The term '''Third I''' (Drý-ins Í /dri ɪns i/ in Knašta)is used to describe the realization of the vowel ''í'' after ''ts'' and at the end of some words. It is called the Third I because the other two phonemes involving an "I-like" vowel (discounting dipthongs) are ''i'' /ɪ/ and ''í'' /i/.

== Location of Third I in Words ==

The Third I is '''always''' written as ''í'', and never as ''ý'', which normally represent the same phoneme (tsí is pronounced /t͡si₃/, while tsý is pronounced /t͡si/). Any ''í'' occurring after ''ts'' is automatically pronounced as the Third I. An ''í'' occurring at the end of the word is also typically pronounced as the Third I.

An ''í'' occurring at the end of the word (including the end of the word before affixes are applied) is also typically pronounced as the Third I.

== Realizations of the Third I ==

The ~~standard~~ pronunciation of the ~~Third~~ I is [e̞], ~~however~~, ~~it can also be~~ realized as [~~ɛi̯~~], [~~ei̯~~]~~, and at~~ the ~~end~~ of ~~words [aɪ̯]~~.

The pronunciation of the third I depends on its location within the word, and the preceding consonant or consonant cluster. It is often realized as [e] at the end of words when ''not'' preceded by ''ts''. Often, the third I is silent in words that end in ''tsí''. If ''tsí'' does not occur at the end of the word, the third I is often realized either [ɨ] or [ə] or the lengthening of the previous consonant (only with the plural suffix ''-sin''), with very few exceptions.

Vrémensk'''í''' /vremɛnske/ (real)

Vrémensk'''í'''-las /vremɛnskəlas/ (really)

Ts'''í'''ents'''í''' /t͡se.ɛnt͡s/ (science)
