WRITING
Here are some loan-words written with y\ "eh" vowel.
| ry\dI | ready (Eng:) |
| gjy\lI | Jelly(Eng:) |
| hy\rI | Harry (Eng:) |
| rIhazy\ | rehearsal (Eng:) |
| Aky\dmI | Academy (Eng:) |
As noted in Lesson 16, - v\ could be read as [i], [e] or [eh]. Therefore - v\ and -y\ are interchangeable in some cases as in the sentence ending mv\ and my\, although the first spelling is found in the literary sentences and the latter in the colloquial sentences.
READING
Notice the weakened vowels and voiced consonants while you are listening to the reading lessons.
