Open front rounded vowel
Template:Short description Template:Hatnote group Template:Infobox IPA/core1Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". Template:IPA vowels
The (near-)open front rounded vowel, or (near-)low front rounded vowel,[1] is a type of vowel sound that has not been confirmed to be phonemic in any spoken language.Template:Sfnp[2] The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is Template:Angbr IPA, a small capital Template:Angbr. Template:Angbr IPA, the lowercase of the ligature, is used for the open-mid front rounded vowel.
While the IPA chart lists it as a fully open vowel, the rounded equivalent of Script error: No such module "IPA".,Template:Sfnp characterizes it as near-open, the rounded equivalent of Script error: No such module "IPA"..
A phoneme generally transcribed by this symbol is reported from the Bavarian dialect of Amstetten. However, it is phonetically open-mid, Template:IPAblink.[3]
It occurs allophonically in Weert Limburgish[4] as well as in some speakers of Danish[5] and Swedish.[6] Certain transcriptions of Danish use Template:Angbr IPA to denote an open-mid front rounded vowel Template:IPAblink.[5]
In Maastrichtian Limburgish, the vowel transcribed with Template:Angbr IPA in the Mestreechter Taol dictionary is phonetically near-open central Template:IPAblink. It is a phonological open-mid front rounded vowel, the long counterpart of Script error: No such module "IPA"..[7]
Template:Harvp reports that Script error: No such module "IPA". in Stockholm Swedish is sometimes difficult to distinguish from Template:IPAblink, which is the main realization of the Script error: No such module "IPA". phoneme, a sign that both vowels are phonetically very close.[6]
