The letter ր changes it's sound Hi, I was wondering about the letter ր and the way it sounds at the end of a word. I found 3 words that end with ր and it has 3 different sounds (to my ear): t, r, sh հայր - ր sounds like t դուստր - ր sounds like r ջրնարար - ր sounds like sh Is it really that the letter sounds different? Or is it just a matter of pronouncing? Thanks, TlalitThanks Kasper, All of the ր sound the same in Armenian??? I am listening to a recording of those words and they sound so different in each of the words above. I fixed the last word that you told me to check its spelling. It's supposed to mean "a builder" maybe? ջինարար and in the recording it sounds like : Shinarash. How would you pronounce it? Thanks, Tlalit

Thanks Lilit. I am not really using any speller. I just wrote the word on my own and I replaced the "շա" with the "ջե". Thanks!!! It is a good idea to have a speller so I will be notified of mistakes like that. I wonder why it doesn't work on its own since I installed Armenian letters on my laptop...

there is not a word ջինարար in Armenian, I think it is a mistake... actually we have շինարար (shinarar) as Kasper said... what kind of speller do you use?

p.s. շինարար is that (starting with [շ]), which stands for constructor, industrial worker

Actually, there are some signs similar to latin [r]. these are [ռ], [ր], [ղ].. but all those are considered different letters. I was talking about [ր], which sounds the same in every way – softer. I can write you transcriptions for those letters, but I don't think that's going to make any sense. I pronounce them to Skype to my students for several hangouts..this is how they get the difference of so many similar sounds in Armenian. Good luck!
