<p style="border-bottom-width:0px;border-left-width:0px;font-style:inherit;font-weight:inherit;margin-top:1em;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:1em;margin-left:0px;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;vertical-align:baseline;">

Even the "ye" and "yo" vowels. Y cannot stand by itself in a sentence, it must be followed by e or o.

To add stress to a vowel, add a (˘) above the vowel. The long vowels are ă ĕ ĭ ŏ ŭ yĕ and yŏ. If a dipthong is stressed, put a ˘ over the first letter and it will account for the second one. Without stress indicators you should say the letters in a flat tone.
