O and f: two later additions

Meet o, fe and practise telling them apart.

One letter, two cases

These lessons use Eastern Armenian pronunciation and modern reformed spelling. Capitals start sentences and names; most running text is lowercase. The capital and lowercase are the same letter and sound. There are no Arabic-style positional forms.

o

Օ օ makes o without an initial v. Compare the closed loop օ with open ո.

fe

Ֆ ֆ makes f, with the upper teeth at the lower lip. Do not confuse it with Փ փ, aspirated p.
