It is possible that written Manx represents a 'midlands' dialect of Douglas and surrounding areas. In Southern Manx, older á and in some cases ó became [æː]. In Northern Manx the same happened, but á sometimes remained [aː] as well. In Northern Manx, older (e)a before nn in the same syllable is diphthongised, while in Southern Manx it is lengthened but remains a monophthong. For example, kione (lit. 'head', cf.
