==== Diphthongs ==== | |||
In Caseyan, there are multiple diphthongs involving <и> and a following "second" vowel. In these diphthongs the /i/ from <и> becomes a /j/; this can be done with any vowel except /ɨ/. Some other diphthongs can include <а> or <ă> and <э> (schwa), in which case the first vowel gets shortened (e.g. ''аэ'': [aə] → [a̯ə]). This is not allowed transsyllabically, should this encounter happen between two syllables, a glottal stop [ʔ] is inserted, c.f. нароç<u>ăэ</u>нзy [na.ˈrɔː.ˌθ<u>ɐ.ʔə</u>n.zu] (''the people''). If /ɐ/ and /ə/ are next to each other, the sound gets reduced to /ə/. | |||
