'''Hiatus''' refers to a break in a vocalic sequence whereby each vowel belongs to a different syllable. For instance, the word ''hiatus'' [haɪ.e.təs] exhibits such a phenomenon where the " . " marks the syllable break between the diphthong [aɪ] and the monophthong [e].

Examples from the Barra dialect of Gaelic are presented below (from Clements 1986):

*[N'i.an] ''bird''
*[bi.əɣ] ''let (him) be''
*[ʀu.əɣ] ''flush in the face''
*[du.an] ''hook''
