деятельность

What is the correct pronounciation:
diyatel'nost'
ili
dietel'nost'

Is there any rule?

If I were to say:

дейтильнасть is how it's pronounced

Any rule? Or is just this word?

деитильнасть.

The first "e" is stressed. Unstressd "я" and "е" are pronounced like "и". Unstressed "о" is pronounced like schwa.

The actual prononciation can vary. It can be "деэтильнасть" or similar.

I would say деятильнасть, if I had not to hurry, meaning я could sound alike и, but it is not very clear и.


One guy already said it:

I noticed, that in other languages vowels are often "undistinguished".
