In [[phonetics]], '''clipping''' is the process of shortening the [[articulation]] of a [[Phone|phonetic segment]], usually a [[vowel]]. A '''clipped vowel''' is pronounced more quickly than an unclipped vowel, and these clipped vowels are often also [[Reduced vowel|reduced]]. In English, clipping without vowel reduction most often occurs in a [[stressed syllable]] before a [[voiceless consonant]], and clipping with vowel reduction occurs in many unstressed syllables.
