Abstract
This article offers a graphic model, a visualization of a variant of the vowel [ề] and the corresponding phoneme [ѐ]. We present accurate data for a specific pronunciation in the Bulgarian Rhodope dialect of the village of Glavki, Xanthi region. Based on accurate measurements of the physical parameters of the
particular speech variant of the phoneme [ề], calculated by specialized software, we place the sound in the cardinal vowel system of the International Phonetic Association. A low back vowel is attested, as is the Old Bulgarian vowel 7.
Key words: spectrogram, allophone [ề], Rhodope dialect, vowel 7
