anteii

Latin

Pronunciation

• (Classical Latin) IPA^(key): /ˈan.ti.iː/, [ˈän̪t̪iː]
• Note: the -e- in this word is not pronounced but is purely orthographic, in line with the "full" spelling of prepositional/prefixal elements. Not only do Latin short vowels followed by other vowels regularly elide on the phonetic level, but stem-final short vowels are already regularly elided on the morphophonological level, i.e. during word derivation. In addition, in Republican spelling, ei spelt the long vowel /iː/.

• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): /an.teˈij/, [än̪t̪eˈij]
