Just some things that I'd like to get clear; I've seen various descriptions for these, but I'm curious as to what the prescribed rules are in Greco-Bohairic:


1. How is the placement of stress determined?

2. Are there any circumstances under which vowels are reduced to schwa?

3. Is the gamma ever pronounced as a fricative? (Like the ghain in Arabic.)

4. Is the tav supposed to be pronounced /d/ following the nei?

5. Is the seema ever pronounced /z/?

6. When, if ever, is the alpha pronounced as in "cat"?



Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure if any of this is even relevant to your specific questions, but I found this thread: http://www.coptichymns.net/PNphpBB2-vie ... -6471.html
