======Vowel cleft lipness====== There are cleft lip, and non-cleft lip vowel pairs. Cleft lip vowels approach [{{ipa|ɛ}}] sound when pronounced compared to its non-cleft lip vowel pairs. All these letters (or sounds if you will) other than {{lang|hu|e}} [{{ipa|ɛ}}], and {{lang|hu|é}} [{{ipa|e:}}] are marked with double accents ('''both''' double dot, and double sticks) * For example {{lang|hu|'''ö'''}} [{{ipa|ø}}] is the short cleft lip version, while {{lang|hu|'''ő'''}} [{{ipa|ø:}}] is the long cleft lip version of {{lang|hu|'''o'''}} [{{ipa|o}}] Words with such sounds are [[Vowel harmony#Agglutination vowel constraints|often]] agglutinated using cleft lip vowels also # {{lang|hu|okos}} + '''kd''' = {{lang|hu|ok<u>o</u>sk<u>o</u>d<u>ó</u>}} (he or she is playing smart) #* '''Non-cleft lip''' vowel of root word to '''non-cleft lip''' vowel in agglutination # {{lang|hu|hős}} + '''kd''' = {{lang|hu|h<u>ő</u>sk<u>ö</u>d<u>ő</u>}} (he or she is playing hero) #* '''Cleft lip''' vowel of root word to '''cleft lip''' vowel in agglutination # {{lang|hu|daru}} + '''z''' = {{lang|hu|dar<u>u</u>z<u>ó</u>}} (he or she is operating a crane often) #* '''Non-cleft lip''' vowel of root word to '''non-cleft lip''' vowel in agglutination # {{lang|hu|hegedű}} + '''z''' = {{lang|hu|heged<u>ű</u>z<u>ő</u>}} (he or she is playing on a violin often) #* '''Cleft lip''' vowel of root word to '''cleft lip''' vowel in agglutination Naturally since {{lang|hu|e}} [{{ipa|ɛ}}], and {{lang|hu|é}} [{{ipa|e:}}] are also cleft lip (by definition, not by accent on letter) with these as the last vowel of a word the following examples are also valid # {{lang|hu|foc<u>i</u>}} + '''z''' = {{lang|hu|foc<u>i</u>z<u>ó</u>}} (he or she playing football often) #* '''Non-cleft lip''' vowel of root word to '''non-cleft lip''' vowel in agglutination # {{lang|hu|tév<u>é</u>}} + '''z''' = {{lang|hu|tév<u>é</u>z<u>ő</u>}} (he or she is watching tv often) #* '''Cleft lip''' vowel of root word to '''cleft lip''' vowel in agglutination # {{lang|hu|l<u>ó</u>}} + '''vgl''' = {{lang|hu|lov<u>a</u>gl<u>ó</u>}} (he or she is riding a horse) #* '''Non-cleft lip''' vowel of root word to '''non-cleft lip''' vowel in agglutination # {{lang|hu|tev<u>e</u>}} + '''vgl''' = {{lang|hu|tev<u>e</u>g<u>e</u>l<u>ő</u>}} (he or she is riding a camel) #* '''Cleft lip''' vowel of root word to '''cleft lip''' vowel in agglutination * ''Note that "vgl" is '''not''' considered an agglutination, but in the camel's case it is used as one. "To ride" means {{lang|hu|lovagol}}, in which "o", and "l" are supposed to switch places. {{lang|hu|Lovag}} means knight, and "to ride a horse" is "to pretend to be a knight" rather in Hungarian language, but in the word for camel there is a "v", and it is very in a convenient place there. The word for knight is maybe related to the word for horse in Hungarian language'' * ''Note that all these examples here are adjectives, and not very translatable''
