Phonetic Transcription: ˈt̪ʰɑːvərɪʃtʲ
Explanation:
* t̪ʰ: This is a voiceless aspirated dental stop. Think of it like a "th" sound with a slight "h" puff of air, similar to the "th" in "thin" but with the tongue placed against the back of your front teeth.
* ɑː: This is a long "a" sound, similar to the "a" in "father".
* vər: This is a "v" sound followed by a "r" sound, similar to the "v" in "very".
* ɪʃtʲ: This is a "sh" sound followed by a "t" sound, but the "t" is palatalized, meaning your tongue is raised towards the roof of your mouth. It's a bit of a "ch" sound, similar to the "ch" in "cheese".
Putting it together, the pronunciation is something like: "thah-vuh-risht"
Note:
* The "t" sound at the beginning is aspirated, meaning there's a puff of air after the sound.
* The "sh" sound at the end is followed by a palatalized "t," which can be tricky for English speakers.
It's best to listen to a native Irish speaker pronounce the word to get the correct pronunciation. You can find resources like audio dictionaries or online pronunciation guides for this purpose.
