| | :Probably by adding a <nowiki>===Pronunciation===</nowiki> section to both of them. According to [[WT:ELE]], one of the subsections is "Homophones", where the (near) homophony between [[avonduur]] and [[avontuur]] could be mentioned. (In my experience, the difference is that the [d] in [[avonduur]] doesn't syllabify the same way with the following vowel -- there's some slight difference in the transition there... also, the stress is a little different. Or am I wrong?) --[[User:Pereru|Pereru]] ([[User talk:Pereru|talk]]) 11:05, 26 June 2012 (UTC) | | :Probably by adding a <nowiki>===Pronunciation===</nowiki> section to both of them.

| | + | ::Thanks a lot for your help! That's correct, there are two differences. Avonduur syllabifies as [http://woordenlijst.org/zoek/?q=avonduur avond'''·'''uur] and avontuur as [http://woordenlijst.org/zoek/?q=avontuur&w=w avon'''·'''tuur]. Also, when pronouncing these words, you emphasize the "a" in "avonduur" and the "uur" in "avontuur". <tt>:)</tt> [[User:Mathonius|Mathonius]] ([[User talk:Mathonius|talk]]) 11:27, 26 June 2012 (UTC) |
