Talk:деморализовать

(Notifying Atitarev, Cinemantique, Useigor, Wikitiki89, Stephen G. Brown, Guldrelokk, Fay Freak, Tetromino, Per utramque cavernam): Can this have [дэ]? Avanesov says [дэ] и [де] but I don't know whether to trust him. Benwing2 (talk) 02:52, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

@Benwing2: All де- and дез- prefixes can be pronounced both ways. --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 03:14, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

@Atitarev Thanks. However, Ivanova disagrees, and says for example that депорти́ровать has only [де], likewise демилитаризова́ть, декомпре́ссор and a host of other words. Benwing2 (talk) 03:18, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

@Benwing2: You're right. [де] sounds much more natural and common to me. [дэ] is probably too rare or non-standard or on this word. --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 00:41, 19 January 2019 (UTC)
