Findings 5: The phoneme i, o, u in Filipino words becomes ↔ or the schwa sound in Cuyonon.
| FILIPINO | CUYONON | MEANING |
| a:nim | an↔m | six |
| angkin | angk↔n | claim, usurp |
| a:lon | al↔n | small waves |
| gutom | g↔t↔m | hunger |
| kadyos | kady↔s | pigeon pea |
The schwa is described best by mr wiki. It is the inverted letter e which look like this ∂ – Schwa is the most common vowel sound in English, a reduced vowel in many unstressed syllables, especially if syllabic consonants are not used:
- like the ‘a’ in about /əˈbaʊt/
- like the ‘e’ in taken /ˈteɪkən/ and the /ðə/
- like the ‘i’ in pencil /ˈpensəl/
- like the ‘o’ in eloquent /ˈeləkwənt/
- like the ‘u’ in circus /ˈsɜː(ɹ)kəs/
- like the ‘y’ in sibyl /ˈsɪbəl/
But, we use letter e here in CP in instead of the schwa sound symbol ↔ or ∂. Ex. anem, getem, angken, alen, kadyes.
