The schwa vowel is the most retarded thing to me

I’m not an IPA autist. Languages where this phoneme is present?

>>212203633
Japanese and Turkish are the biggest ones I think.

doesn't brazilian portuguese have that though?

>>212205331
No, we don't

It's like a schwa seasoned with "u" phoneme

EFLs are phonetically impaired, don't get hung up on it

We have /ɐ/ which is lower than schwa /ə/
It's pronounced exactly as the German unstressed -er like in the word "Wasser"

phonetics matter in most languages though, you have to get hung up on it.

You need to go to Australia to pronounce it properly
