   Greek exhibits a remarkable (and unappreciated) symmetry andcompleteness in its phonology, both in consonants and vowels. Here,"completeness" should not be construed as implying that Greek comprisesall possible sounds (that is a task that even the humongous IPA isstruggling with), but rather that it does not have any gaps in itsphonology.

   Symmetry and Completeness

   Now that all Greek phonemes have been introduced, it must be clear why Greek is phonologically symmetric and complete.Theoretically speaking, if each phoneme is considered as a combination of discrete values ofa number of properties, say values A1, A2, A3for property A and values B1, B2 for property B,then a phonologically complete language would comprise all possiblecombinations of the values of these properties, A1B1,A1B2, A2B1, A2B2,A3B1, A3B2; if one pair,say A3B2, is missing, then one of...

   Semivowels

   In a couple of words, mainstream Greek knows nothing of semivowelsor approximants. This general aphorism needs clarification, inparticular to define what is a "semi-vowel". It appears that everyoneunderstands this term differently and providing a precise definition isnot an easy task; so let me draw you a picture. :-) The voiced velars (*g* and *γ*) and palatals (*g* and *γ*)can be considered as the "projections" of the back and front vowel axisrespectively. In particular, the place of articu...

   Diphthongs

   Excluding cases of "synizesis"in poetry, diphthongal pronunciation is reserved forthree vowel combinations, *ai*, *oi*, *ei*, with *i* following anothervowel>>X. When *i* precedes another vowel>>X, instead of diphthongisationGreek prefers consonantisation. Greek *u* never forms diphthongs(possibly due to the orthography as a digraph"ου").

   The IPA primarily uses Roman characters. Other letters are borrowed from different scripts (e.g., Greek) and are modified to conform to Roman style. Diacritics are used for fine distinctions in sounds and to show nasalization of vowels, length, stress, and tones. The IPA can be used for broad and narrow transcription.

   What are IPA symbols based on?

   • The IPA characters are based on Latin script, but there are not enough to cover every sound. More symbols can be created by adding cursive forms, diacritics, small capitals, and rotation. Stress and intonation are conveyed through special symbols, and tone symbols are derived from a musical scale.
