Vowels
There are 9 vocalic phonemes, which display other forms of distinction:
3 vowels have a short form and a long form: [i] - [iː], [u] - [uː], and [œ] - [œː]. However, length is not deemed by the speakers as a distinctive feature of the same phoneme. These pairs are regarded as four fully independent phonemes, thus bringing the amount of distinguished vowels to 12.
