A vowel's quality is subject to change depending on its relative position to the main stressed vowel. For example, /e/ becomes /ɨ/ when immediately before or after a stressed vowel, as does /a/ when it becomes /ɐ/. The chart below shows each written vowel's quality with its relative position, the positions being initially stressed, preceding a stressed vowel, stressed within the word (stressed but not initial nor final), after a stressed vowel, and being stressed finally.
