Phonological Segmentation: Treat multiple vowels as diphtongs or separate them? #1

Closed LinguList closed 9 years ago

LinguList commented 9 years ago

How should I treat mult-vowel subsequences, like, e.g., "mao": as three segments, with vowels segmentized into distinct units, or as two segments, with vowels merged into diphtongs?

m a o
m ao

as distinct units, all of them m a o

allright, I modified the data and therefore close this issue
