Among diacritics is a breve-like that, over vowels, indicate that they must be stressed. It is rarely used, only on some words that differ by this stressing. But the spelling « ĭĩ », a stressed « i » followed by a lengthened « i », represents the sequence of phonemes /ij/. Likewise, « w̆w̃» and « ŭũ », less common, are /uw/ and /yɥ/, respectively. | Among diacritics is a breve-like that, over vowels, indicate that they must be stressed.
