I learned from a pronunciation website that ə and ʌ are like twins - one for unstressed sound, the other for stressed sound. I think I have heard both sounds of a noun like the following, and when you make the stressed sound ʌ , is it because you want to emphsize it or you are kind of emotionally upset or agitated or do you just do it randomly?
ə(unstressed) ʌ(stressed)
one one
but but
young young
love love
hug hug
cut cut
fun fun
Monday Monday
