[edit]

Hello Al Silonov, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like it here and decide to stay.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

One of the more important ways you can help Wikipedia is by cleaning up articles in the cleanup backlog.

If you need any help, see the help pages and glossary, add a question to the help desk, or ask me on my talk page. You may also find me on my personal blog or xMule's website.

I hope you will enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian. Good luck! — HopeSeekr of xMule

China administrative regions

[edit]

Hi... just wondering, which method of Cyrillization are you using to translate Chinese names into Russian?

For example, for Wang Lequan, the secretary of Xinjiang, you have Ван Лекуань, but the "qu-" isn't pronounced as "ku-" there. Also, the "le" isn't "lie".

Perhaps you would be interested in this? Cyrillization of Chinese from Pinyin

Wang Lequan -> Ван Лэцюань.

Thanx for your advice. Sure, you are quite right. In fact I've got no method of my own. Normally I try to check up the names, but being in a hurry or tired I sometimes fail to do that - which is the case here. Fortunately, there is the community and folks who can correct it ;))...

It's Bod-rang-skyong-ljongs. Even the German Wikipedia shows "Bod-rang-skyong-ljongs" in Tibetan letters. -- ran (talk) 12:15, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Russian phonology

[edit]

The main thing I'm trying to maintain at Russian phonology is the consistency of transcription with what the sourcing says. As Russian phonology states,

  • /e/ is [ɛ] word-initially
  • /e/ is [e̞~ɛ̝] after (but not before) soft consonants
  • /e/ is [e] before or between soft consonants

Right now, there's a contradiction in souricing regarding the conditions of /o/ centering to [ɵ̞]: an older source says it's between soft consonants and a more recent source says it's just when following one. This could be a change between 1969 and now. What I don't know, though, is if this means that /u/[ʉ] and /a/[æ] are still only between soft consonants or if these allophones can occur when simply following one. — Ƶ§œš¹ [aɪm ˈfɻɛ̃ⁿdˡi] 00:24, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you are interested in what the native speaker's experience sais, then believe me: I and those Russians whom I happened to listen to during my almost 50-years life pronounce [ʉ], [æ], [e] and so on (practically) irrespective of the following sound - all is determined only by the preceding. So, in тётя, тёрка, тёк, тёлка, мумиё, плётка and so on - ё is everywhere the same: [ɵ]. And in ряд, дя́дя, пря́лка, я́дра, пя́льцы, ноздря́ - all the stressed я are the same: [æ], though followed by both soft and hard consonants or by nothing at all. --Al Silonov 09:45, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
The same goes for /e/ --Al Silonov 09:47, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
As to /e/ "word-initially" - it really doesn't exist in Russian; in words like есть, е́льник, е́дкий the letter е is always "j-ted" phonetically ([je]), but the vowel itself is always undoubtedly [e]. --Al Silonov 09:54, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
