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.

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]

Neither can I, but that would make more sense.

Nope, definitely ee for me. It's much more than a schwa.

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.

My name, Tom Zurinskas, as foespeld (phonetically spelled) in truespel is ~Taam Zerrinskis~ as my folks would say it.
~aa as in "Saab" ~er as in "her" ~in as in "in" (stressed after double consonant) ~kis as in "kiss"
From my data in truespel book 3, the ~er sound (as in "her") is spelled "er" about 70% of the time.
