		close_back_unrounded_vowel } Note that although [a] is listed as a front vowel, it is considered as a central vowel by many.
		Cardinal vowels are obtained by dividing the "operture space" between the closest vowels [i] and [u] and the most open vowel [a] in four equal "degrees" of operture: close (high tongue position), close-mid, open-mid, and open (low tongue position).

		The buffer vowel should be as laxly pronounced as possible, as central as possible, and as short as possible.
		A diphthong is a vowel sound that consists of two elements, a short vowel sound and a glide, either a labial (IPA [w]) or palatal (IPA [j]) glide, that either precedes (an on-glide) or follows (an off-glide) the main vowel.
		Since every syllable has a vowel sound (or diphthong or syllabic consonant) as its nucleus, and the stress is on the vowel sound itself, the terms ``stressed syllable'' and ``stressed vowel'' are largely interchangeable concepts.
