interestinnnngggggg. so the final verdict is that Western has correct spelling and Eastern has correct pronunciation? If so (and regardless) I'm really interesting in learning what the correct pronunciations are of the letters. Grabar, although very different, has both the correct spelling and pronunciation I assume? I ask this because I'm in the process of looking for a place to study abroad next fall and stumbled upon an Armenian Studies program in Jerusalem that offers courses such as grabar, ancient and medieval Armenian architechture, modern literature, and so on...

ok. i understand all that. but regardless, would anyone happen to know the grammatical rules for western armenian (mainly those pertaining to which letter to use in which instance) ex. p sounds, r sounds, o sounds...

Yes, I can see the letters in Armenian. So are you saying that the Western armenian pronunciaiton is incorrect? Or that our spelling is reversed?
