ն

ն lowercase (uppercase Ն)

1. The 22nd letter of Armenian alphabet, called նու (nu). Represents alveolar nasal: [n]. Transliterated as n.

Usage notes

According to Jasmine Dum-Tragut, the alveodental nasal [n] is usually realised as [n], but has several allophonic variants in assimilation, a palatal nasal [ɲ] preceding postalveolar affricates, as in անջնջելի (anǰnǰeli) [ɑɲd͡ʒəɲd͡ʒɛˈli] and a velar nasal [ŋ] preceding velar plosives as in անկարելի (ankareli) [ɑŋkɑɾɛˈli].
