>its good you have a teacher and
she was an English teacher at one point, too. she's good at teachin' :)

>the rest of us lol
what're you, can I ask?

>is she native?
yes, we met in Armenia. she's into languages and her mom was an editor for a newspaper so she's got a better grasp on the language than most armenians - like avoiding common grammatical or pronunciation mistakes

>ive heard that aspiration and ejectiveness was supposed to vary, yhat if they had strong ejectives theyd have very weak aspiration and if strong aspiration theyd have weak ejectives
I couldn't tell you, unfortunately. I don't have the best ear for this kind of stuff. I just went and listened to examples of both (with the former specifically in armenian) and all I can tell you is that yeah, those sounds sound right, alright
