Latin edit

Pronunciation edit

  • (Classical) IPA(key): /anˈtiː.re/, [än̪ˈt̪iːrɛ]
  • Note: the -e- in this word is not pronounced but is purely orthographic, in line with the "full" spelling of prepositional/prefixal elements. Not only do Latin short vowels followed by other vowels regularly elide on the phonetic level, but stem-final short vowels are already regularly elided on the morphophonological level, i.e. during word derivation. In addition, in Republican spelling, ei spelt the long vowel /iː/.
