		In 2001 there were 139,050 people living in The Shwa and more than 10,000 of them were between the ages of 13 and 19.
		Right now a few time-tested haunts and fashion details that are inherently Shwa are giving this generation of teens at least one thing kids living in more cosmopolitan cities would be interested in: genuine street cred.
		Despite Trubela's eagerness to paint The Shwa with a bleak brush, it was his city's lack of specialty sports shops, combined with their thriving motocross culture, that made room for a business opportunity most entrepreneurs with his interests would be willing to sell a limb for.

		Shwa draws his influences from Maynard James Keenan, Les Claypool, Trent Reznor, Robert Plant, and many others.

	Balts and Carpathians - Mayer
		Where morphologically heavily marked these vowels regain their full, clear phonemic and phonetic expression as in buza 'the lip, the edge' for both languages where the final a there is viewed as the result of adding a suffix.
		In Slavic, having been heavily influenced by Baltic for centuries, though this drift toward shwa is found continuing as such in individual languages, it can be pointed out continuing in Common Slavic (in spite of opposing Baltic influence) only with considerable subtlety.
		Once such a substratum is involved (like an Illyrian one), then shwa tends to develop from an unmarked phoneme a as in Russian dobr9j9 (phonemically dobraja, morphophonemically either dobraja (fern.) or dobrojo (neut.) with similar tendencies in Slovene and Rhodopian Bulgarian, both with substrata having merged short o, a to short a phonemically.

		The chief reason for wanting to add the shwa grapheme is to simplify spelling.
		In the terminal position with syllabic r l m n, the shwa is not denoted.
		The basic difference is that shwa is not stressed.

	DCist: Three Stars: Shwa (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		In a town overwhelmed by art-rock groups trying hard to earn the respect of the Black Cat scenesters, and alt-rock groups jockeying for local radio airtime and record contracts, Shwa are banking more on honesty than image to stand out from the pack.
		There are actually two acts performing under the name Shwa -- the first is the solo Joshua Losben and his acoustic folk rock; the second is a full band lineup, playing the same songs with driving electric guitars backed by a solid rhythm section.
		Shwa’s ideas tend to be the most complete ones, but I might just have a riff or something.

		At any given Shwa performance you are likely to find at least one person in the crowd who drove hours just to see the show.
		The new album is a collection of quarter-life crisis anthems, backed with haunting melodies and hooks, leaving the average listener no choice but to hum their songs after listening to them.

		The "Mobile Shwa", which is a true vowel.
		The sound of the "mobile Shwa" sounds like the "e" in the words, "vowel" or "after".

		And /a/ is often classed as a back vowel, to parallel /ae/ and make front and back symmetric.
		English has this habit of reducing almost every unstressed vowel to somewhere in the shwa region.
		Sometimes this sounds a little like the vowel that's supposed to be there (most likely with /i/ and /u/), and sometimes -- especially when we're speaking rapidly, (i.e, naturally) -- it doesn't, as is almost always the case with /a/ and with the lax vowels, which mostly come out as normal shwa /@/.

		The busser for the tables was so efficient that she took our plates, glasses full of water, and cutlery before we were even done, and we had to wait another 15 minutes while our food chilled to get any utensils.
		En route to the buffet noticed a dude who had "mom" and "dad" respectively tattooed on the tricep of either arm (though no definition was visible to the naked eye) of each arm.

	DCist: Album Review: Shwa's Click Track
		Named after the metronome beat that allows musicians to record a track in time with the music, D.C.-based quartet Shwa’s EP Click Track is hardly as consistent as its namesake, but it shows a hint of promise.
		But Shwa sets its sights too high with the first track, “So Cry.” While it initially borders on sounding too much like a new Better Than Ezra single, the band brings so much energy to the song that you can’t not be impressed.
		It’s the type of song that would blow up on the radio if radio stations weren’t so busy asking record companies to pay to play.

	Question about a shwa sound \| Antimoon Forum
		Hi, all, is it true that the shwa sound in American English (as in "the" or "aabout") is the same as the uh-like sound as in hut or cut?
		I feel they are more or less the same.
		Only difference is that whether they get a stress on it or not?
