No. Schwa is the short vowel sound usually heard in the unstressed syllable (or syllables) of words with two or more syllables. If written out phonetically, the sound is often rendered as "uh". The International Phonetic Association (IPA) uses an upside-down "e" (ə) to represent the schwa sound. The schwa sound is heard in the first syllable of the following words: a·part a·way a·cross sup·ply be·come Note that in each of these words, the second syllable receives much more stress than the first syllable. The schwa vowel sound occurs only in the unstressed syllables. When you say the word volcano (vol·ca·no), each syllable receives essentially the same amount of stress. Most of the time, you won't hear the schwa sound in words of two or more syllables if each of the syllables is voiced with equal stress. Consider the short sentence: "Volcanoes erupt." The word vol·ca·noes has three syllables, but each syllable is given the same amount of force. However, the first syllable of e·rupt receives much less stress than the second syllable. Sure enough, the vowel sound in the unstressed first syllable is the schwa.
