Talk:կոշկոճել

@Vahagn Petrosyan It seems that շկ generally devoices in WA, such in կոշկոճել, կոշկակար, and բժիշկ (both for me and Sakabedoyan. However, this word is an exception and surfaces as [goʃgo...] for Sakabedoyan. It seems the cause is that the word is reduplicated. I manually had to insert [g] to block the script from applying the rule. Is that ok? PS: It looks like we're discovering WA phonology rules together. There's a dearth of published work on allophony in WA, so cool for us. Hovsepig (talk) 22:20, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

@Hovsepig: manually inserting IPA characters is a bad idea. Cheat like this.

The coverage of Armenian on Wiktionary is indeed unique. I have found that many professional linguists rely on it. Keep up the good work! --Vahag (talk) 08:25, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

@Vahagn Petrosyan: Oh that's a clever cheat! Is it just a normal dot (like on an English keyboard) or is it a special IPA symbol? Hovsepig (talk) 08:27, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

@Hovsepig: it is the normal dot. IPA optionally uses it to show syllabification. --Vahag (talk) 08:30, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

@Vahagn Petrosyan: Ah okay, I can never tell whether some diacritic is a normal keyboard symbol like : vs. the annoyingly identical-ish geminate symbol. Thanks for verifying Hovsepig (talk) 08:31, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
