Editing Close-mid front rounded vowel (section)

==Close-mid front compressed vowel==
The '''close-mid front compressed vowel''' is typically transcribed in IPA simply as {{angbr IPA|ø}}, which is the convention used in this article. There is no dedicated [[IPA diacritic|diacritic]] for compression in the IPA. However, the compression of the lips can be shown with the letter {{IPAalink|β̞}} as {{angbr IPA|e͡β̞}} (simultaneous {{IPA|[e]}} and labial compression) or {{angbr IPA|eᵝ}} ({{IPA|[e]}} modified with labial compression). The spread-lip diacritic {{angbr IPA|&nbsp;&nbsp;͍ }} may also be used with a rounded vowel letter {{angbr IPA|ø͍}} as an ''ad hoc'' symbol, but 'spread' technically means unrounded.

For the '''close-mid front compressed vowel''' that is usually transcribed with the symbol {{angbr IPA|ʏ}}, see [[near-close front compressed vowel]]. If the usual symbol is {{angbr IPA|ø}}, the vowel is listed here.

=== Features ===
{{close-mid vowel}}
{{front vowel}}
{{compressed vowel}}

=== Occurrence ===
Because front rounded vowels are assumed to have compression, and few descriptions cover the distinction, some of the following may actually have protrusion.
