The short vowels /ɛ | The short vowels /ɑ ɛ i u/ are represented in writing as ⟨a e i u⟩ while the long vowels /ɑː ɛː iː uː/ are either represented with a macron ⟨ā, ē, ī, ū⟩ or a circumflex ⟨â, ê, î, û⟩. The usage of a circumflex in writing is to indicate vowel coalescence as a result of the contraction of the weak consonants /ʔ j w/. | ||
