Czecklish has a very large number of diphthongs - 28 in fact! Vowels can form diphthongs with both close and open-mid vowels, as well as /ɑ/. The central vowel /ɨ/ cannot be a second element in diphthongs, as it can never be non-syllabic. Nasal vowels can also form diphthongs, but they are not as common, and do not appear before nasal consonants.<br /> | Czecklish has a very large number of diphthongs - 28 in fact!
