The sound is wrong. I am Persian native speaker and we have in our language also the gain sound, but it is not like on this record. --87.78.196.93 (talk) 10:41, 22 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This sound is not used in Persian. Maybe you're looking for glottal stop ?--90.179.235.249 (talk) 01:41, 2 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The latest version is noticeably wrong[edit]

The consonant in this sound file is Voiced velar fricative [ɣ], but it's supposed to be Voiced pharyngeal fricative [ʕ]. Most of the previous versions of the file contain the right sound (like this one). Arabic uses both of these sounds heavily (I'm a native speaker) and they're very distinguishable to Arabic speakers. in the Semitic abjads [ɣ] corresponds to Ghayn and [ʕ] corresponds to Ayin.
