Pronunciation[edit]

Does anybody have a reliable source which confirms the pronunciation /ˈpɑˌtwɑ/? I've never seen it anywhere. Tashi (talk) 22:29, 14 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The audio file unhelpfully stresses it on the second syllable. This is what happens sometimes when you ask someone to pronounce a word naturally, they get so self-conscious they pronounce it very unnaturally. Oh, sorry in response to your point I agree I'm not familiar with that pronunciation. Renard Migrant (talk) 22:41, 14 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
