  2. Checked and free vowels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checked_and_free_vowels

    The term checked vowel is also used to refer to a short vowel followed by a glottal stop in Mixe, which has a distinction between two kinds of glottalized syllable nuclei: checked ones, with the glottal stop after a short vowel, and nuclei with rearticulated vowels, a long vowel with a glottal stop in the middle.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syllable

    For example, Spanish casar ("to marry") is composed of an open syllable followed by a closed syllable (ca-sar), whereas cansar "to get tired" is composed of two closed syllables (can-sar). When a geminate (double) consonant occurs, the syllable boundary occurs in the middle, e.g. Italian panna "cream" ( pan-na ); cf. Italian pane "bread" ( pa-ne ).

  4. Phonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonics

    In the word button, both syllables are closed syllables (but. ton) because they contain single vowels followed by consonants. Therefore, the letter u represents the short sound / ʌ /. (The o in the second syllable makes the / ə / sound because it is an unstressed syllable.) Open syllables are syllables in which a vowel appears at the end of ...

  5. Consonant gradation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consonant_gradation

    This is a consequence of later changes in the structure of syllables, which made closed syllables open or vice versa, without adjusting the gradation. For example, in Northern Sami, the only difference between giella and giela ("language", nominative and genitive singular respectively) is the grade; the consonant that originally closed the ...

  6. Syllable weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syllable_weight

    A syllable with a branching rime is a closed syllable, that is, one with a coda (one or more consonants at the end of the syllable); this type of syllable is abbreviated CVC. In some languages, both CVV and CVC syllables are heavy, while a syllable with a short vowel as the nucleus and no coda (a CV syllable) is a light syllable. In other ...

  8. Semivowel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semivowel

    For example, the English word fly can be considered either as an open syllable ending in a diphthong [flaɪ̯] or as a closed syllable ending in a consonant [flaj]. [ 8 ] It is unusual for a language to contrast a semivowel and a diphthong containing an equivalent vowel, [ citation needed ] but Romanian contrasts the diphthong /e̯a/ with /ja ...

  9. Vowel length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vowel_length

    Stress is often reinforced by allophonic vowel length, especially when it is lexical. For example, French long vowels are always in stressed syllables. Finnish, a language with two phonemic lengths, indicates the stress by adding allophonic length, which gives four distinctive lengths and five physical lengths: short and long stressed vowels, short and long unstressed vowels, and a half-long ...
