“…The Gaahmg system resembles Moro, except that the raised [ɜ] is consistently mid in Moro, and the Moro mid vowels are mid-close [e] and [o]. Kera also has six vowels, /i ɨ u ε a ɔ/, a similar system to Gaahmg, but Pearce (2003) characterises its raising pattern as height harmony rather than ATR. An acoustic analysis, however, shows that the F1 of [ɨ] is similar to the mid vowels [e] and [o], whereas [ə], which is the result of raising /a/, has a lower F1, approaching that of [i] and [u].…”
