Pronunciation edit

@Amndrkwe: Where does the IPA-based transcription come from? Why are the final vowels missing, and where does the schwa come from, oh, and the [w]? Lingala says nothing about such a phenomenon (vowel reduction or apocope not reflected in the orthography). Its orthography seems to be shallow, i. e., pretty straightforwardly related to the pronunciation. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 22:25, 31 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

This IPA pronunciation came from an earlier revision of the article, I rolled back the change because the pronunciation seemed close enough and I thought it was important to the article, I will however admit that the IPA isn't my specialty, I would really like to find a better source on it.
