հ · h
յ · y · The consonant y of yes, not the vowel in my.
վ · v
Do not borrow the sound of a lookalike Latin letter: Armenian հ is h, not a Latin h-shaped spelling shortcut.
The letter յ is a consonant. In սայլ, join s + a + y + l: sayl.

goodUse a Armenian keyboard
On your phone, add Armenian in Settings → Languages or Keyboards. On a computer, add an Armenian input language in the operating system settings.
Use the on-screen letters whenever you prefer. The ու key inserts its two written characters together; spaces and punctuation have their own keys.
