Does the word preview contain schwa sound?

No, the word "preview" does not contain the schwa sound.

Here's why:

* Schwa is a vowel sound that is very short and unstressed. It is often represented by the symbol ə.

* In "preview," the vowel sounds are:

* e in "pre" is pronounced as a short e sound (like in "bed").

* i in "view" is pronounced as a long i sound (like in "see").

Neither of these vowel sounds is the schwa sound.
