I was looking for improvements on my vocabulary and then I saw the word
`telephone` which accordinly to Genki series is でんわ, but let's suppose that I
want to say `This telephone is white`, is gramatically correct to say この
**でんわ** はしろです.

Can I say both は and わ? Sounding something like `kono denwa wa shiro desu`? Or
should I choose another word (if there is one) to replace でんわ to not mess up
the noun with the particle?

question
particle-は
The は particle following a noun's わ?
You would still pronounce it `wa.` You will not have to change the reading of
the は particle just because a noun ends in わ. Here's another example:

> Excuse me, but this conversation is boring.
>
> すみません、この会話｛かいわ｝はつまらないです。

In Japanese, repeated sounds like this are not uncommon, and should not be a
reason for concern.
