    It's not even an [e] sound but some kind of unstreesed schwa.

    Do you mean the Russian sound in "девушке"? Yes, I agree, it's a kind of schwa, not exactly, but yes...

    However, let's put it in a more generic way: what is we had a stressed vowel? Say, "сестре"?
    In my examples above all the е's are stressed.

    I'm curious what native English speakers think of that.
