help with Irish name

Hi Jorgen,

I was wondering if you could help me with the pronunciation of the name Bébhinn / Bebhionn. Taking the syllables separately, I get [ˈbʲeː-vʲiːn̪ˠ] (that is, with a YAY vowel and an YEE vowel), but I don't know if the EE vowel reduces to a schwa. Or if the two spellings Bébhinn and Bebhionn are actually equivalent.

Thanks, — kwami (talk) 01:11, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kwami,

Bébhinn and Bebhionn are the same name with the former being the modern spelling and the latter being the old Irish. It is pronounced BAY-FINN or BAY-FIJONN in Ulster Irish when using the Old Irish spelling. Jorgenpfhartogs (talk) 01:17, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
