When it comes to adding the definite suffix -e, -i or -a, some words ending in vowel have two possible pronunciations. The word ''inere'' (girl), if attached the suffix (inere'''-i''') can be pronounced either /ɪˈne.ɾeɪ/ or /ɪˈne.ɾeˌi/. The same thing happens with masculine words ending in -u (maiddu / maiddu'''-e''': /ˈmaiʔ.ɟwe/ or /ˈmaiʔ.ɟuˌe/ 'beaver') or in -i (koddi / koddi'''-e''': /ˈkɔʔ.ɟje/ or /ˈkɔʔ.ɟiˌe/ 'dog'). | When it comes to adding the definite suffix -e, -i or -a, some words ending in vowel have two possible pronunciations.
