-Potential counterparts do not alternate because both of them are/​one of them is prohibited (or at least strongly discouraged) in non-initial syllables/​other (additionally long/​reduced vowels)+The following table shows the number of potentially alternating counterparts which do not alternate because both of them are/​one of them is prohibited (or at least strongly discouraged) in non-initial syllables. The number in the paranthesis shows the number of the potentially alternating but practically non-alternating pairs if short and long vowels are counted separately.

[[2.inventories:2.2.counterparts:2.2.4.irregular_alternations|§2.2.4.]]). High and long vowels do not undergo rounding harmony (there are no alternations /i/ : /y/, /iː/ : /yː/, /eː/ : /øː/), although any of these vowels can occur in non-initial syllables (at least in Standard Hungarian as it is reflected by orthography).
