Vowels.
The vowels are a, e, i, o, u.
1. A has the sound of a in father, except when followed by the simple consonant n, or by t final, when its sound is somewhat flattened, and becomes nearly the same as a in mat.
2. E=ey in they; or as a in mate.
3. I=i in machine. In mixed syllables it is sounded nearly as if written double (=ii), each having the same sound as (but only one-half the length of) the simple i.
4. O=o in go.
5. O͘=o in Lord, or a in all. In mixed syllables the dot may be omitted without danger of leading to error of pronunciation.
6. U as u in tune.
