This is the /ə/ sound. It is a Vowel sound and it’s technical name is the ‘Mid-Central Vowel’. It is often called the schwa sound but that refers to the symbol that is used it is nothing to do with the phonetics of the sound.
Remember that the key to pronunciation is physical and the name tells us about how the sound is made physically. In this case your tongue is in the middle and the center of your mouth.
All vowels are made through the mouth and are voiced so you vibrate your vocal chords to make the sound.
It is similar to the /i:/ sound, but it is shorter.
/ə/ not /ɜ:/
To produce the sound put your tongue in the middle and in the center of your mouth and make a short voiced sound.

This video is part of our series on phonetics and pronunciation for learners of English as a foreign language.
Phonetics is the science of pronunciation. It can be helpful for people learning English because one of the most difficult things about the language is the spelling and pronunciation. English is not very phonetic and as a result the same letters are often pronounced in many different ways in different words.
The IPA helps by providing a way to write words as they are pronounced. The normal alphabet only has 26 characters but there are 44 different sounds that are used to pronounce words. As well as that, most word in English originate from other languages like Greek, Latin and French to name just a few and in many cases the the language of origin influences how the word is pronounced.
The IPA provides a symbol (phoneme) for each sound so the correct pronunciation can be written or printed in dictionaries.
This video along with the others in our pronunciation series helps language learners to hear the correct pronunciation and also to know how to produce the sound of each phoneme.

In this lesson, we are going to look at the vowel sound that we find in the word bird /ɜ:/. You can see that this vowel has two dots after it which indicates that it is a long vowel sound.
The /ɜ:/ sound is a central accented vowel sound with no lip rounding. Technically, this vowel sound is the open-mid central unrounded vowel. It is a sound that does not normally occur in other languages besides English.
Notice that on the chart, the /ɜ:/ sits next to the /ɜ:/vowel sound /ɜ:/. The two sounds are distinguished only by length, the schwa being short and the /ɜ:/ being longer. As with all long vowel sounds, the /ɜ:/ also has a reduced form, which is similar to the schwa sound. If you are serious about improving your English, then perfecting your accent should be an important part of the process.

In linguistics, specifically phonetics and phonology, schwa (sometimes spelled shwa) refers to the mid-central vowel sound (rounded or unrounded) in the middle of the vowel chart, denoted by the IPA symbol ə, or another vowel sound close to that position. An example in English is the vowel sound in the 'a' of the word 'about'. Schwa in English is mainly found in unstressed positions, but in some other languages it occurs more frequently as a stressed vowel.
In relation to certain languages, the name "schwa" and the symbol ə may be used for some other unstressed and toneless neutral vowel, not necessarily mid-central.

1. If there is no constriction to airflow passing through the oral cavity, the sound is a vowel.
2. If the articulation of the vowel sound does not change, the vowel is a monophthong. If it changes, it is a diphthong.
3. Low / mid / high vowels
4. Front / central / back vowels
5. Long / short vowels
6. Rounded vowels

The mid-central vowel (also known as schwa) is a type of vowel sound, used in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is ⟨ə⟩, a rotated lowercase letter e. The same symbol may be used for the rounded and the unrounded mid-central vowel.
The mid-central unrounded vowel is frequently written with the symbol [ə]. However, this symbol does not specifically represent an unrounded vowel, and is frequently used for almost any unstressed obscure vowel. If precision is desired, the symbol for the close-mid central unrounded vowel may be used with a lowering diacritic, [ɘ̞].
Languages may have a mid-central rounded vowel (a rounded [ə]), distinct from both the close-mid and open-mid vowels. However, since no language is known to distinguish all three, there is no separate IPA symbol for the mid vowel, and the symbol [ɵ] for the close-mid central rounded vowel is generally used instead. If precision is desired, the lowering diacritic can be used: [ɵ̞].

A central vowel is a type of vowel sound used in some spoken languages. The defining characteristic of a central vowel is that the tongue is positioned halfway between a front vowel and a back vowel. The central vowels identified by the International Phonetic Alphabet are:
Occasionally, the ad hoc symbols ᵻ, ᵿ (ɪ, ʊ) for near-close central vowels will be seen.

Schwa
In linguistics, specifically phonetics and phonology, schwa (sometimes spelled shwa) refers to the mid-central vowel sound (rounded or unrounded) in the middle of the vowel chart, denoted by the IPA symbol ə, or another vowel sound close to that position. An example in English is the vowel sound in the 'a' of the word 'about'. Schwa in English is mainly found in unstressed positions, but in some other languages it occurs more frequently as a stressed vowel. In relation to certain languages, the name "schwa" and the symbol ə may be used for some other unstressed and toneless neutral vowel, not necessarily mid-central.

This is the /ə/ sound. It is a Vowel sound and it’s technical name is the ‘Mid-Central Vowel’. It is often called the schwa sound but that refers to the symbol that is used it is nothing to do with the phonetics of the sound.
Remember that the key to pronunciation is physical and the name tells us about how the sound is made physically. In this case your tongue is in the middle and the center of your mouth.
All vowels are made through the mouth and are voiced so you vibrate your vocal chords to make the sound.
It is similar to the /i:/ sound, but it is shorter.
/ə/ not /ɜ:/
To produce the sound put your tongue in the middle and in the center of your mouth and make a short voiced sound.

This video is part of our series on phonetics and pronunciation for learners of English as a foreign language.
Phonetics is the science of pronunciation. It can be helpful for people learning English because one of the most difficult things about the language is the spelling and pronunciation. English is not very phonetic and as a result the same letters are often pronounced in many different ways in different words.
The IPA helps by providing a way to write words as they are pronounced. The normal alphabet only has 26 characters but there are 44 different sounds that are used to pronounce words. As well as that, most word in English originate from other languages like Greek, Latin and French to name just a few and in many cases the the language of origin influences how the word is pronounced.
The IPA provides a symbol (phoneme) for each sound so the correct pronunciation can be written or printed in dictionaries.
This video along with the others in our pronunciation series helps language learners to hear the correct pronunciation and also to know how to produce the sound of each phoneme.

British English at http://Britlish.com
In this lesson, we are going to look at the vowel sound that we find in the word bird /ɜ:/. You can see that this vowel has two dots after it which indicates that it is a long vowel sound.
The /ɜ:/ sound is a central accented vowel sound with no lip rounding. Technically, this vowel sound is the open-mid central unrounded vowel. It is a sound that does not normally occur in other languages besides English.
Notice that on the chart, the /ɜ:/ sits next to the /ɜ:/vowel sound /ɜ:/. The two sounds are distinguished only by length, the schwa being short and the /ɜ:/ being longer. As with all long vowel sounds, the /ɜ:/ also has a reduced form, which is similar to the schwa sound. If you are serious about improving your English, then perfecting your accent should be an important part of the process.

An example in English is the vowel sound in the 'a' of the word 'about'. Schwa in English is mainly found in unstressed positions, but in some other languages it occurs more frequently as a stressed vowel.
In relation to certain languages, the name "schwa" and the symbol ə may be used for some other unstressed and toneless neutral vowel, not necessarily mid-central.
