frequent cases; as in passing from the begining to the end
of a regular diphthong, or from vowel to consonant or
consonant to vowel in a syllable, or from one component to
the other of a double or diphthongal consonant (see Guide
to Pronunciation, [sect][sect] 19, 161, 162). Also (by
Bell and others), the vanish (or brief final element) or

vowels, or the brief final or initial part of some

from it. Glides of the other sort are distinguished as
