		Front vowels are raised before velar nasal [Å], so that the near-open front unrounded vowel /Ã¦/ and the near-close near-front unrounded vowel /Éª/ are raised to a close-mid front unrounded vowel [e] and a close front unrounded vowel [i] before[Å].
		As with many vowel shifts, these significant changes occurring in the spoken language are rarely noticed by average speakers; imitation of peers and other sociolinguistic phenomena play a large part in determining the extent of the vowel shift in a particular speaker.
		As with other vowel shifts, several vowels may be seen moving in a chain shift around the mouth.

	Finnish phonology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Vowel harmony affects case suffixes and derivational suffixes, which often have two forms, one for use with front vowels, and the other with back vowels.
		The vowels i and e are considered neutral (they can appear anywhere), but the front vowels y, ö and ä never mix with the back vowels u, o, and a in a single word (except across compound limits).
		This means that speakers add weak frication consistent with the vowel: it is a weak pharyngeal next to /a/, a rounded bilabial next to /u/, and a palatal next to /i/.

		In most other languages that use the Latin alphabet, the letter a denotes either a open central unrounded vowel (IPA /a/), or an open back unrounded vowel (IPA /ɑ/.
		When the Ancient Greeks adopted the alphabet, they had no use for the glottal stop that the letter had denoted in Phoenician and other Semitic languages, so they used the sign for the vowel /a/, and changed its name to alpha.
