Talk:Synaeresis

[Untitled]
what about syneresis, as in physiology, its a clot retraction.........who erased it????

Dubious English example
The section on English says, in its entirety,
 * Synaeresis often occurs with English reduced vowels, as in Asia (/ˈeɪzi.ə/ → /ˈeɪʒə/).

But the first, three-syllable pronunciation with a /z/ sound, is one I've never heard and one that does not appear either in Wikipedia's article Asia or in Wiktionary. I'll remove this example unless someone can give a good argument for keeping it. Loraof (talk) 01:24, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
 * That example is actually a case of synaeresis and palatalization: . I think the three-syllable pronunciation is a few centuries old, so that would be why you (and I) haven't heard it. You'd be justified removing it, because it needs more explanation, but there's no source to get more information from. — Eru·tuon 06:43, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
 * It would be nice to replace it with another English example, rather than deleting the brief English section. Any suggestions? Loraof (talk) 14:43, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
