In some terran languages, English      puS tera' Holmey puj <<o>>'e' <<a>>
(US dialect only) and Russian          rur.  *English* Hol *US* HolHom'e'
included, an unstressed `o' is         *Russian* Hol'e' je net tu' 'ach
pronounced almost `a'.  Klingon        tlhIngan Hol'e' net tu'be'.
doesn't do that.
