I think it's rather artificial to describe h as schwa in Khmer and Phnom (Penh). This is just an example of a wider phenomenon, nothing to do with h. A lot of English speakers, when they come across an unfamiliar consonant combination in a foreign word, insert an epenthetic vowel, e.g. Dvořák. Peter Jackson 09:34, 9 April 2011 (UTC)
