How to pronounce the unstressed е in прише́дшие?
Wikipedia says:
- ...
- /e/ has merged with /i/ (or /i/ and /ɨ/ if /ɨ/ is considered a phoneme): for instance, лиса́ (lisá) 'fox' and леса́ 'forests' are both pronounced /lʲiˈsa/, phonetically About this sound[lʲɪˈsa].
- ...
So I expected прише́дшие to sound like [priʃjedʃii], not [priʃjedʃije]. In other words, the sound of the unstressed e here should boil from [je] to [i] as per the rule above. Yet, many singers (in fact, this is from the song called Журавли) actually don't pronounce that way; I hear [e] at the end of the word. Can you explain why?

With the last syllable being stressed it looks like 1) a noun 2) borrowed from a foreign language, probably French.

teasing out pronunciation from songs is not the most reliable method, because singers tend to enunciate phonemes more clearly which defaults to the way they are written, especially singers from the Soviet era who generally had formal education as vocalists

Your expectation is justified, in speech прише́дшие is indeed pronounced like [priʃjedʃii], the final [е] gets reduced, пришеччыи
The transcription [priʃjedʃije] is also wrong about pronunсiation of [д] which here merges with [ш] to form geminated [чч] and thus is essentially not pronounced.
Thanks for the clarification! Also, that germination rule is interesting. =) I should dig it further.

I think it depends on the speaker's region of origin. [пришеччыи] sounds very unusual to me. My own pronunciation is similar to [пришэтшиэ].

true, since [e] is reduced into something amorphous i guess it's difficult to pinpoint how the resulting vowel exactly sounds, it could once sound closer to [ы] and then more like [э] the next time around with the same person

I assume the latter part(=germination) is Russian-specific, but I see none in Wikipedia's Russian Phonology page. Is there any link that you can cite or quote about that topic?
