Difference from Standard

It’s unclear to me how this dialect is systematically different from standard eastern. The set of described features seem limited to some functional words. Are there any sounds that are absent in standard but present in Yerevan, and vice versa. And are there systematic differences in verbal conjugation? The hy version of this Wikipedia page reports conjugations like գըրըմ ի, but are such forms still used by the average Yerevan speaker or are they more archaic forms? 136.25.158.40 (talk) 09:15, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
