An unstressed schwa vowel appears in order to break some consonant clusters, like in some first person singular verbs - e.g. ''øml'' "I walk" - as well as in all synthetic past 3rd plural forms in -''rtn''. The realization of this vowel varies regionally: in Vænfjørðin and all other Central dialects it is usually [ə] (e.g. [ˈøməl], ''fyrtn'' [ˈfʏɐ̯tən]); it is [ɯ] across the Eastern Wendlands (e.g. [ˈømɯl], [ˈfʏɐ̯tɯn]), while the Western Wendlands are more varied, with notably [u] in areas around Þyskarhøyfn (e.g. [ˈømul], [ˈfʏɐ̯tun]). | |||
