[wiki] Schwa is a short neutral vowel sound and, like all other vowels, its precise quality varies depending on the adjacent consonants.
The reduced vowel sound called schwa is the most common vowel sound in spoken English. Schwa is a quick, relaxed, neutral vowel pronunciation very close to a 'short u' /ʌ/.

2) as a reduced vowel sound in a function word
