Diphthongs and ι-subscripts
: '''**''' 'αυ' and 'ευ' are controversial. There is some evidence to suggest that is was pronounced 'ew' (as in "Ew, that's gross!") It was probably like α or ε + Spanish 'vh.
There are also version of several vowels with a small iota underneath (or beside in the case of capitols): ᾼ ᾳ, ῌ ῃ, ῼ ῳ. It is believed that these represent ancient diphthongs, but the pronunciation is not altered in the time of any Greek writing writings after the 4th century BCE.
: ''We have chosen not to include ι-subscripts on '''WikiChristian''', partly because most browsers display them incorrectly.''
