Notes
[संपादित करें]- ↑ Belarusian makes contrasts between palatalized ("soft") and unpalatalized ("hard") consonants. Palatalized consonants, denoted by a superscript j, ‹ ʲ› , are pronounced with the body of the tongue raised toward the hard palate, in a manner similar to the articulation of the y sound in yes. /j/ is also considered soft. /d, t, d͡ʒ, t͡ʃ, r, ʃ, ʒ/ are always hard.
- 1 2 3 /v/ and /l/ merge into /w/ ‹ў› when in the syllable coda.
- 1 2 3 Unstressed /ɛ/ and /ɔ/ are reduced to [a]. Unlike Russian, this is reflected in writing.
- 1 2 [i] and [ɨ] are in complementary distribution: [i] occurs word-initially and after soft consonants; [ɨ] occurs after hard consonants.
- ↑ The "soft" vowel letters ‹я, е, і, ё, ю› represent a /j/ plus a vowel when initial or following other vowels.
- ↑ Nine Belarusian consonants can be contrastively geminated: /d͡zʲː, lʲː, nʲː, sʲː, ʃː, t͡sʲː, t͡ʃʲː, zʲː, ʒː/.
