Characteristic of Neo-Haeac pronunciation is the confusion between the historic monophthongs and diphthongs, and an uncertain placement of historic long, but generally POA-shifted vowels such as ē and ō. | |||

<nowiki>*</nowiki>Often the latter pronunciations are used in 'stressed', emphatic, or simply stylish pronunciations, but it is important to note that 'stress' here does not refer to normal stressed syllables. | |||
<br />^These vowels in this situation may be pronounced like /e/, but not /a/. | |||

====Stress==== | ====Stress==== | ||
In 1st and 2nd Koine Haeac the stress is marked in the orthography and is generally free. More in depth analyses however place stress on the nucleus of the nucleus of the most stressed morpheme of the word, and present a hierarchy of stress for morphemes. For example, -ós, -ón and -´ē often pull the stress away from the main root. Because these morphemes carry certain meanings, and have their influence on semantics is bound to their influence on a word's stress patterns, some Haeac linguists feel that the underlying default placement for stress is in fact the first syllable. | |||
