Talk:អូតូប៊ុស


 * Hi. It must be difficult to establish but is this an exception where the final "-s" is pronounced? Sealang says yes (Headley97). --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 23:26, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure about this, Anatoli. There is an audio at Tovnah, but it is too unclear. I'd imagine that both pronunciations would exist. (Btw, I think we should distinguish /oo/ and /ou/ spelt with អូ/ូ, by respelling those with /oo/ in their ោ forms.) Wyang (talk) 00:46, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
 * : Do you mean something like ? I am not sure when to choose "oo" and "ou", if Sealang just had "oo".
 * Does the current module allow making the final -s? --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 01:26, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Sorry, please ignore the /oo/ and /ou/ part. I think I was mistaken. The module doesn't allow a final -s... well until we can find audios that can show otherwise. :) Wyang (talk) 01:48, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I finally got around to asking a native Khmer about this. He says that is pronounced [ɔɔ.tou.ɓʌɦ]. —Stephen (Talk) 01:24, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
 * : Thank you, Stephen. Is ever pronounced as /a/? I can't find /ʌ/ in Khmer phonology. The spelling for this pronunciation must be something like . As for the first and the 2nd syllable, I'm still not 100% sure if we need to respell Sealang's "oo" as "ou" and when but sometimes the automatic transliteration produces "ou", as in this case. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 02:26, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
 * No, not /a/. There's no /ʌ/, but people often confuse /ʌ/ with /ə/ or /ɨ/, among others. I assume he meant [ŭ] or [u] (although I can't be sure, because I don't understand the phonetic system that we're using for Khmer). —Stephen (Talk) 03:07, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
