by b (2)(a). Therefore, _creia_ would probably be a trisyllable. In
_cambiáos_ the i and á might form one syllable or two by b (2) (_d_),
and the á and o would probably be in separate syllables by b (1) (a).
Therefore, in _cambiáos_ the combination iáo might form a dissyllable
or a trisyllable.

In (iii) there will be a combination of two vowels before the accent,
and one of two vowels with the second accented. In _rehuí_, for
example, the e and u might be in the same syllable by a (1), or in
separate syllables by dieresis by a (1) (a), and the u and í might be
in separate syllables or not by b (3) (b). Therefore, _rehuí_ might be
a monosyllable, a dissyllable, or a trisyllable.

Other combinations of three vowels may be analyzed in a similar way,
as may also combinations of more than three vowels, e.g. _creíais_,
etc.


B. SYNALEPHA

Between the contiguous vowels of separate words there may occur
synalepha (which corresponds to diphthongization within a word), or
hiatus (which is similar to diaeresis within a word).

Ex. _Abre^una^eternidad_, p. 178, XXXVI I, l. 22. _¿Á qué me lo
decís? lo sé^:^es mudable_, p. 179, XXXIX, l. 1. [Synalepha.]

Ex. _Como la onda^azul, en cuya cresta_, p. 173, XXVII, l. 16.
[Hiatus.]
