Etymology

Proposed in 1908 as part of the new Latvian spelling by the scientific commission headed by K. Mīlenbahs, which was accepted and began to be taught in schools in 1909. Prior to that, Latvian had been written in German Fraktur, and sporadically in Cyrillic.

E

1. Template:Latn-def

Usage notes

The letter E/e (like its long counterpart Ē/ē) represent two sounds, Template:IPAchar — Template:M — and Template:IPAchar — Template:M. In principle, Template:IPAchar is used when there is a palatal element (the vowels i, ī, e, ē, the diphthongs ie, ei, and the palatal consonants j, ķ, ģ, ļ, ņ, š, ž, č, dž, and, in the old spelling, ŗ) either in the same or in the following syllable; otherwise, Template:IPAchar is used. Unfortunately, some historical changes have obscured this pattern by removing some previously existing palatal elements; as a result of that, for a number of words the actual pronunciation of the letter e — Template:IPAchar or Template:IPAchar — must be memorized.

• In monosyllables, final ⟨Template:L⟩ is pronounced Template:IPAchar, except on Sylt, where it is Template:IPAchar.
• The reduced vowel is lowered to Template:IPAchar when followed by coda ⟨Template:L⟩. In the insular dialects, the same usually happens also before any other coda consonant (except ⟨Template:L⟩, which become syllabic instead).
• Mooring Frisian represents Template:IPAchar exclusively by ⟨Template:L⟩, whereas the insular dialects represent Template:IPAchar by ⟨Template:L⟩ in certain positions (see there).
• Föhr-Amrum Frisian uses ⟨Template:L⟩ for the diphthongs Template:IPAchar, Template:IPAchar as in German. The other dialects spell phonetically ⟨Template:L⟩.

Usage notes

This particle accompanies several tonal changes, as well as a simplification or elision of the coda of the possessed noun in some cases. Many nouns can be linked directly in possessive constructions without using this particle, chiefly those that denotes humans or animals when used in the singular, although it is impossible to predict exactly which nouns will follow which pattern based on semantics, ancestral noun class, or morphology.
