Excerpt from Malay-English Vocabulary: Containing Over 7000 Malay Words or Phrases With Their English Equivalents, Together With an Appendix of Household, Nautical and Medical Terms Etc In open syllables these vowel sounds have always a greater degree of intensity than in closed syllables. In addition to the above there is in Malay, as in nearly all Orien tal languages, another simple vowel sound which is often called the short vowel sound. In the different systems of romanizing, this short vowel sound has been variously represented by a, (7, e, (z, i, i, u. 12; but all these different methods of representing this vowel sound are open to the great objection that they mislead Europeans and. Even natives into giving it an incorrect pronunciation, and in a dictionary they have the additional disadvantage of giving rise to so much divers ity and uncertainty in the spelling of words containing the short vowel that prolonged search is, often necessary before it can be dis covered which of these vowels has been used by the lexicographer to represent the short vowel in the particular word which is being sought for. Experience has shown that the best way to spell words contain ing the short vowel with a view to helping the student to a correct pronunciation, is to omit the vowel altogether, and it is believed that the omission of the vowel Will obviate the difficulty of finding such words in the vocabulary. The exact sound of the short vowel should be learnt if possible from a Malay; it is almost identical with the half-vowel sound in the first syllable of such words as machine and balloon.
