使用する際の注意点

• Added to word stems ending in ⟨i⟩ or ⟨y⟩ to avoid a double -ii-, such as contrariety instead of *contrariïty. The effect on pronunciation is (or was originally) dissimilatory, lowering the vowel from /ɪ/ to /ɛ/ following a similarly palatal vowel or semivowel, though for many speakers the vowel of -ety is pronounced closer to [ɪ] and indistinguishable from -ity.
