* A grave accent is put on any stressed vowel which is not in the last syllable, unless the word ends with a vowel or the plural marker '''-ot'''. The '''ìu''' and '''ùi''' diphthongs are stressed even in the last syllable (to prevent them being mistaken with /ju wi/ respectively), as is any other diphthong if preceded by /w/ or /j/, itself preceded by another consonant. Note that "diphthong" here is defined as a historic and a written diphthong, i.e. including those that resulted in Mauritanian palatalization.
