Crouch Memorial Language Institute: Latin vowels

Institute home | Index by language | Index by native name of language | Search by English word

"Latin vowels" is a convenient shorthand for the following vowel pronunciations:

a = English "ah"
e = English short e, like in bet
i = English "ee" minus the off-glide (the y-like sound at the end)
o = English "oh" minus the off-glide (the w-like sound at the end)
u = English "oo", but shorter.
