Line 95:
I disagree with the above editor, you certainly can’t say that a schwa is unnatural in English. A schwa in Scala would make the most sense if you don’t stress the final syllable, same as you would in Java /ˈdʒɑːvə/ and koala /koʊˈɑːlə/. I don’t know of any case of a syllable final /ʌ/ other than monosyllabic words such as 'pho', and even then this is only true of some dialects of American English. I don’t know of any dialect of English which allows /ʌ/ to exist unstressed.
However, Martin is a German and will more naturally say Scala without a schwa, so the ruling on /ˈskɑːlɑː/ is fine by me, but most English speaking programmers will prefer /ˈskɑːlə/, so I’d appreciate both being listed as valid. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:R.I.McGhee|R.I.McGhee]] ([[User talk:R.I.McGhee#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/R.I.McGhee|contribs]]) 03:07, 7 November 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
