Is anybody able to advise regarding the correct CF pronunciation for the following?
bhíteá
bhíodh
bheifeá
bheadh
I could approximate but I'd rather get something decisive. Many thanks. |

CF = Cois Fhairrige?
bhíteá [w'i:t'ɑ:]
bhíodh [w'i:χ] bhíodh sé/sí/sibh [w'i:t̥ s'e]
bheifeá [w'eɑ:] or [w'ɛɑ:]
bheadh [w'ɛχ] bheadh sé/sí/siad [w'ɛt̥ s'e]
le díol

Bearn, it seems you mix up phonetics and phonology: you give phonology here, although you should have written it between slashes. It is phonetics that you write between square brackets.
In phonetics you'd get this:
[ˈviːtʲɑˑ]
[ˈviː(ə)χ] , [ˈviːtʲ] before sé, sí, sibh, seisean, etc (ie. before personal pronouns that begin with s
[ˈvɛɑˑ]
[vɛχ] and [vɛtʲ] before sé, sí, etc.

Oh my goodness....I think these funny little squiggles, dashes and dots just made sense to me!!!
Go raibh maith agat, a Lughaidh!

Fáilte roimh cheartú, go deo.
