| For it is easy to show that with regard to syncope, apocope, elision, and slurring they are treated quite in the same way. |
| While possibly an Anglicised rendering of a Maori name, it might just as easily be the result of apocope in te reo Maori, as with the aforementioned para. |
| In these dialects many words end in a consonant but they cannot be seen as an apocope of an Italian word. |
| Does not the final 'y' of 'tawny' suppose an apostrophe and apocope? |
| The latter indicates the dropping of a vowel or syllable in medial position, and is not a synonym for apocope. |
| Elision refers to the loss of phonemes in any position, and apocope is one form of elision. |
