Cvetka's Slovenian Theory Thread

[Battler]

In other words, where PO represent intitial two letters, like POT (path, road) and POT (sweat, perspiration) the vowel O is long, but slightly differently pronounced.

Again, only in in some dialects, such as Ljubljana and Gorenjska. Over here, both are quite assuredly /pɔt/, and the same goes for Styria / Štajerska, and in the Gorica dialect, both are /puat/ or /puǝt/. In the Carinthia / Koroška dialect, they are distinct, but it retains the nasal vowels, so there, it's /pǫt/ and /poːːːːːːː:t/.
