Vowels
Diachronically, Persian possessed a distinction of length in its underlying vowel inventory, contrasting the long vowels /i:/, /u:/, /ɑ:/ with the short vowels /e/, /o/, /æ/. In Modern Persian, this distinction of quantity is neutralized in most environments; short vowels lengthen in closed syllables. Because the neutralization is not complete and other processes, including a number of vowel quality alternations, depend on this distinction of length, it is not possible to analyze the underlying vowel inventory of Modern Persian without length. On the other hand, for reasons of concreteness, it is not desirable to analyze the short and long vowels as identical in quality (with their respective differences being derived by rule.) Thus, the most concrete and adequate representation of the vowel inventory is that given below. Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name. ...
