Kanaliteülest

Kanaliteülest is an Estonian uninduced coarticulation between two vowels in different syllables within the same word. It is pronounced as a gliding or diphthong movement between two vowel sounds, [ɑ̂] and [ʏ], typically in a sequence such as 'üö', where the 'ö' represents a sound between the close front unrounded vowel and the near-open central vowel.

This feature of the Estonian language is notable for several reasons. Firstly, the coarticulation involved is substantial, encompassing a broad range, from the [ɑ̂] sound close to the front to the more central [ʏ] sound. Secondly, the context where this coarticulation occurs, typically in sequences like 'üö' mentioned above, within words ending in 'ü' with other consonants after.

It is critical to note that the same combination centered around sound 'ü' can differ from speaker to speaker as vowel coarticulation may depend on the speaker's choice and natural way of speaking.

Notably, the brief treatment provided in relevant linguistic studies may-in some cases- indicate quite a substantial spread among occurrences of kanaliteülest, indicating some degree of speaker-to-speaker variance as well. Given the polyphonic assessments that have been used in studying this sound feature and considering regional differences that may be more substantial in that particular language, broad consensus will still remain paramount. Further investigations may reveal areas which have the most extending areas contributing to kanaliteülest.
