(per-uh-puh-TET-ik) maybe it would help to specify that the 'uh's are meant to be schwas: \'per-ə-pə-'te-tik\ [I can't get a schwa to come out]

tom zurinskas stranger Registered: 02/25/09 Posts: 4 Loc: W Palm Beach area, FL USA	That's the problem with present phonetics (IPA SAMPA). Not computer friendly. Not English friendly as well. So folks use no-name-spell as a work around. Linguists are not enamored of no-name-spell so they haven't named it. I wouldn't use "per" (which rhymes with purr) to represent the first syllable. As the speaker said it, it was "pair", which I think is the right pronunciation. Actually schwa stands for many sounds so it's not accurate. With truespel I've spelled out all schwas. 63k words are respelled in the truespel.com converter.
